Halo semuanya, nama saya Fira Hi everybody! I’m Fira. |
Welcome to IndonesianPod101.com’s “Bahasa Indonesia dalam 3 menit”. The fastest, easiest, and most fun way to learn Indonesian. |
In the last lesson, we learned how to talk about age. This time we will learn to talk about things you own. |
Apakah kamu punya mobil? “Do you have a car?” |
[slowly] Apakah kamu punya mobil? |
Let’s take a closer look at this question. |
Apakah kamu means “Do you”. |
Punya means “Have” or “Own”. |
Mobil means “car” |
So if you *do* have a car, how can you answer this question? |
it’s really simple! |
Iya, saya punya mobil. Which literally means “Yes, I have car” |
[slowly] Iya, saya punya mobil. |
So say for example, that a classmate wants to borrow a pen from you. He might ask, Apakah kamu punya pulpen? Which is “Do you have a pen?” |
If you only have a red pen, you can answer Iya, saya punya pulpen merah. “Yes, I have a red pen.” |
Okay, so now let’s look at the FORMAL way to ask someone if he or she has something. |
You just have to replace the word punya with memiliki. |
For example... |
Apakah kamu memiliki mobil? “Do you have a car?” |
[slowly] Apakah kamu memiliki mobil? |
Now it’s time for Fira’s Insights. |
If you want to sound really natural when asking if someone has something, you can use the word non. Here’s an example. |
Kamu punya anjing, tidak? This literally means “You have a dog, no?” |
You just add the little word tidak after the sentence. It makes the whole sentence sound like a question. |
In recent lessons, we have learned about locations, nationality, how to tell your age and possessions. |
Next time we’ll learn how to say “I’m not” and “I don’t have”. |
Did you know to do negation in Indonesian? |
I'll be waiting for you with the answer in the next Bahasa Indonesia dalam 3 menit. |
Sampai jumpa lagi! |
