よくある質問 (6)

In formal Malay, no. 'Daripada' is required. In casual speech, you will hear 'dari', but it is technically incorrect.
No, Malay adjectives do not change. Just add 'lebih' before them.
No, that is a common mistake. Use one or the other.
Usually, but it can also mean 'accidentally' (e.g., tertidur).
No, 'sama' needs 'dengan' to complete the comparison.
It is correct for most adjectives, but not all. Stick to common ones like 'tinggi', 'besar', 'jauh'.
