Mostly because we need real-life native friends, the lack of daily chit-chat with Indonesian pals makes it a tad challenging. Imagine trying to learn slang without having anyone to chat with - not impossible, just a bit lonely in the linguistic journey. :)
I don't know much about yhr language but i believe it must be interesting to learn it
Hi, I am from Malaysia, I grew up speaking English and studied in English. However, in order to get a full certificate we have to pass our Bahasa Malaysia Examination. I studied by using the 'suku-kata; which means phonics. I found that it was easier than English spelling as we follow the sound. Example: 'makan' which is eat. We break up the letters 'ma' 'kan'. I listened to the local news. The best was when I was teaching in school I learnt a lot of the meanings from the teachers who taught 'Bahasa Malaysia' I communicated with the Malay teachers to pronounce correctly. Communication is the best way of learning any language. We also need to know the language when dealing with Government agencies. All the notices and information is written in Malay. The officials usually communicate in Bahasa Malaysia, though they can be fluent in English. We all speak English at home and watch English movies. However, I talk in Bahasa Malaysia to the cleaning lady and market vendors.
