Doing travel is a wonderful thing I dream for years, and I could never do it anymore. But God is so just. Instead, I even met by individuals who were traveling and even lived in my home. From my that experience, Im sure. If you want to say YES or NO in Indonesian, you before it must make a habit to do it.

Here we go!

How to say, YES!

How to say YES in English, I have found some words, i.e., Yeah, Yup, Mm-hmm, Uh-huh, Sure, and Mm-mm.

And how to say NO in English, I have found those words, too, i.e., Nah, Nope, Noway, and Uh-uh.

My message is only one. Do never to use those words above to say YES or NO!!

No one in Indonesia will understand with what you meant, except, they have a habit live with foreigners.

These are translation of the words YES and NO into Indonesian.

Yes = Iya / Ya.

No = Tidak / Enggak.

Do you want a cup of tea? Yes, please / Yes.

Apakah anda ingin secangkir teh? Ya, silahkan / Ya / Iya.

Apakah anda mau secangkir teh? Ya, mau / Iya mau / Ya / Iya.

Do you want a cup of tea? No / No, thanks / No, I don't want.

Apakah anda ingin secangkir teh? Tidak / Tidak, terima kasih.

Apakah anda mau secangkir teh? Tidak / Saya tidak mau.

The key is to make a habit. Say 'Ya / Iya and Tidak' many times before you come in to Indonesia, so your voice to say 'Ya / Iya and Tidak' would sound more familiar.

Have an agreeable day.
