When you are learning a new language, understanding basic adjectives is really important. Words like "dingin" (cold) help you describe the world around you. You'll use "dingin" to talk about things like the weather or your drink. This is an A1 level word, meaning it's one of the first words you should learn. Mastering simple adjectives like this will give you a strong foundation for more complex sentences later on.
When talking about the weather or an object's temperature, use dingin to mean 'cold.' For example, you could say Cuaca hari ini dingin to mean 'The weather today is cold.'
You can also use dingin to describe a person's demeanor as 'cold' or 'unfriendly.' For instance, Orang itu dingin sekali means 'That person is very cold.'
Remember, dingin is an adjective, so it directly modifies nouns. It’s a versatile word for various 'cold' contexts.
When talking about the weather or the temperature of an object, Indonesians use the word dingin for 'cold'.
For example, if the weather is cold, you can say cuaca dingin.
If your drink is cold, you can say minuman dingin.
However, when talking about people feeling cold, Indonesians tend to use the word kedinginan. For example, Saya kedinginan (I am cold).
When talking about the weather or the temperature of an object, dingin means 'cold.' For instance, 'Hari ini dingin sekali' translates to 'It's very cold today.' You can also use it for things like 'Kopi ini sudah dingin,' meaning 'This coffee is already cold.'
However, dingin can also describe a person's demeanor, meaning 'cold' or 'unfriendly.' For example, 'Sikapnya dingin' means 'Their attitude is cold.' In a more figurative sense, it can refer to a 'cold' or 'distant' relationship.
When talking about the weather or an object's temperature, dingin means "cold." It's pretty straightforward in this context.
However, dingin can also describe a person's demeanor, meaning "cold" or "unfriendly." This is similar to how we use "cold" in English to describe someone aloof.
For example, if someone is not smiling or is acting distant, you could say they are acting dingin.
§ Understanding 'Dingin' in Indonesian
Alright, let's talk about the word 'dingin'. It's an adjective in Indonesian and it means 'cold'. Simple enough, right? But like many words, it pops up in various contexts. Knowing these contexts helps you understand and use the word naturally.
- DEFINITION
- Cold
§ 'Dingin' in Everyday Conversation
You'll hear 'dingin' a lot when people are talking about the weather, drinks, or even their feelings. It's a very common word to describe temperature.
Cuaca hari ini sangat dingin.
Translation hint: The weather today is very cold.
Saya mau es teh yang dingin.
Translation hint: I want an iced tea that is cold.
§ 'Dingin' at Work and School
In work or school environments, 'dingin' often refers to the temperature of a room or something you might consume.
- **At the Office:**
Ruangan ini terlalu dingin, bisa matikan AC?
Translation hint: This room is too cold, can you turn off the AC?
- **At School:**
Bekal makan siang saya masih dingin karena lupa dipanaskan.
Translation hint: My lunch is still cold because I forgot to heat it up.
§ 'Dingin' in the News and Media
When you read or hear the news, 'dingin' often describes weather conditions or sometimes even a 'cold' reception to an idea or event, though this is less common for A1 learners.
- **Weather Report:**
Prakiraan cuaca menyebutkan suhu akan tetap dingin sepanjang minggu.
Translation hint: The weather forecast says temperatures will remain cold throughout the week.
- **Figurative Use (Less Common for A1):**
While you might not encounter this often at an A1 level, 'dingin' can sometimes describe a lack of warmth or enthusiasm. For example, 'sambutan dingin' means a 'cold reception'. Don't worry too much about this for now, but be aware that words can have extended meanings.
§ Key Takeaways for 'Dingin'
So, to wrap up 'dingin':
- It means 'cold'.
- It's used for weather, drinks, food, and even rooms.
- You'll hear it often in daily conversations, at work, at school, and in news reports.
Keep practicing these examples, and you'll get comfortable with 'dingin' in no time. Good job!
§ Understanding 'Dingin' as an Adjective
When you're learning Indonesian, you'll quickly encounter the word dingin, which means 'cold'. It's a straightforward adjective, but because English uses 'cold' in many ways, it's easy to make mistakes. Let's look at how to use it correctly and avoid common pitfalls.
