| POST CONVERSATION BANTER |
| Becky: So Andi’s father is undergoing treatment at the hospital. Fira, are heart attacks common in Indonesia? |
| Fira: Unfortunately, yes. Heart attacks are at the top of the list of lethal diseases in Indonesia, responsible for 15 percent of deaths. |
| Becky: Heart attacks in Indonesia are caused by many factors of unhealthy lifestyles. Eating junk food, and exercising less often become common in big cities.Fira: And smoking also is still a major threat for health in Indonesia. |
| Becky: How common is smoking in Indonesia? |
| Fira: Data from 2011 showed the number of Indonesian people who smoked ranked third in the world. The number of casualties due to smoking-related diseases has reached 500,000 people annually. |
| Becky: That's a huge number! So, how would you address the problems related to heart attacks then? |
| Fira: I would guess, by promoting a healthy lifestyle, doing exercise regularly, avoiding junk food, eating more vegetables and fruits in meals, lowering stress, and by quitting smoking. |
| Becky: Yes, that's all necessary for good health. Okay, now let’s move on to the vocab. |

| KEY VOCAB AND PHRASES |
| Becky: Let’s take a closer look at the usage of some of the words and phrases from this lesson. |
| Fira: Let’s start with rumah sakit.Becky: It's a noun meaning "hospital" in English. |
| Fira: The word comes from two words, rumah means "house," and sakit means “ill” or "sick." A similar formation of nouns can be seen in kamar mayat, or "mortuary," in which kamar is "room," and mayat is "corpse." |
| Becky: I see. Can you give me a sample in a sentence? |
| Fira: Sure! to refer to the hospital where your friend is taken care of, you might say, rumah sakit tempat dia dirawat terletak di Jalan Sabang. |
| Becky: "The hospital where he is being treated is located at Sabang Street." |
| Fira: Just to add to this, there are more specialized hospitals such as rumah sakit kanker, or "cancer hospital," and rumah sakit mata, or "eye hospital." |
| Becky: I'll make a note of that. And how about the word rawat inap? Fira: It means "in-patient" or "hospitalization" in English. The opposite of rawat inap is rawat jalan, or "outpatient." For example, the sentence: karena kecelakaan yang parah, dia harus di rawat inap di rumah sakit. |
| Becky: "Because of the severe accident, he needs to be hospitalized." And for the last word, sembuh, or "recover"? |
| Fira: It's an adjective used to state a healthy condition after illness or injury. For example, Setelah sembuh, dia mulai berolahraga.Becky: "After recovering, he started to exercise." That’s quite clear for me. Okay, now onto the grammar. |
| GRAMMAR POINT |
| Becky: In this lesson, you’ll learn to express wishes using "hope." We see that Lisa hopes that Andi’s father recovers soon. |
| Fira: To wish for something or to hope in Indonesian, we say; semoga or harap. For example, Aku harap dia cepat sembuh. |
| Becky: "I hope he recovers soon." There are two simple ways to express a "wish" or "hope" in Indonesian sentences. The first is something that the speaker wishes to do. For example, if I hope to pass the national entrance exam, I would say… |
| Fira: Semoga aku lulus ujian nasional . |
| Becky: "Hope I pass the national entrance exam." |
| Fira: Another example is, Semoga hari ini tidak hujan. |
| Becky: "I hope it won’t rain today." What’s the second type of wish in Indonesian? |
| Fira: It's shown in this pattern: subject + harap + object + complement. |
| Becky: Let’s hear it in a sentence please. |
| Fira: If you urged someone to help your friend, you could say, Aku harap kamu bisa membantunya. |
| Becky: "I hope you can help him." Let’s break this down, “I hope” is … |
| Fira: … aku harap |
| Becky: Next is the word “you” |
| Fira: … kamu |
| Becky: And the modal “can” is … |
| Fira: … bisa |
| Becky: And finally the word “help him” is … |
| Fira: … membantunya |
