"Jom" merupakan slanga yang digunakan rata-rata orang Malaysia, yang bermaksud "mari" atau "marilah". Sayangnya saya tiada Kamud Dewan. Selalunya Kamus Dewan memberikan asal-usul perkataan tersebut.
"Jom" is a slang used by average Malaysians, which means "mari" (come, let's go) or "marilah" (come on). Unfortunately, I have no "Kamus Dewan" (a detailed Malay Language Dictionary). Usually "Kamus Dewan" gives the origins of the word.
