Review Summary

  • Noun (e.g., Kepala)
  • [Part] + saya + sakit
  • Saya + merasa + [Adjective]
  • Anda + sebaiknya + [Verb]

सामान्य गलतियाँ

In Indonesian, the body part comes before the state of pain. 'Sakit' acts as the descriptor for the body part.

Wrong: Sakit kepala saya
सही: Kepala saya sakit

Do not double up adjectives. 'Pusing' already implies the state of feeling sick/dizzy.

Wrong: Saya merasa pusing sakit
सही: Saya merasa pusing

While flexible, placing the subject first is standard for clear advice-giving.

Wrong: Sebaiknya saya pergi
सही: Saya sebaiknya pergi
