Luna: Oh, I love this! I've been wanting to talk about how I get to work. Lucas: Perfect. First word: kereta. That means 'car'. Luna: Kereta. Kereta. Lucas: Good. Kereta. Say it with me: kereta. Luna: Kereta. Lucas: Now second word: bas. That's 'bus'. Luna: Bas. Short and easy. Lucas: Exactly. Now let's put bas in a phrase. Saya naik bas. That means 'I take the bus'. Luna: Saya naik bas. Saya naik bas. Lucas: Great. Saya means 'I', naik means 'take' or 'ride'. So Saya naik bas. Luna: So if I want to say 'I take the car', it's Saya naik kereta? Lucas: Yes! Exactly. Saya naik kereta. Luna: Oh, that's so logical. Lucas: Now another phrase: Ini kereta saya. This is my car. Luna: Ini kereta saya. Ini kereta saya. Lucas: Ini means 'this', kereta is 'car', saya is 'my'. So 'this is my car'. Luna: And if I want to say 'this is my bus', it's Ini bas saya? Lucas: Perfect! Ini bas saya. Luna: Alright, let me practice all of them. Kereta, bas, Saya naik bas, Ini kereta saya. Lucas: You're doing great. Let's do a little scene. Imagine you're at a bus stop. Luna: Okay. Lucas: I ask you, 'How do you get to work?' You say, 'Saya naik bas.' Luna: Saya naik bas. Lucas: Then I point to a car and say, 'Ini kereta saya.' Luna: Oh, so you drive to work. Nice. Lucas: Exactly. Now let's review. Kereta? Luna: Car. Lucas: Bas? Luna: Bus. Lucas: Saya naik bas? Luna: I take the bus. Lucas: Ini kereta saya? Luna: This is my car. Lucas: See? Easy. Now let's do a quick exchange. I'll say a phrase in English, you say it in Malay. Luna: Bring it on. Lucas: I take the bus. Luna: Saya naik bas. Lucas: This is my car. Luna: Ini kereta saya. Lucas: You're nailing it. One more time: kereta. Luna: Kereta. Lucas: Bas. Luna: Bas. Lucas: Great. So remember, next time you see a bus, you can say 'Bas!' and impress your friends. Luna: Or if I see a cool car, I can say 'Kereta!'. Lucas: Exactly. That's all for today. Practice these words and phrases until next time. Luna: Thanks for learning with Fexingo!
