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

常见错误

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

Wrong: Saya makan sudah.
正确: Saya sudah makan.

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

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

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

Wrong: Saya akan sudah pergi.
正确: Saya akan pergi.
