      Introduction

      A brief introduction to Indonesian

      Indonesian is the national language of the world’s fourth-largest nation, spoken by at least 70% of the nation’s 250 million people. It is a mother tongue to over 27%, connecting speakers of 750 regional languages. As a variety of Malay, it is also understood in Singapore and Malaysia, making it a major language of Southeast Asia. An Austrone-sian language, modern Indonesian developed from Riau Malay into the official language of post-war independent Indonesia. It has borrowed widely from other languages and absorbed myriad influences, making it dynamic and always in flux.

      Indonesian is considered relatively easy to learn, having very regular grammar. Adjectives follow the noun, as in French, and there is a wide range of verbs. Word order generally follows a subject-verb-object pattern. Words may be left out if the context is clear. Pronunciation is similar to Spanish or Italian, although accents vary.

Vowels:aas in father
emostly as in loosen (swallowed “shwa” sound); sometimes as in egg. In older texts this is written as é
ias in marine
oas in open
uas in blue
Diphthongs:aias in aisle
auas in sauerkraut
Consonants:as in English, except for:
clike ch in child
galways hard, as in gum, never soft as in gem
khthroaty sound as in loch
ngas in thing
nggas in finger (ng+g)
rrolled, as in Spanish
sysh as in show

      This pocket Indonesian dictionary aims to represent the modern, standard usage of Indonesian, through common entries, new terminology and authentic terms, as well as identify parts of speech. A helpful, unusual feature is that this volume does not presume knowledge of word structure, which is vital when using most quality Indonesian dictionaries. For example, the word mengalahkan is listed under mengalahkan as well as its base, kalah in this dictionary. In most dictionaries, only the latter would appear.

      Selection of entries

      By definition, a pocket dictionary is a selection of useful words and phrases, rather than a complete compendium. This dictionary attempts to reflect general, everyday usage throughout Indonesia and the English-speaking world, including words that are important to students, language learners and tourists. American spelling is used. Entries cover survival language for tourists, common everyday words, national culture and language heard on the street.
