My First English Class #1

Ok for this period I have been taking english class, and for the first time in this meeting we have discussed about “Difference between Indonesian Language ( Bahasa ) and English”.
At the first meeting we have just discussed about Noun Phrase Formation as the difference between Bahasa and English, so I become curious about “what else the difference between Bahasa and English”.

So what difference between them ???

Actually Bahasa and English have the same structure, For the example

English = I go to campus

Bahasa = Saya pergi ke kampus

English = I love you

Bahasa = Saya cinta kamu

But there are few difference between Bahasa and English such as

1. Personal Pronoun

There are no differences between personal pronoun and possesive pronoun in Bahasa but in English there are differences.
Example

Basaha = Saya
English = I, me , my

Example

I eat rice = saya makan nasi
You call me = Kamu memanggil saya
it’s my Chocolate = Ini coklat saya

Hmmmm…. so you get what difference between them, in Bahasa we just use “Saya” for personal pronoun or possesive pronoun and that main in Bahasa there is no
personal pronoun and possesive pronoun. :D

2. Noun Phrase Formation

hmmm… in Bahasa the position of Noun is before the modifier (in Bahasa we can say DM its mean Diterangkan Menerangkan ) and for English the position of Noun is ater the modifier
( in Bahasa we can say MD its mean Menerangkan Diterangkan )

For the Example

Bahasa = topi merah
English = red hat

Bahasa = Kucing hitam
English = Black Cat

3. Article ,
Example for article is a,the,an etc.

In bahasa, sometimes you can skip the article.
Example :

English = I am Student

Bahasa = Saya Murid

4. To be

You dont need to translate “to be” in cassual or colloquial language,

Example =

English = My name is Dimas

Bahasa = Nama saya Dimas

5. Tenses

I think in Bahasa there are no tenses, we can know about past, future, or present from time markers or even from the context.
In bahasa there are not verb changes.

Example

English = I am washing a car .
Bahasa = Saya ( sedang )mencuci mobil.

English = I was washed a car yesterday.
Bahasa = Saya mencuci mobil (kemarin).

6. Plural

Example

English = apple
Bahasa = apel

english = apples
bahasa = apel-apel

english = 2 apples
bahasa = 2 apel ( not 2 apel-apel )

hehehhehhe…
My apologize for my article, if any mistake in it. :D

Lets the dream begin
~adim~
