I'm an American Peruvian and I'm excited to travel to Malaysia this week and spend a whole month there during the holidays since my dad has been living there for about 2 years for work.
As a Filipino trying to learn Malay for his friends. some words are very similar to our language but overall this is helpful and Malay is easy to learn
nice content...cadangan, nanti boleh buat video utk foreigners ajar mereka ayat pendek yg boleh digunakan apabila melancong ke malaysia..contohnya 1. Ini apa? 2. Berapa harga makanan ini? 3. Adakah makanan ini pedas/manis/masin? 4. Siapakah nama anda? 5. Nama saya Adam 6. Saya berasal dari Jerman..dan banyak lagi ^_^

Hi I am a Filipino as I watch your video I realize we do have the same pronunciation with some of the words like 10- in Pilipino Language we say sampu also in five- we say Lima. Just sharing. Nice one ! I got new greetings for my Malaysian student in your video thank you.
Indigo comes from India, and is the colour of blue dye, which was commonly used by Indians until not so long ago. In Tamil, the blue dye is called 'Neelam' (Tamil doesn't differentiate between blue and indigo), and in Malay it is 'Nila'. Btw, the colour 'Orange' should be called 'Jingga'; and, 'Oren' typically means the fruit 'Orange'.
Its uncommon to see someone actually say "Jingga" to describe the colour "orange". Just use Oren with a context and anyone will be able to understand you
Nice tutorial i also want to learn malay. My son inlaw is a malaysian and my daughter is in malaysia right now that is why i want to learn their language too. You are a big help kev you've explained it clearly.😊
This can be a good simple starter for making a series of videos to form a library on learning Malay language. I am sure it attracts foreigners who are interested in learning the language and it also serves as a good refresher for some people - like me .... Haha ! 🤭😂😁 Keep it up for the needy of this language, Kev ! 🙏
indigo in malay is "nila" also. Fun fact every word that end with "a" in malay they going to sound like "e" for exemple: Lama - lame kenapa(why)- kenape but only can be use for pronounce.
Good try Kev! Keep it up. There's actually a formal phonetics phonological structure and pronunciation to the malay language, which when you learn them you'll understand or maybe able to teach others better. you might want to look into those for future explanations :) All the best!
Thank you, that's very useful! One of the things that makes it "easier" for me as a German is that we pronounce a lot of the vowels the same way Malay people do. I'm still struggling with the most basic phrases, but then again I only started a few days ago. 😉
Actually for Malay... If you are English speaker.. very easily to catch and understand.. i'm Singaporean but I'm hokkien baba I speak English more than Malay lol.. But still know and understand and I know dialect contenese too haha I am learning different languages lol.. like.. Vietnamese,Thai, Malay,teochew etc..
"Green is Hijau" Okay. This sounds quite similar to Filipino word Hilaw meaning unripe. Maybe because unripe fruits usually are colored green? Being part of the same language family is cool. You sometimes encounter similar sounding words with somewhat realated meanings (kind of).
The letter K in the end of the words in Malay is pronounce as a glottal stop and did not make the K sound. So Pendek is pronounced as Pende', same goes for Kek (Ke'), Nak (Na'), Masak (Masa') etc.
Thanks, kev. I'm still learning malay, or you could call melayu and bahasa melayu and I'm a Malaysian I'm in 4th grade I'm ten uh so my malay is bad but I can read malay just I can't understand it and I can't speak normal sentences but I can say normal words and i hope I get better at malay
There are many parallels with Malay and Tagalog & Bisayan. Number 2 is similarly spoken in Cebuano, numbers 4,5,6 are parallel w tagalog. Filipinos say “Salamat” as a thanksgiving. It is similar to Malay greeting words!
some word are same in my our bahasa 1 - sa/isa 2 - duwa 3 - telu 4 - pat 5 - lima 6 - nem 7 - pitu 8 - walu 9 - siau 10 - sapuluh Color - warna/barna red - maliga orange - kulit yellow - kuning/binaning green - gadung blue - bilu purple - lambayung gray - kaumbi/haw/abu black - maitam white - maputi indigo - nila news - kabar/balita new - bagu old - tua/labing wrong - sala correct - benal/benar short - pandak there - san/Intu here - siya/Iniya/niya right - kauanan left - biwang
Thank you so much for this video, I am very interested in traveling to KL and this kind of information is fun to learn. That all said, I hate your shirt :P
Indigo.... the word for indigo is neela. People older than you may remember, we used indigo (bluish powder) in a wash to launder and whiten white clothes like school uniform shirts. Most of the Malay words come from Indian languages. Neelam is an Indian word. The word bahasa itself is bahsha (language) in Indian language. In fact, the word Malay is from and Indian word when sea travellers discovered the peninsula pointed to the hills and said "malai" (hills)...hence hilly country Malaya. Even Singapore or Singapura is are combination of 2 Indian words. Singa (lion) pure (city, village or settlement). Bumiputra is an Indian word. Bumi (land) putra (prince, son)... son of the soil. Manusia (human being) is manush or manushan in Indian language. Almost every other word in Malay is derived from Indian language. Negeri, Bandar, kota, pustaka, raja, etc... The entire South East Asian region was influenced by Indian empires and kingdoms. Majapahit, SriVijaya, Pallava, Chola, Maurya, etc. And much later by seafarers and traders and laskars (sailors) recruited brought in by Portuguese, Dutch and the British. Indian Muslim traders influenced South Thailand, South Philippines and Indonesia and the Malay peninsula.
Nila or neela it is the same. Every language is derived from an older historic language ... it is called etymology. The root or origin. People say it in different ways.
I really want to move to Malaysia but I need to improve my Chinese and Malay due to school, if you can help answer then can I ask when attending school what would the language be for reading, writing and talking to teachers and other students? Like for an example in the UK we only use English but is it the same In a school in Malay when you only use one language for communication or is it more than one?
Hey there! It depends which school you are planning to go to. Private/international schools use English mostly for both syllabus and general social life. Government/local schools in Malaysia use both English and Malay, like 50/50. The syllabus requires both languages based on the subjects, some subjects are taught in English and some in Malay. For the social aspect, it is dominantly Malay, with English as the second. Chinese is only used for speaking with friends, or if you are in a Chinese school, so if you are having none of that, you don't need to speak mandarin (like me). Hope this helps with your decision and hope you can enjoy Malaysia!
My wife was born and raised in Penang Malaysia and speaks several languages. Its a dame shame I have to come to TH-cam to learn lol Gonna surprise her.
Thank you sir I've learn a lot from your lessons. I am listening in South Africa,province of Eastern Cape at Idutywa town. I have a friend from Puchong, Suburb of Kuala Lumpur

