🎯

The 'K-P-T-S' Rule

Always remember that K, P, T, and S disappear. If you see 'mempunyai', remember it's a rare exception to the rule!

🎯

The 'Si' Rule

If an English word ends in '-tion', it almost always ends in '-si' in Indonesian. (e.g., Action -> Aksi).

🎯

The 'KTSP' Secret

If a word starts with K, T, S, or P and is a loanword (like 'Kritik' or 'Proses'), the letter often DOES NOT drop. Example: 'Mengkritik', not 'Menyritik'.

The Dictionary Secret

Always look for the root, not the whole word. If you see 'pemberhentian', look up 'henti'.

Errores comunes

Using 'sama' (same) is imprecise. 'Serumpun' specifically denotes a shared linguistic ancestry.

Wrong: Bahasa ini sama dengan bahasa itu.
Correcto: Bahasa ini serumpun dengan bahasa itu.

Comparative linguistics is a formal discipline requiring a systematic approach, not just random guessing.

Wrong: Saya membandingkan kata itu secara asal.
Correcto: Saya membandingkan kata itu menggunakan metode komparatif.

In linguistics, roots are rarely 'lost'; they are reconstructed through evidence.

Wrong: Akar kata ini sudah hilang.
Correcto: Akar kata ini dapat direkonstruksi.
