According to my experience, there are some common mistakes in translating bahasa to english.
Examples:
lampu merah = red light, should be traffic light
kacamata hitam = black glasses, should be sun glasses
foto = photo, should be photograph
If you find other common mistakes, please post them here... ;D
This one is really disturbing me ....
we often hear people says, " Aduh...gue boring sekali deh ".
maksudnya sih dia lagi bosen sekali..
but actually....
boring = membosankan
while bored = bosan.
thus if u say " saya boring sekali "
berarti kamu emang membosankan....
hehe Bored already ?
^wakakaka it's so funny =))
one big noticable mistake is "waroeng" :hammer:
how did someone ever come up with this waroeng ide ??? :|
error
close light=turn off
open light = turn on
delicious crazy(enak gila!) = Yummy..
delicious only(enak aja) = no way...

IMHO, "photo" is quite common you know... using "photo" is not some mistake, it's true

Singaporean says: "I know lar.... You like to follow - follow our song."
Why u follow me? This should be: Why do you follow me? or why r u following me?
We had "my
makan place" in Medan. It's a restaurant.... I've never been there yet.
