Any seasoned traveler will tell you the ability to speak the language
of your host country will have a huge effect on the quality of your experience
there. It's not necessary to commit to memory hundreds of complicated sentences.
A basic grasp of such simple, everyday phrases as "Good morning,"
'Thank you," and variations of the theme "I want to eat/sleep"
are enough to explain what you want, make friends, find your way, learn
correct prices, and generally make your stay more enjoyable. You'll be
amazed at how much you can say with only a 500-word vocabulary.
Don't worry about grammar and sentence construction
at first. Just concentrate on memorizing the most important commonly used
words and phrases in this appendix, all selected specifically for their
value to travelers. Your emphasis should be on effective, speedy communication.
The most important phrase in this section is "Saya belum lancar
di Bahasa Indonesia" ("I'm not yet fluent in Indonesian").
Say this first, then ask your questions. If you don't first admit your
ignorance, any inquiry is likely to produce an outpouring of verbiage impossible
to comprehend.
At first, Indonesian might appear extremely
simple. It's a nontonal language with no tense suffixes or prefixes, no
case genders or definite articles, no declensions, no conjugations, not
even a verb "to be." In actuality, however, the very lack of
obvious rules makes it difficult to speak the language correctly or express
yourself in a natural way. To speak enough Indonesian to get by is easy-easier
than English. But to speak Indonesian well is another matter; it's as difficult
and sophisticated as any of the world's great languages. But the surprised
expressions and smiles of those you address will be your reward. Selamat
belajar!
Bahasa Indonesia is written in Latin script and consists of 21 letters.
Spelling is strictly phonetic; small children after a very few years of
schooling can read adult literature aloud to their grandparents. In 1972
Indonesia simplified its spelling, making revisions in the language to
conform to Malay, though pronunciation remains the same. Sometimes the
old spelling is used on road signs and maps, and in publications and dictionaries.
In the "new" spelling, every "j"
becomes "y" (as in "yarn"), every "dj" changes
to "j" (as in "jam"), every "tj" to "c"
(as in "chair"), "ch" to "kh," "nj"
to "ny," and "sj" to "sy." To make matters
even more confusing, there are spelling variations everywhere you go, depending
on the island or even the district of the island. Words from other major
languages of Indonesia have also influenced Bahasa Indonesian. Many Javanese
words change "o" for "a" when translated into Indonesian;
Diponegoro becomes Dipanegara and Solo becomes Sala. Some Indonesians spell
tolong (please) as tulang.
Until about 1947, Indonesian words on signs,
maps, and other materials were transcribed using Dutch sounds-e.g., Bandoeng
(Bandung) and Boekoe (Buku). Occasionally you'll still come across these
archaic spellings.
Selamat may be used in conjunction with almost any action word.
Together they form a phrase which translates as "May your (action)
be prosperous, blessed!" Thus, "Selamat tinggal"
means literally "May your remaining be prosperous"; "Selamat
tidur" means "Sleep well"; "Selamat bekerja"
means "Enjoy your work." By itself, "Selamat"
means "Congratulations" or "Good luck" (literally,
"Health"). "Asalamu alaikum" (literally, "Peace
be unto you") is a greeting used before entering someone's house in
Muslim areas; the reply is "Walaikum salam" ("And
unto you, peace").

Indonesia is not a violent environment and you very seldom hear of muggings, rapes, or fights. But due to its huge population base, there is an element of the population who are ill-bred and rude (kasar in Indonesian). If anyone is ever bothering you or touching you indecently, it's usually enough to say "Jangan begitu, itu tidak baik" ("Don't act like that, it's not nice"). This is sufficiently firm, yet polite, and will cover most unpleasant situations.
