it's called diction. the preffered choice of word which differs across different region even within natively malay speaking region in indonesia or malaysia. for example, the northeast and south part of malaysia use different word for "Often" Selalu (johor/riau) = Sokmo (kelantan) = Sering (Sumatra). But each word exist in the Malay Dictionary.

both bahasa melayu (malaysia, singapore, south thailand, brunei) and bahasa indonesia is the same as all aforementioned country has made a common consensus that malay language as spoken in the johor-riau area as the standard. indonesian government itself made a declaration that bahasa melayu kepulauan riau as "Bahasa Persuratan Tinggi" which makes it the ultimate standard. so set your nationalism aside and let culture be beyond political boundry.

Lain banget... beberapa kata sama, tapi kebanyakan lain... contoh: Gratis (Indonesia) = Percuma (Melayu)

Indonesian letters are based on a phonics system - 26 sounds that make 26 letters - that it is very easy to learn. In English we have 84 sounds but the same number of 26 letters - that is why English words can not be pronounced from letters. Only recently English schools adopt phonics in their primary school but Indonesians have had phonics for decades.

bahasa indonesia sama saja dengan bahasa malaysia. serumpun la katakan.

Nice video, Dandorf, very easy to follow and effective. You are a pretty girl, too. Good luck with future endeavors. Please teach a little more advanced (intermediate) Bahasa for those of us who have been to Indonesia delapan kali!

Important words for foreigners... SAYANG (dear, love), SUKA (like), SAYA RINDU KAMU (I miss you), TIDAK MENGERTI (I don't understand), BISA BERBAHASA INGERRIS (can you speak English)... ah, Indonesia, definitely my favorite of the 15 countries I have traveled to so far!
