      Indos love to abriviate everything, an actual sentence that can actually be read can be literally like this
      Dh mkn blm, klo blm tr psn pke gjk aj.
      Formal would be :
      Sudah makan belum, kalau belum nanti pesan pakai gojek saja.
      With out proper knowledge of the vocabulary, you shouldn't touch casual speak yet
      but dw, most indonesian will switch to formal speech/writing when they see you using Formal Indonesian

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but Indonesian (and Malay more broadly) is often a language that's spoken to communicate broadly across the country/region, and many people speak a local language at home (Javanese, Sundanese, Madurese, etc.).

    Why indonesian language are easy:
    1). No verbs, F U
    2). Gender neutral noun, why complicate things when it can be easier
    4). No plural, just add number, easy.
    5). Extending the first point, u can just build ur sentence word by word, no complex order, anything goes as long it make sense
    6). Phonetic language, means no funny inconsistent spelling, F english
    7). Extending point sixth, the alphabet used are the most used alphabet, roman letters, ofc phonetic
    8). Extending point seventh, no cases, u know, those funny alphabet accessories.
    9). No tones
    Maybe there is other, but couldn't rly come up with more, i mean i wouldn't think all of those when speaking indonesian
    Edit: there is reason why its easy, it was made so, indonesia are an archipelago country, originally a country that made up of so many island, means many ethnicities, and lot of languages, each region has its own languages, so u will find most of Indonesian mother tongue to be not Indonesia language(not the case to people who move to major cities and lost contact to their origin ethnics), instead indonesia are the 2nd language to most of those peps so it was made easy (its was dubbed the language that connects all Indonesian, being the national language that used for news, works, and studies language). But bcs of this Indonesia language are mostly used with slang in daily convs, and the slang usually depend on the region so most people that are too used with those will even have a worse grade on the subject than english, and sometime having a hard time when going to other region. Ofc only for slang-fied Indonesian, u can still go by easy with basic Indonesian.

  • @saki3769
    @saki3769 Před rokem +6

    As someone currently living in indonesia for 5 years now i can pinpoint 3 reasons why it is easy
    1st is because due to the long history of colonization from the dutch many of indonesian words uses "localized" version of either dutch or english (one example i can think of from the top of my head is police>polisi) and after we were "Liberated" by the japanese we also used a bit (or most of the time,simillar sounding words where their meanings are really close,such as the suki-suka in here)
    2nd: most words are pronounced exatly as it's written,no "double o is pronounced u" type of thing,if there's 2 then you say it a bit longer instead (i'm sorry i can't think an example for this but you get the idea)
    3rd: in indonesia however exist "imbuhan" which to oversimplify things: it's basically an opening and ending to a word,kinda like tense in english (like "makan" to "memakan" or "makanan" which all three have different meaning),if you master this then everything they say starts to make sense
    Hence why indonesian is easy to learn by english,japanese or malay

    Can't say for certain if this generalises to Indonesian, but Malay is dead easy to get started with. It's got mostly simple phonemes; spelling maps roughly one-to-one with pronunciation; words don't usually have multiple meanings; there are no verb tenses or grammatical gender for the most part; descriptors almost always follow the described, e.g. adjectives after nouns, adverbs after verbs, predicate after subject; there's nothing like subject-verb agreement. All that good stuff.
    Where it gets difficult for me personally (and I am a native Malay speaker) are the little details like verb affixes. Malay is an agglutinative language, and verbs can carry different meaning depending on what affix you attach to it, and it kept me from getting an A in Bahasa Melayu for most of my elementary years. Also, even just looking at Peninsular Malay alone, there are a ton of dialects. I think I've once read an old text on the Malay language by a British orientalist that said something like you get different dialects of Malay for every river you come across, and sometimes even for every settlement along a branch of a river. Indonesia has an enormous number of languages in its isles other than Indonesian Malay, so some speakers may code-switch between them in conversations, making communication harder in practice.
    So yeah, Malay - presumably both Malaysian and Indonesian - is a pretty easy language to begin with and you can get to a decent level of understandibility with a bit of effort, but to really master is a different ordeal. I'll fully admit I'm more confident in my English than my Malay, as embarrassing as it is to say.

