TheIndonesian is the official language of the Republic ofIndonesia.

It was originally from Malay, but the context created with the accession to independence in 1945 resulted in its own development which made Indonesian different from classical Malay.

With 230 million inhabitants scattered in many local communities, Indonesian is not often their mother tongue as Indonesians often speak indigenous local languages ​​such as Javanese, Balinese, Betawi, Sundanese, Minang, palembang, bugis, and papuan. Its purpose is to serve as a unifying language among all the inhabitants of Indonesia.

Grammar

Pronoun

Verb

The sentences follow a structure: subject-verb-object.

Saya makan nasi : I'm eating rice

There is no agreement of the verb with its subject, nor of conjugation as a function of tense. On the other hand, it is possible to add prefixes and suffixes to the verb to add nuances and create derivatives.

Nasi dimakan kepada saya : rice is eaten by me

We mark the negation with "tidak »Placed before the verb:

Saya tidak makan nasi : I born eat not rice

To mark the tenses, we use markers placed before the verb or we simply indicate the moment when the action takes place:

Saya sudah makan nasi : I have already ate rice (past)

Saya belum makan nasi : I do not have not yet ate rice (past)

Saya sedang makan nasi : I am in the process of eat rice (present)

Saya makan nasi besok : I will eat rice tomorrow (future)

Strictly speaking, the verb "to be" does not exist. Instead, the attribute follows the subject.

Ini mobil saya : this is my car / this is my car

Itu besar : it's big / this is big

Adjective

Adjectives are placed after the noun.

Ada nasi goreng : there is fried rice

Plural of nouns

Often, the plural of nouns is simply indicated by a doubling. You can also simply specify their number or use the word "banyak " (many)

Ada anak-anak : there are children

Saya punya due to mobil : I have two cars

Ada banyak orang di sini : there are a lot of people here

Please note, there are a few exceptions:

Ada laba-laba : there is a spider (singular)

List of phrases

For this guide, we offer expressions that correspond to a Western conception of things. For example, greetings are those accepted as the equivalent of Western expressions such as "Hello", "Goodbye", "How are you?" In reality, Indonesians do not traditionally greet each other this way. However, the rapid urbanization of the 1980s, linked to the economic take-off, and its consequences, such as the generalization of the telephone, led to the adoption of this type of polite formulas.

We use the polite form for all expressions, on the assumption that you will be speaking most of the time with people you do not know.

In the pronunciation that can be read directly as French words:

• the dashes make it possible not to forget that we do not nasalize the vowels (example: ang is pronounced a-ngue and not angue)
• the dots at the end of a word remind that when the word ends with k, you must mark the stop at the end of the word (example: tidak pronounced tida. and not tidaque)
• the uppercase h reminds you to pronounce the h as in English (example: hidup is pronounced Hidoupe and not idoupe)
