Let's go eat rice!

"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.

Silly means "poyo"? Hmm.. that is slang, must be Penangite slang. The actual word is "bodoh"

Its good to know the actual formal language. It is also good to know the slang. At least its sounds like, you have been in a place for a long time

"Poyo" bukan slanga pulau pinang. Ia diperkenalkan oleh komik Ujang untuk menggambarkan seseorang yang tidak keruan.
("Poyo is not a Penangite slang. It was introduced by 'Ujang' comic to potray some body who is so 'blurred')

Just my theory that "poyo" actually originates from "beriyo-iyo", a Minang corruption of "beriya-iya" (enthusiastic). Since many of the jokes introduced in 'Ujang' were uttered in Minang accent, hence, the usage of 'poyo' became widespread. This is reinforced by the fact that I'm half Minang. Hehe!

Saya tidak fikir ada asal-usul lain bagi perkataan 'poyo'.
I can not think of any other origin for the word 'poyo'.

It depends on the context. Different translators have different choice of words. Actually your interpretation is as good as mine. 'Janggal' can also be translated as 'weird' or 'out of place'.

Oh, begitu. Ujang banyak memberikan perkataan-perkataan yang baru dan digunakan oleh rakyat Malaysia seperti cipan, planet zargus, hampeh dan semestinya perkataan-perkataan Minang. Ujang juga mempopularkan dialek Minang di kalangan rakyat Malaysia.

Oh, that's it. Ujang gave lots of new words used by Malaysians such as "cipan" (tapir) , "planet zargus" (a planet popularly used in Ujang), "hampeh" (useless) and for sure Minang vocabs. Ujang also popularized the Minang dialect among Malaysians.
