9 Reasons to Learn Indonesian║Lindsay Does Languages Video 

Saya Orang Somalia Saya Suka Bahasa Indonesia

Indonesian was so easy after studying Korean for years!! I was at the same level after 3 months in Indonesian that took me 4 years to get to in Korean! lolll - R

I've been to learn Indonesian language for 6 years and now work for the Dutch embassy in Indonesia. Indonesian not as easy as that. Indonesian for least has 3 levels speaking and those are needed to speak. yet in fact the Javanese language is much more difficult and confusing rather than Indonesian, there are linguistic hierarchy consist of 3 classes you should use when you are speaking, like ngoko, kromo, and kromo inggil, by which those 3 classes contains totally different vocabulary and grammar, for exp: - I would like to meet him / I wanna meet him - saya hendak menemuinya (formal Indonesian) - aku mau bertemu dengannya (informal Indonesian) - gue pengen ketemu dia (Indonesian slang) - aku tak nemoni dheweke/aku arep nemoni de'e (Javanese ngoko) - kulo kajeng manggihi piyambakipun (Javanese kromo) - dalem kerso manggihi panjenenganipun (Javanese kromo inggil) That's crazy, isn't it?

You inspired me to learn Indonesian! I just ordered my book today

Indonesian is one of the languages who almost made the cut in my crazy 2017 ten languages project. Unfortunately, I had only ten slots but I definitely want to study it someday. And even more now that I saw your video :)

What is the easy way to learn other languages about this;) Indonesian is so really nice(people and language)💕💕 I think that most Thai and Indonesian people tend to have similar habits.. Absolutely,Thailand and Indonesia are good neighbors to each other.. Greetings from Thailand❤❤

No conjugation and no verb tenses? Sign me up!

Reason #8 I would like to add to what makes Indonesian/Malay an easy language to learn besides three mentioned: 1. No gender 2. No singular-plural (a vague concept since plural can be hinted by "-" or the word "banyak/ramai" and "-" is not always used for plural as it can be used for words like "holy-moly" and "hocus-pocus" in English where you change the first letter of the word and sometimes random letters in the words. For example: hingar-bingar, hiruk-pikuk, haru-biru)

So easy to fall in love with a country and its language,Indonesia seems a cool country, thanks for the video! :)))

Indonesia has a lot of local/tradition language from Aceh to Papua, and it's very different word and meaning. We talk each other in local language. But, the special one about Indonesia, when i travelled to Sumatra, Sulawesi, Borneo, Bali, etc, i can talk in Bahasa Indonesia with local people.

I’m native speaker. But for some unknown reason, my bahasa indonesia exam’s result at school had never been higher than 7. While i could get 9 in english. I don’t speak english fluently, though. But I do speak Dutch daily.

I work in customer service. Being able to say pleasantries in a few languages, even ASL, makes people so happy!

Saya suka belajar bahasa Indonesia

Apa kabar? Videonya keren dong! Terima kasih banyak ya. Istri dan anak saya orang Indonesia :)

Most Indonesian are helpful So dont hasitate ask for learning Bahasa Indonesia, they all will glad to assist you...Selamat belajar semoga sukses🙏

Thank you for another great video. Keep up the great work. I always look forward to your emails and advice on languages.

I watched this because I'll be going to a basic Indonesian workshop at my school later today. I was told the language is very easy and it makes me want to learn it (especially after all the struggles I'm experiencing with Korean right now). Out of curiosity, what are other trend languages right now? I didn't even know there were any!

Hi Lindsay, great video! How's your Bahasa Indonesia now? Feel up for some challenge? 😈 Can you please spell this : *Mempertanggung-jawabkan* *Also, try some of this tongue twister (if you dare)* : - Kuku kaki kiri kakekku kaku - Saya sebal sama situ sebab situ suka senyum-senyum sama saya, sehingga sekarang saya suka senyum-senyum sendiri saja. - Dudung, ambilkan dandang di dinding dong, Dung! - Kelapa di Parut, Kepala di Garuk (3x) - Toko-toko di kota kita tutup ketika kita tetap buka toko kita. - Rika tarik-tarik rok Rina dan Rina tarik-tarik rok Rika. Rok Rika robek-robek dan rusak, Rok Rina rusak-rusak dan robek. - Jangan coba-coba cium cucu-cucuku, kalau cuma mau cium cucu-cucuku cuma-cuma. - Ular melingkar-lingkar di pagar bundar Please.. please.. please do that. I bet it will be a lot of fun to see you try spelling some of that! PS : It will not actually help your Indonesian languange though.. sorry 😁

English words that come from Indonesian-Malay include orangutan ("forest man"), ketchup (which originally referred to a wide variety of thick sauces), and amok. Part of the difference between written Indonesian and written Malay--in the Roman alphabet--is due to Indonesia and Malaysia having been Dutch and British colonies respectively: words that start with "Y" in English and Malay start with "J" in Dutch and Indonesian!

What the nice reasons... good luck for everyone who wants to learn bahasa indonesia....

I really want to study Bahasa Indonesia but the online resources are so limited.

I would take up Indonesian, only I really should concentrate on Japanese. Je vais aller à japon en mars, parce que j'ai un nouveau travail comme un enseignant

Especially colloquial Indonesian can be very detailed and dynamic to the point that I could sometimes get lost in the middle of conversation when hanging out with friends back at home. I didn't even know that the word "meper" existed :P We do not have articles! True! This is probably the reason why I went crazy when preparing for german DAF-test. Great video, Lindsay!

I’m part Indonesian and I think it’s fitting for me to know the language of some of my heritage lol

Sangat bagus!

Ummm... Actually, yes, we dont have any verb conjugation, BUT WE HAVE "Imbuhan." It's something like affixes and IT MAKES SOME LEARNERS CRAZY. So yeah, brace urself everyone. And happy learning! Semoga bisa cepat ngomong bahasa Indonesia.

Mie goreng is amazing. And after I get gud at Spanish or Korean (whichever comes first) I'm definitely gonna learn it

Perhaps I'll give Bahasa Indonesia another try after I get decent with Tagalog.

If you are a native in English, and you want to practice Bahasa Indonesia with native, I can help you

When you gave your initial greeting, from some dark place in my subconscious there surfaced the reply _khabar baik!_. IIRC the exchange literally goes, "What news? --- Good news!" I suppose like you could say in English, "How ye doin'? Doin' fine!" Then when you got on to the numbers I started recalling the Malagasy numerals, isa, rua, telo, efatra ... dimi ... folo ... (no don't ask!)

I am currently trying to learn Bahasa Indonesia, so any help would be appreciated! Terima kasih!

... no conjugations, no verb tenses, no articles.... Does that mean all I need to do is cram vocab and I'm 90% of the way to fluency? :o

I've trying to learn Indonesian language for sometimes now. But I don't have many Indonesian friends to talk to. So if anyone interested to help me with language please reply

Actually. Indonesia has the 3rd largest archipelago after canada and greenland.

I'm Indonesian. I think the best reason to learn Indonesian is that Indonesia is a huge country, fourth most populous in the world which 80%-90% of its people can't speak English well.

Nasi goreng di lembur kuring mah Hargana Rp.10.000.

Indonesian a trend language? Don't you know how hard it is to learn multiple languages at once?!!

as a "bule", if you can speak Bahasa Indonesia, you can get more likes and comments.

This is fascinating, but can I give some sort of criticism? I was born in Indonesia, and it's a bit distracting how you pronounce my country. It's pronounce In-doh-NAY-shia.

indonesian people watch this video because they're had a bad score in Indonesian language hahaha
