Today I share the pronunciation of some common interrogative words and how to use them in Malay.

Below are all the Malay words I used in this video if you want to double check the meaning.

1. What - Apa

2. Why - Kenapa (Informal) and Mengapa (Formal)

3. Where - Mana

4. When - Bila

5. How - Macam mana (informal) and Bagaimana (informal)

6. Who - Siapa

7. How much - Berapa

8. What time - Pukul berapa

9. He/She - Dia (Dia is completely gender neutral, so it's very normal to have to stop the conversation at some point to ask if a person is talking about a male or a female).

10. Go - Pergi (the pronunciation is to pretend the 'R' is not there, so it sounds like PE-GI. The 'E' in 'PE' is like the 'E' in the word 'Err'. The 'G' in 'GI' is like the 'G' in the word 'Go'. The 'I' in 'GI' in like the 'I' in 'Tick'.

11. You - Awak. There are many other variations of you in Malay like Kamu, Engkau, Kau. I will cover the differences in another video.

12. Want - Nak (which is the informal, short form of 'Hendak')

13. That - Tu (which is the informal, short form of 'Itu')

14. This - Ni (which is the informal, short form of 'Ini')

15. Do - Buat

16. Five - Lima (My next video will be about numbers)



Some credentials, I am Malay and I was born, raised and still live in Malaysia.
