- Lucas: Hey Luna, ready for another episode? We're going to talk about something everyone deals with—the weather. Luna: Oh, I love weather chat. It's such a safe topic, right? Lucas: Exactly. And it's super useful in Malay. Today we're learning how to say 'rain' and 'hot'. Luna: Okay, I'm already sweating just thinking about hot. Let's do it. Lucas: First word, rain. In Malay, it's 'hujan'. Say it with me: 'hujan'. Luna: 'Hujan'. That's kind of fun to say. Lucas: It is. Now, 'hot'—especially for the weather—is 'panas'. 'Panas'. Luna: 'Panas'. Oh, that sounds warm already. Lucas: Now let's put them in a sentence. 'Hari ini hujan.' That means 'Today is rainy' or 'Today it rains'. Luna: 'Hari ini hujan.' So 'hari ini' is 'today'? Lucas: Right, we've seen 'hari ini' before with time words. So 'Hari ini hujan.' Try it. Luna: 'Hari ini hujan.' Lucas: Perfect. And for sunny and hot: 'Hari ini panas.' 'Today is hot.' Your turn. Luna: 'Hari ini panas.' So if I look outside, I could say that when it's scorching. Lucas: Exactly. And one more useful one: 'Saya suka hujan.' I like rain. Luna: Oh, using 'suka' again. 'Saya suka hujan.' I do like rain, actually. Lucas: Good. Now, you know what, we've been putting out these episodes for a while, and every little bit of support helps keep this going.

Luna: If it's raining, 'Hari ini hujan.' Lucas: And if it's blazing, 'Hari ini panas.' Luna: What about if it's both? Like rain but hot? Lucas: Well, you could just say 'Hujan' and 'Panas' back to back. But that might be a strange day. Luna: like a steamy jungle afternoon. I'm into it. Lucas: Let's do a quick scene. You're on a call, and someone asks how the weather is where you are. What do you say? Luna: If I'm looking at sunshine, I'd say 'Hari ini panas.' Lucas: Nice. And if I'm stuck in a downpour, 'Hari ini hujan.' Luna: And if I'm feeling poetic, 'Saya suka hujan.' Lucas: There you go. Let's review all four phrases: 'hujan', 'panas', 'Hari ini hujan.', 'Hari ini panas.', and 'Saya suka hujan.'. Luna: I think I've got it. Let's try: 'Hari ini panas.' Lucas: Perfect. And 'Saya suka hujan.' Luna: 'Saya suka hujan.' Yes, I do like rain. It's cozy. Lucas: Well, that's a wrap for today. Keep practicing these weather words, and you'll be ready to chat about the sky in no time. Luna: Thanks for joining us on Fexingo. See you next time!
