Let’s Learn Indonesian Language

Hello, Travellers.

Why should you choose Indonesia especially Yogyakarta as your next travelling destination? 

You should visit Yogyakarta, because, we have friendly people, delicious cuisine, wonderful tourism objects, and so many choice of guest house or hotels. 

If you travel to Indonesia, it would be helpful for you if you know some terms in Bahasa Indonesia that will make you easier in communicating with local people.

Now, on this early weekend we will learn about some terms in Indonesian Language (Bahasa Indonesia) which helpful for your travelling.

Let’s start with the terms of Giving Direction.

First thing you have to do if you want to ask for direction is that you need to get someone’s attention. To get someone’s attention, you may say: “Permisi Pak, saya boleh tanya arah ke Malioboro kemana ya?” By asking this question, it means that you meet a male and you want to ask for direction to Malioboro. If someone you meet is female, so you can replace with: “Permisi, Bu, saya boleh tanya arah ke Malioboro kemana ya?”

Next, what you have to know is some terms of direction that he/ she probably mention. You will find that on this following table:

Jalan lurus	Balik arah	Belok kiri	Belok kanan
B di sebelah A	B di antara A dan C	B di belakang A	B berseberangan dengan A
Di pojokan antara jalan Mawar dan Jalan Melati	Menyebrang	Lampu Merah	Bundaran

Alright, at the end when you’ve got the information, don’t forget to express your thanking and parting by saying: “Terimakasih” and “Sampai jumpa.”
