Thread: Indonesian

Any questions about Indonesian? I'm ready to answer!

Can you record yourself to listen how it sounds?

I like Indonesian. I know many people who speak it.

Oh wait! Malay and Indonesian are the same aren't they?

Yes, Indonesian are Malay almost same. But there are some differences. There are some words which rarely used in Indonesian but used in Malay. But if you a native Indonesian and go to Malaysia, you can understand what do they speak.

Some usage are quite different though. For example, Indonesian refer to car with the word "mobil" while Malay refer to it with the word "kereta".
