Di Australia kami punya banyak unique phrases like ‘drier than a nuns nasty’ or ‘we’re not here to fuck spiders’. What phrases do you have in your region of Indonesia?
The sentences are split into 10 levels of 1,000 sentences each, played in order of difficulty. They've all been proofread and approved by native speakers.
Clozemaster is a web and mobile app used to expand your vocabulary in Indonesian (and a bunch of other languages) fast by playing through thousands of fill-in-the-blank sentences. You can sign up and play for free, and there's a paid version that provides unlimited access.
Hope you find it useful! We'll be aiming to release more content soon.
Liburan kan ngerujuk pada arti istirahat kan, Kalo liburannya jalan² apakah termasuk istirahat atau membuat badan capek?
Pada game Among Us, ada kata "Cooldown".
Kira-kira ada tidak ya, padanan secara bahasa Indonesia untuk kata tersebut? Kalau saya pribadi sih, semacam "waktu tunggu"? heheh.
For example: kill cooldown → waktu tunggu serangan
Terima kasih sebelumnya.
halo!

Hey everyone,
So Ive just finished a 12 month intensive Indonesian language course for my work and looking for stuff to keep my skills up.
I don't really have time for a tutor, given I'm back to my full time job now as well as parenting life. Apart from Babel or Duolingo and Indoensian news, do you have any other suggestions on what I could use?
Thanks
Hi, I just wanted to ask if anyone can recommend a book for learning Indonesian? I'm not really fond of Duolingo and learn better with something with structure, but there's not a lot of books online to learn Indonesian? 🤷♀️ Websites work too, if there is something similar to 'How To Study Korean'; preferably something that teaches grammar too. Thank you. 😅
Hi everyone! I've been thinking of being an online tutor for people who wanna learn Indonesian, whether you're completely new or wanna improve conversational Indonesian. I'm a 19 yo medstudent who has a passion in teaching and I can speak English fairly well. My rate is $6/hour or rp90k/hour. Is anyone interested?
Hi all, I'm Sophie, I would like to offer an exchange language lesson! We can set schedule and time. If you interested, you can tell me what language your native language is and feel free to DM me 💙
(Closed 💙😊)
What's the difference? Do certain ones get used in a certain context?
I thought they both meant "still" as in to still be doing something. Is there a nuance I am missing here, or is this Duolingo's mistake?
Hello everyone, I’ve been learning Bahasa Indonesia for 2 months and I feel like I have a grasp of basic concepts and words, for example I can say:
Aku berbicara sedikit bahasa Indonesia, atau aku mau pergi ke pasar.
But I can’t say things like:
I have to go home soon, or my job is engineering.
I struggle with the amount of unique words for different things, but I feel like I have a grasp on very basic communication.
Does anyone have any advice on how to learn more words?
Hiiii. I'm actually from the Philippines but I love Indonesian sooongs. I also love the food, culture, and the people. Aku suka lagu lagu kaya:
Sialan - Juicy Luicy
Pandangan Pertama - RAN
Dekat Di Hati - RAN
Kisah Romantis - Glenn Fredly
Kenangan Manis - Pamungkas
Apa lagi yg kalian suggest? Lagu lagu yg sama genrenya atau upbeat begitu. Makasih banyaaaak.
Saya mengunjungi Indonesia untuk urusan pekerjaan tahun ini dan saya mencoba mempelajari bahasa Indonesia sebagai bentuk penghormatan. Saat ini saya menggunakan Duolingo tetapi saya bertanya-tanya hal-hal apa saja yang perlu saya pastikan saya ketahui sebelum berkunjung. And yes i used google translate to write this post.
Hai semuanya! Nama saya Max, saya orang Italia, dari kota Roma dan saya ingin belajar bahasa Indonesia. Saya tua dan jelek, dan saya sudah punya keluarga, jadi saya tidak mencari pacar (semua aplikasi yang saya coba untuk belajar bahasa penuh dengan orang yang mencari pacar!). Saat ini saya menjadi sukarelawan di berbagai belahan dunia dan akan menghabiskan dua tahun di Indonesia. Saya telah belajar bahasa Indonesia sejak September, saya mencari beberapa orang Indonesia yang ingin belajar bahasa Italia dan membantu saya mempraktikkan bahasa Indonesia. Apakah ada yang benar-benar bisa membantu saya?
I need help. I was talking with one of my Indonesian friends, I understand most of them but then they use this word which is “namatin”. What does that mean?
Hola!! I’m currently studying Indonesian and I want to improve as fast as I can in a month because I’m moving to Ubud. When learning a language I prefer to use content that native speakers consume. I’m looking for Indonesian resources not specifically done for learners but media that it’s for natives.
Like popular songs, singers, TV shows I can watch. Any ideas??
Thanks! 🙏🏼
Selamat sore, saya dari Filipina dan saya belajar bahasa Indonesia di Duolingo dan kemudian menonton beberapa video berbahasa Indonesia sejak tahun 2021. Saya merasa bahwa beberapa kata bahasa Indonesia sama atau hampir sama dengan bahasa asli saya, bahasa Tagalog. Sebenarnya, saya tidak punya orang relatif yang tinggal di Indonesia tetapi sejak saya belajar bahasa Indonesia, saya sekarang bisa membuat komunikasi dengan kenalan Indonesia saya.
(Good afternoon, I am from the Philippines and I learn Indonesia on Duolingo and eventually watch Indonesian videos since 2021. I feel that some Indonesian words are the same or almost the same with my native language, Tagalog. In reality, I do not have relatives that live in Indonesia but since I learn Indonesian, I can now make communication with my Indonesian acquaintances.)
I just returned from visiting Indonesia… Bali, Surabaya, and Jakarta and I was shocked by the differences in quality and flavor at American fast food chains like McDonald’s, Popeyes, and KFC. The food tasted so much better there compared to the States! Could it be that Indonesians have higher expectations for flavor and quality, pushing these brands to step up their game with fresher ingredients and better preparation? I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences!
I am having another article to reference in my dissertation written by an Indonesian researcher named 'Ahmad Jum’a Khatib Nur Ali.' Which one is his first name and which is his last name? I emailed him days ago and got no answer back.
Hey guys,
So I’ve been studying abroad for a while, and one thing I really love is using shopping assistant extensions like Honey. Extension ini bikin belanja online jadi lebih gampang karena bisa:
• Track price history jadi kita tahu diskon beneran atau cmn trik marketing.
• Auto apply and redeem coupon on checkout (jadi barang yg dibeli bisa diskon sedikit).
• Price comparison harga di beberapa website untuk cari opsi termurah.
• Check if a website is legit atau a potential scam.
Sekarang, kalau ngelihat e-commerce di Indonesia (Tokopedia, Shopee, Bukalapak, dll.), kayaknya nggak ada tools kayak gini, ya? Atau gw aja yang nggak tahu?
Menurut kalian, ini jadi masalah nggak? Kira-kira shopping extension kyk gini bakal berguna gak ya di Indo?
Penasaran banget pengen denger pendapat kalian!
