VOI - Voice of Indonesia | RRI - Radio Republik Indonesia

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 the cake is very delicious(Kuenya Enak Sekali).

Read to this conversation about the cake is very delicious(Kuenya Enak Sekali). Kevin praises the food that Rama’s mother cooks.

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

A positive compliment usually makes people proud or motivated. If you want to honestly express the delicacy of someone's cooking, you can use the expression, Enak sekali which means very delicious. In the dialogue, Kevin praises the food that Rama’s mother cooks by saying Wah, kue ini enak sekali, Bu which means ‘this cake is very delicious, mom’.  

You also can use expression lezat, nikmat, gurih to express your compliment by using expression Terima kasih, aku tersanjung which means ‘thank you for your compliment’ or ouh Benarkah? terima kasih which means ‘ouh really, thank you’.

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.