- DEFINITION
- An adjective describing a low temperature.
§ Mistake 1: Using 'Dingin' for People's Feelings
In English, you can say, "I am cold." In Indonesian, you can't directly translate this as "Saya dingin." That sounds like *you* are a cold person, not that you *feel* cold. To express that you are feeling cold, you need to use a different construction.
- COMMON MISTAKE
- Saying "Saya dingin" to mean 'I am feeling cold'.
Saya kedinginan di gunung. (I am feeling cold in the mountains.)
You can also use "Saya merasa dingin" (I feel cold), but kedinginan is much more natural and common.
§ Mistake 2: Using 'Dingin' for Personality
Another common mistake is to use dingin to describe a person's personality as 'cold' or 'unfriendly'. While in English we say "a cold person," in Indonesian, dingin alone doesn't convey this meaning. It will still refer to temperature.
- COMMON MISTAKE
- Describing someone as "orang dingin" to mean they are unfriendly.
Dia orangnya tidak ramah. (He/She is an unfriendly person.)
§ Mistake 3: Overusing 'Sangat Dingin'
While "sangat dingin" means "very cold," sometimes there are more specific and natural ways to express extreme cold, especially for weather.
- COMMON MISTAKE
- Relying only on "sangat dingin" for intensely cold temperatures.
Di musim dingin, udara bisa terasa sangat dingin. (In winter, the air can feel very cold.)
§ Mistake 4: Confusing 'Dingin' with 'Sejuk'
Both dingin and sejuk relate to low temperatures, but they carry different connotations. Dingin is 'cold' in a way that can be uncomfortable or very low temperature, while sejuk means 'cool' in a pleasant or refreshing way.
- COMMON MISTAKE
- Using dingin when you mean a pleasant 'cool'.
Udara di puncak gunung sejuk sekali. (The air at the mountain peak is very cool/refreshing.)
The key is to remember the connotation. Sejuk is usually positive or neutral, dingin can be neutral (for objects) but often implies an undesirable cold when referring to weather or feelings.
§ Summary of 'Dingin' Usage
- Use dingin for things that are cold in temperature (e.g., cold water, cold food, cold air).
- Use kedinginan when *you* are feeling cold.
- Use words like tidak ramah, cuek, or jutek for a 'cold' personality.
- Consider sejuk for a pleasant 'cool' temperature.
By keeping these distinctions in mind, you'll use dingin much more accurately and sound more natural when speaking Indonesian. Practice these different uses, and you'll master 'cold' in no time!

小贴士
Temperature cold
Use 'dingin' to describe the temperature of things like food, drinks, or the weather. It's similar to 'cold' in English.
Feeling cold (person)
If you or someone else feels cold, you can also use 'dingin'. For example, 'Saya kedinginan' means 'I am cold'.
Opposite of 'panas'
Remember that 'dingin' is the opposite of 'panas' (hot). This can help you remember its meaning. Think cold vs. hot.
Use with nouns
You can place 'dingin' after a noun to describe it. For example, 'air dingin' (cold water). This is a common way to use adjectives in Indonesian.
No plural form
Indonesian adjectives like 'dingin' do not change for plural nouns. It's always 'dingin', whether you're talking about one cold thing or many.
Not for 'cold' personality
Do NOT use 'dingin' to describe a person's personality as 'cold' or unfriendly. For that, you might use words like 'dingin hati' (cold-hearted) or other specific phrases. Just 'dingin' refers to temperature.
Cold drinks are popular
In Indonesia, cold drinks are very popular due to the tropical climate. You'll often hear 'dingin' when ordering beverages.
Practice with food/drinks
A good way to practice is to describe food and drinks. 'Kopi ini dingin' (This coffee is cold). 'Es krim ini dingin' (This ice cream is cold). Focus on everyday items.
'Kedinginan' vs. 'dingin'
'Kedinginan' means 'to feel cold' or 'to be cold' (as in, shivering). 'Dingin' simply means 'cold'. For example, 'Saya kedinginan' (I am cold) vs. 'Cuacanya dingin' (The weather is cold).
