Re: Malay on the Railway

Do not miss the new thread " Jawi Kaligrafi"
Malay is my 4th Bahasa. I need your translation.
If you need translation inro Arabic, I am at your service.
 
How tasty Menyeghok!
Thanks Brother
Fortunately, my embarrasing circumstances made me switch from Communication Engineering
— in which I got my BsC in 1979 from Basra University—
to Arabic Language teaching from 1986 to 1991 in a small village north of Malaysia
There and then I managed to publish my flower Crosswords and
began developing my yet-to-be-published 5-book ALT
(Arabic Language teaching) series for Malays
By the way, Malay is my 4th language.
* Of God's signs is the creation of the heavens and earth and
the variety of your Tongues and Hues (Languages & Colors)* *
(The Glorious Quran)
Thanks with Flowers (Translation into Malay needed)

I would just like to ask whether the Malaysian language actually uses the english alphabet, and if so, whether the letters are pronounced in the same way?

Jazakallahu Khayr for teaching your language :)

Bahasa Malaysia traditionally uses arabic word. When the British come to rule Malay land, they open schools. So the Malays use English alphabet. At one point we use more Arabic characters which is called "Tulisan Jawi", now we use more English characters which is called "Tulisan Rumi"

Spelling in Rumi is easier compared to Jawi. Eg we want to spell EAT=MAKAN (in Rumi). In Jawi we will spell mim-alif-kaf-nun

In Jawi anything with 2 harakat we will put the vowel, but in Rumi we will put vowel even if its only 1 harakat. so letter A is a very popular vowel.
 
why thank you..im passing this on to my nephew who is going to Malaysia to study Islam over the summer holidays..

Actually Malay have their own script called 'Kawi'. When Islam came lots of arabic words incorporated into Malay and the Malay use Arabic script called 'Jawi'. Long after that the British introduced Roman script into Malay, but not so popular because the Malays still prefer Jawi script.

After independence, Malaysian Malay Language use Roman script (we call it Rumi) officially.

But at schools, Muslim children are taught about Islam using Jawi script until today.

MAKAN - Mim-alif-kaf-nun? I used to write Mim-kaf-alif-nun

I think northern malaysian dialect is suitable to be written in jawi script.

Example: 'Air' (water) - should it be written 'ayaq' or 'ayak' or 'ayag' or 'ayagh'? It easier to write in Jawi - alif-ya-alif-ain

Lots of Kelantanese taking laws. I remember when I was in the first year, my Malaysian Legal system class - out of 40 people, only me from Penang and another 2 from Terengganu - the rest Kelantanese. No wonder I can understand Kelantanese.:happy:

Malay language? There is no B.A in Malay Language in IIUM. but all students must take 2 credit hours learning the Malay Language. Many international students can picked up Malay Language easily - I'm not surprise to see Bosnians, Chechens, arabs, Turks, Indians, Koreans even africans speaking Malay. Seen them there. I love albanian and sudanese food they have there.
