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.
