Use 'belum' for negative

Never say 'tidak sudah'. Always use 'belum' to mean 'not yet'.

🎯

The 'Lagi' Shortcut

If you want to sound like a local immediately, swap every 'sedang' for 'lagi' when speaking. It's the #1 way to sound less like a textbook.

Review Summary

  • Subject + sudah + Verb
  • Subject + sedang + Verb
  • Subject + akan + Verb

よくある間違い

The aspect marker must come before the verb, not after it. Indonesian word order is strict here.

Wrong: Saya makan sudah.
正解: Saya sudah makan.

Do not use 'sedang' with specific past time indicators. 'Sedang' is for the present moment.

Wrong: Saya sedang makan nasi kemarin.
正解: Saya makan nasi kemarin.

Avoid stacking aspect markers unnecessarily. Keep it simple; one marker per verb is usually enough.

Wrong: Saya akan sudah pergi.
正解: Saya akan pergi.

よくある質問 (6)

No, 'sudah' is for completed actions. Use 'nanti' or 'akan' for the future.
Yes, in meaning, but 'telah' is formal and 'sudah' is neutral/informal.
Yes! Unlike English 'am/is/are', sedang only indicates that the action was in progress. You can say 'Kemarin saya sedang makan' (Yesterday I was eating).
They mean the same thing, but sedang is formal/standard and lagi is informal/casual. Use sedang in writing and lagi when talking to friends.
No, 'akan' is the same for everyone (Saya, kamu, dia, etc.).
No, 'akan' is strictly for the future.
