Bab 1: Ayat-ayat mudah

Selamat Datang ke Bab 1 pelajaran Bahasa Melayu. Dalam bab ini, saya akan memperkenalkan beberapa ayat mudah untuk anda pelajari. Mari kita mulakan:

Welcome to Chapter 1 of learning Bahasa Melayu. In this chapter, I will introduce to you a few basic phrases for you to start learning. Let's begin:

Selamat pagi! ( Si(r)-la-mat pa-ghee)
Good morning!

Selamat tengahari! ( Si (r)-la-mat te(r)-nga-ha-ree)
Good afternoon!

Selamat petang! ( Si (r)-la-mat pe(r)-tongue)
Good evening!

Selamat malam! ( Si (r)-la-mat ma-lam)
Good night!

Nama saya ialah ... ( Na-me(r) sa-ye(r) iya-lah )
My name is ...

Apa khabar? ( Uppe (r) ka-bhar?)
How are you?

Readers Note: The words in the parentheses are how you would pronounce them in English and if you see something like Si (r), you would pronounce it like the British 'Sir' but of course with the silent 'r'. That is the closest sound that I can think of that relates to how you would pronounce the words in Bahasa Melayu.

Ya. ( Ya )
Yes.

Tidak. ( Tee-duck)
No.

Terima kasih. ( Te (r)-ree-ma ka-seeh)
Thank you.

Sama-sama. ( Summe (r) summe (r) )
You're welcome.
