what i dont understand is why the malays convert english words into their own when there is a perfect malay substitute
active = aktif = cergas
train = tren = keretapi
discuss = diskus = bincang
Is Pokai a Malay Word?, Cinemax subtitle

QUOTE(Icehart @ Apr 29 2009, 09:09 PM) wadafak i don't mind malay copy pokai word. But too copy and define wrongly is faggotry. nobody knows for sure the etymology of the malay word "pokai". it could have been from any language. just because there is a word that sounds the same in canto doesnt mean the malay word was actually derived from it. |
