Vacation’ (Liburan)

Voice of Indonesia presents “Let’s Speak Bahasa Indonesia,” a lesson in the Indonesian language on the Radio. We introduce some Indonesian vocabulary and tips on how to use it in a conversation. This segment is a joint initiative of Voice of Indonesia and the Language and Book Development Agency of the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture.  Today’s topic is Liburan in English ‘Vacation’.

Read to this conversation about Liburan in English ‘Vacation’. Ahmad tells Kevin that he will pick him up for tour.

Ahmad

Halo, Pak Kevin?

Kevin

Halo.

Ahmad

Silakan bersiap, Pak!  Sebentar lagi kita berangkat ke Pulau Kelor.

Kevin

Asyik, liburan.

Now, I am going to introduce some vocabularies and expressions related to the topic today.

Silakan bersiap

(2X) which means

Please get ready

Berangkat

 

To leave

Asik liburan

 

Hooray vacation!

Kiriman barangnya telah tiba

 

The shipment has arrived

Aku memenangkannya

 

I won it

When you feel happy you can use the word asik/hore/wow which means ‘hooray’. For example:

-Asik, liburan (2X) which means ‘hooray, vacation!’

-Hore, kiriman barangnya telah tiba (2X) which means ‘hooray the shipment arrived’

-Wow, aku berhasil memenangkannya  (2X) which means ‘wow, I won it!’

That was “Let’s Speak Bhs Indonesia”, a lesson in Bahasa Indonesia or the Indonesian language on the radio. Hopefully, this edition will be useful for those who want to know more about Bahasa Indonesia.
