A few words of the Malay language from a Singapore banner

 


I looked at this poster and saw that the Malay language was used. I spotted one word straight away. Denggi. That must be dengue. I took another look. Kes was case. I know anda is your.

These are the words translated in order

terdapat - be found (there are)

atau - or

lebih - more

kes - case

denggi - dengue

di - at

kawasan - area

kejiranan - neighbourhood

anda - your


Now I shall arrange them alphabetically in both Malay and English

Malay - English

anda - your

atau - or

denggi - dengue

di - at

kawasan - area

kejiranan - neighbourhood

kes - case

lebih - more

terdapat - there are /be found/(we have) found


English - Malay

area - kawasan

at - di

case - kes

dengue - denggi

more - lebih

neighbourhood - kejiranan

or - atau

there are /be found/(we have) found - terdapat

your - anda
