| Going to the mall. Yay! Mall! |
| Hi, everyone! I'm Blanca and you're watching Indonesian Top Words. So today we are going to learn about 10 Things to Do in the Summer in Indonesia. So I have to let you know that |
| we don't have, like, summer, spring, autumn, and winter, so it's always, like, summer |
| all year long. It's very good so I'm not saying that you don't need those 10 things, |
| because we also have like vacation but it's usually school vacation or office vacation. So yeah, it's always summer in Indonesia. Okay, the first thing. |
| 1. bersantai di pantai "to relax at the beach" |
| Saya suka bersantai di pantai saat akhir pekan. "I like to relax at the beach on the weekend." |
| 2. belajar memasak masakan Indonesia "to learn to cook Indonesian food" |
| Saya akan mengikuti kelas memasak masakan Indonesia. "I will take a Indonesian cooking class." |
| Yes, I think you should learn how to cook Indonesian. |
| Start with nasi goreng, "fried rice"; mi goreng, "fried noodle," and so on and so on. |
| And you have to learn this because it's the best food, one of the best food, in the world. Ok? |
| 3. makan barbekyu "to have a barbecue" |
| Saya lebih suka untuk makan barbekyu di restoran. "I prefer to have a barbecue at a restaurant." |
| Makan barbekyu, or "to have a barbecue", is not a very usual thing we do at home in Indonesia because we can just go to a street vendor and they sell like grilled chicken or grilled fish and it's easy, easier. And you don't have to prepare anything by yourself, and just pay and leave. Yeah, you should try satay ayam, that means "grilled chicken." So so good and cheap. |
| 4. pesta semalaman "to party all night" |
| Next thing to do is... |
| pesta semalaman "to party all night" |
| Mereka pulang jam 5 pagi setelah pesta semalaman. "They went home at 5 o'clock after partying all night." |
| 5. berjemur "to get a tan" |
| Dia sedang berjemur di balkon. "He is getting a tan at the balcony." |
| So I don't think this is what Indonesian usually do because we already have a tan skin, so we don't do berjemur, or "to get a tan." |
| 6. pergi mendaki "to go hiking" |
| Kami akan pergi mendaki akhir pekan ini. "We will go hiking this weekend." |
| 7. bekerja paruh-waktu "to work a part-time job" |
| Setiap hari Senin dan Selasa saya bekerja paruh-waktu di kafe. "Every Monday and Tuesday I work part-time at the cafe." |
| 8. bersenang-senang dengan teman-teman "to have fun with friends" |
| Saya sering main ke mal untuk bersenang-senang dengan teman-teman. "I often go to the mall to have fun with friends." |
| This is so true. Yes, we hang out at the mall every time when I was at school. You know, the mall is |
| like the center of entertainment, they can do window shopping or just eating |
| lunch, eat dinner ,or just eat ice cream yogurt, or just buy coffee and sit in the |
| cafe for hours and hours and talking and that's it. Just a mall! |
| Every day ritual, going to the mall. Yay! Mall! |
| 9. mengikuti sekolah musim panas "to attend summer school" |
| Okay, in the next one... |
| mengikuti sekolah musim panas "to attend summer school" |
| Adik saya akan mengikuti sekolah musim panas. "My sister will attend summer school." |
| So as I said before, we don't have summer or winter or autumn or spring, so this is, in this case, it's true if he or she will attend summer school abroad. Yeah, it could be... wait, wait, summer it's always like August, July, but I'm not sure probably it's only different in Australia, is that correct? I don't know. |
| Tell me, tell me in the comments! |
| 10. di rumah dan main internet "to stay inside and browse the Internet" |
| Ah, I like this one. |
| di rumah dan main internet "to stay inside and browse the Internet" |
| Kalau hari libur saya biasanya di rumah dan main internet. "On holiday, I usually stay at home and browse the internet." |
| So we have a saying for this in slang word, it means "too lazy to go out"; and the slang word is mager. It's from the word males gerak, it means "too lazy to move or go out and this usually when it's raining outside or too hot, which is usually everyday. |
| Are you mager? Males gerak? Too lazy to move when it's raining? Then I'm the same with you. |
| Okay, guys, this is the end of our lesson today so now you know 10 Things to Do in the Summer in Indonesia. Ok, I hope you enjoyed this video! And, Sampai jumpa lagi! Goodbye! |