    Japanese is kind of hard to learn, simply due to sheer volume. Its basically 3 different languages combined together. First there's the normal spoken. There there is Kanji. And then there is the reading of Kanji. And then there's all the borrowed words for a multitude of different languages. And then its one of the few languages out there that have Subject, object, verb, instead of the subject verb object (i.e. "the sport I played" vs "I played the sport"), so it doesn't come intuitively to people who don't have that grammar style.

    I recommend watching either Ollie, Reine, or Anya if any of you wanna learn some Indonesian but mainly Ollie bcs Reine tend to mix all 3 languages in a sentence and Anya... I don't have to explain about Anya right LMAO THE honorary JP member (but when she DOES speak Indonesian, her pronunciation is one of the easiest to digest). Ollie's great, especially whenever she's just chatting and not playing any games because she mostly makes sure to say most sentences in ALL 3 languages especially when answering viewers' questions. Her pronunciation is clear and solid, and you'll never have to worry about not hearing her, in fact, it's recommended by the hololive wiki that you turn your volume down whenever you watch her HAHA. Jokes aside, she even sometimes talks about the language itself and explains all sorts of things like the grammars and stuff and she'd be more than willing to answer your questions regarding learning Indonesian.
    All of ID's 2nd Gen member can fluently speak ID, EN, and JP and that's a deliberate move from YAGOO as he explained in the anniversary TV interview you can find the clips of, because his plan for them was to make them the bridge between all branches and viewers bases. And I may be biased because I'm Indonesian, but I'd say everything is going well according to plan.
    On a side note:
    If your first language is Japanese and you wanna learn Indonesian, or you're an English speaker who can speak Japanese and wanna learn Indonesian, you'll most probably have an easy time learning it. Like learning Japanese, you'd have to start with learning how to speak formally first to understand the foundations, but you don't have to worry about having to speak formally to Indonesian strangers because we're okay with casual speech as long as you don't say anything explicitly and intentionally rude lmao. We tend to gloss over grammar and tenses unless we really need it (usually during formal stuffs like writing a report at work and such) and the way we pronounce words and letter are mostly uniform across the board. Except for the letter "e". Sometimes it's like the e in the "le" of "letter", sometimes it's like the e in the "ter" of letter.
    The only hard part of Indonesian I can think of is that we have this thing: "ng". Now, you might think: "But Gori, that's nothing new, we also have that in English, see?", but here's the catch... Sometimes, we put it IN FRONT of the words. I brought this up because Biboo seemed to struggle with it when Kaela was trying to teach her about it lmao. Here's an example: the Indonesian equivalent of erasing the g from an (v)-ing verb (like livin', drawin', goin'', etc.) is erasing the me- from meng-(v), then adding e after the ng. So, drawing (as verb) = menggambar. Draw (verb)/Picture (noun) = Gambar. But drawin (the slightly casual form of drawing) = NGEgambar. The e after the ng in NGE is pronounced like the a in "a comment". How you pronounce the NG tho... I can't explain that thru text. You just need to watch of the Holo ID girls' streams until you spot one, I guess ;) *wink wink PLS WATCH THEM, THEY DESERVE MORE RECOGNITION AND I'M NOT JUST SAYING THIS BECAUSE I'M INDONESIAN FR FR ON GOD* .

    From what's being suggested(some of the skimmed comments), it sounds more like maybe Indonesian isn't as picky about grammatic structure. Although saying it'd be easy might involve a little nativity bias(as Sora mentions, saying Japanese is difficult is harder to comprehend as someone who's a native, and you can make that distinction with most languages).
    Other comments about how some of the words can span into other languages is another detail that you could probably apply to most languages that've encountered other cultures... Once the cultures intermingle, words begin to cross pollinate. Once they cultural integration progresses far or for long enough, words can even become part of the language. Then there's looking at these things from a colonial POV, and that tends to supercharge the process as the newcomers force their culture onto the natives instead of the other way round.
