Why haven't you learn Bahasa Indonesia yet?
Your country doesn't have jobs for a slave race like filipinos
You just answered your question.
Isn't the Philippines one of the rich countries in Asia like Vietnam or Taiwan?
I thought you were describing English at first.
rich countries
Viet Nam
Nice joke leaf
doesn't have jobs for a slave race
OP pics is literally that though, a lot of chuuba getting the hell out while ours still willingly being fucked in the ass by Yagoo is still much better than 99% of the jobs here

You teach me then
i like alcohol and pork and don't like muslims
Are indonesian women hot?
no
Risu used to be my oshi but she kinda fell off, only does Indonensian streams now. I'm guessing she's still poor because of it
Bahasa Indonesia
Literally "Indonesian Language"
why don't you guys give it a proper name?
She just lazy. Always lazy. Truly Indog spirit.
It was a way to make Indonesia more unified.
Gura's an indog?
redbull me on the differences between Malaysian, Indonesian and all other "Malay" languages.
Some sources seem to indicate that they're all the same shit, whereas other sources act like they're completely different languages (e.g. claiming that Terengganu Malay is a different language from Standard Malaysian, that Sarawak Malay is very distinct from Standard Malaysian, etc.)
Also, if one had to choose between Indonesian and (standard) Malaysian, wouldn't it make more sense to choose the latter? After all, according to Wiki, the standard Malaysian is the variety used in Singapoor, which is more relevant by virtue of being a firstie country.
No, plus a lot of them wear retarded headscarves.
he doesnt know
Indonesian and Malaysian have same root, but it's more like "similar but not the same"
BI: Bahasa Indonesia
BM: Bahasa Melayu Malaysia
example:
welcome to Sentinel Island
BI: Selamat datang "di" Pulau Sentinel (based on Dutch, welkom "in" Pulau Sentinel)
BM: Selamat datang "ke" Pulau Sentinel(based on English, Welcome "to" Pulau Sentinel)
alphabet (ABC++) pronunciation
BI is from Dutch
BM is from English
also, the -tas and -ti
BI got it from Dutch -teit, and afterwards changed it to Latin -tas
BM got it from English -ty
Decimal separator
BI uses comma, while BM uses point
BI: 24-hour clock
BM: 12-hour clock
the -Si and Sen
BI doesn't have -Sen suffix, it's -Si (Dutch -tie), but BM has it from English -Ion (imigresen) and also -Si via Indonesian (aksi)
Most BI medical words also came from Dutch, idk about BM.
BI: Kanker (Dutch: Kanker)
BM: Kanser (English: Cancer)
If you ask Malaysian physicians about Rontgen, i am sure they won't get it
so, basically, BI (and Malay in Indonesia, such as Riau Malay) has been mostly influenced by the Dutch language while BM by English
Because I've only ever met a single Indonesian person despite traveling all throughout firstie Asia.
And if a people aren't in a firstie environment then I don't need to talk with them. They can learn English.
What about cases?
because SEA languages are one of the most godawful sounding languages in existence, it's like some african language with too many Ks and Rs
Because "Malay" is also an umbrella of languages which difference from each other can range from American-British English to Scottish-English
Most of these also apply to Esperanto.
By that logic, does any language have a "proper" name? "English" is presumably short for "the English language", as in the language of the people of England.
they are lying, the little girls are cute

quite literally a language made for simple-minded soulless bug people, also very nasally
I think African languages sound nice. I think them and Chinese sound very interesting and strange. Sing songy even.

So English is a caveman tongue? As are about 75% of the languages on Earth?

Most languages in Europe regularly reform their orthography to keep up with the spoken language, English is the odd one out here.

in this respect yes but we make up for it with our spelling unmatched by any other language in the world (except maybe dzongkha or some shit)

standard indonesian is quite literally a constructed language
No. Stay the fuck away. Go simping anywhere else.
constructed language
Elaborate
Truly ugly languages. The physical sounds are just very unpleasant to hear.

Orthography isn't language, though. English would still be English even if you wrote it in Cyrillic.
standard indonesian is quite literally a constructed language
It's a standardized register of Malay, so as constructed as, say, standard German.
your government had to make a new standardized language out of malay and a bunch of islandtongues because nobody could understand each other
moreover none of you even speak it properly, everyone on the internet writes 70% in indonesian and 30% in english, the most embarrassing fate any language can have in the modern era
INDONESIA MENTIONED!!! INDO PRIDE WORLDWIDE!!!
Yeah and English is 25% French and another 25% Latin, so?
new standardized language out of malay and a bunch of islandtongues
It's just Malay ya daft
Indog speak has the same muttness as Bong speak, complete with being raped by former ruler tongue (ik ook and frog)
