I should learn some #Malay songs.

Just so that the next time someone in #Indonesia sings a #Hindi song because they think I'll like that, I can sing my favorite "#Indonesian" song in return 😜

Underrated legacy from our time as Hindu-Buddhists: having the word pahala because the strugglebus all non-Arabic-speaking Muslims have in talking about, well, pahala, in a concise manner.

Small language note from my Legend of Zang Hai watch: at one point there's a small joke/riposte over the name Zhinu because why would you name your kid with Nu which stands for 'slave', but apparently it also means young child.

Reading elsewhere this isn't just a fictional point but an actual mandarin bit, so that's cool that's 20 seconds of dialogue that just encapsulated a key point of grief between Malay and Indonesian speakers lmao (in Malay budak is very straightforwardly a child; in Indonesian that's a foot servant or slave more than the other meaning. But no Malay speaker who's not used to Indonesian would even guess the word they'd actually use, which is bocil)

The interesting thing about Sino-Malay literature is its language is not that heavily influenced by Chinese dialects (at least to me). It's just they were written and published by Chinese Indonesians. The difference to the "canon" Indonesian literature is the usage of everyday (Low) Malay language, not the High Malay taught in schools.

The houseboat “Rumah Saya” is a motor tjalk located at the intersection of Keizersgracht and Amstel. This historic vessel, built in 1893, measures approximately 16.7 meters in length and 3.7 meters in width. ⛵️

In Indonesian, rumah saya literally means “my house” (rumah = house, saya = I/my). In Malay, it has the same meaning. 🇮🇩🇲🇾🏠

The houseboat is situated in a prime location, close to the “National Opera”, “Koninklijk Theater Carré”, “Museum De Hermitage”, and the “Magere Brug”. 📸

TFW you're trying not to commit further ableism because you've been using the word "stupid" whenever I'm sharing news about the Palestinian genocide but that's because I have dozens of words for what Zionists are but English apparently only have one. So I guess I'm gonna have to teach anglophones what the hell are tolol, tongong, bengong, mingung, lemah, jahil, otak ayam, bebal, bahlul, goblok, dungu, picik, pandir, singkat etcetcetc

Anyone could help shed some light ? What would be the feminization/female form of that name or something close ? I'd offer Bustanette but... #Malay #Indonesian