Just use Oren with a context and anyone will be able to understand you

In Sanskrit Nila means dark blue (or the dark colour between purple and blue)
This is so helpful. I am travelling to Malaysia in Sep 2024. I'm saving this awesome video ❤❤❤
Nice tutorial i also want to learn malay. My son inlaw is a malaysian and my daughter is in malaysia right now that is why i want to learn their language too. You are a big help kev you've explained it clearly.😊
The numbers are very similar to my dialect Ilonggo or Hiligaynon one of the languages spoken in the Philippines.
This can be a good simple starter for making a series of videos to form a library on learning Malay language. I am sure it attracts foreigners who are interested in learning the language and it also serves as a good refresher for some people - like me .... Haha ! 🤭😂😁
Keep it up for the needy of this language, Kev ! 🙏
That was fun! Thanks for video!

Good try Kev! Keep it up. There's actually a formal phonetics phonological structure and pronunciation to the malay language, which when you learn them you'll understand or maybe able to teach others better. you might want to look into those for future explanations :) All the best!

Australia is so close to Singapore and Malaysia and Indonesia, Malay and Mandarin should be taught in our schools.
Thank you, that's very useful! One of the things that makes it "easier" for me as a German is that we pronounce a lot of the vowels the same way Malay people do. I'm still struggling with the most basic phrases, but then again I only started a few days ago. 😉
