🎯

The Comma Rule

Always put a comma after inter-sentential markers like 'Namun,', 'Selain itu,', and 'Jadi,'. It's the easiest way to look like a pro.

The 'Adalah' Diet

Try to write a whole paragraph without using 'adalah'. It will force you to use more natural Indonesian structures like apposition or direct predicate attachment.

Use 'justru' when your opponent gives you a reason why you're wrong. Use that same reason to show why you're right. It's the ultimate rhetorical judo move.
