I officially name my Malay class notes as Jili-guru today.<\/p>\n
Jili is a name; guru means teacher in Malay. Jili-guru means teacher Jili. Just one extra, small thing. Jili-guru is \u53fd\u91cc\u5495\u565c in Chinese. We Chinese use this term to describe a language which is hard to understand. For example, “\u4ed6\u5728\u8bf4\u5565\u5440\uff1f\u53fd\u91cc\u5495\u565c<\/strong>\u7684.” That is, “What the hell is he talking? I get no clue!” Well, I hope my notes can help people understand Malay better, not to take it as \u53fd\u91cc\u5495\u565c when listening to Malay.<\/p>\n We continued on number yesterday. One step further, we learnt ordinal numbers\/postions. The rules for ordinal numbers in Malay is simple. Just add a “Ke” before the number, except the number 1. 1st in Malay is Pertama. I will make the matching table when I have time.<\/p>\n Other things I have learnt in this class:<\/p>\n Malay<\/strong>: Lihat muka surat 2 tempat pertama – 1st place Soalan – Question Malay<\/strong>: Sila baca ayat ketiga Baca – read<\/p>\n Malay<\/strong>: Pilih pasangan Buah is always sit before fruit in Malay. It is kind of modifier for fruit. If you want to say Fruit in general, that is Buah-buahan<\/span><\/p>\n Buah durian – Durian <\/span><\/p>\n Buah epal – Apple<\/span><\/p>\n Buah tembikai – Watermelon<\/span><\/p>\n Buah mangga – Mango<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Awak – You<\/span><\/p>\n Berapa – How many\/much<\/span><\/p>\n Harga – price<\/span><\/p>\n Ialah – it\/they<\/span><\/p>\n Gula – sugar<\/span><\/p>\n Gula-gula – sweet (Noun)<\/span><\/p>\n Manis – sweet (adjective)<\/span><\/p>\n Ada – have<\/span><\/p>\n Pasang – pair<\/span><\/p>\n Pasang – to fix<\/span><\/p>\n Tangan – hand<\/span><\/p>\n Duit\/wang – money<\/span><\/p>\n Malay:<\/strong> Berapa biji buah epal awak ada?<\/p>\n English:<\/strong> How many apples do you have?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I officially name my Malay class notes as Jili-guru today.
