For the past 11 episodes, we have learned so many different Bahasa Indonesia commonly used expressions, including paling tidak, sama sekali, and tidak enak badan. We believe that practice is the key to fluency and
so we hope that you have had the chance to apply these commonly used expressions that you’ve learned
in your daily life.
To not waste any of your time, today’s expression is “Buang-Buang Waktu.”
“Aku tidak suka bermain video gim, menurutku bermain video gim hanya buang-buang waktu saja.”
I don’t like playing video games, in my opinion, playing video games is just a waste of time.
As the example shows, the expression “buang-buang waktu” has the same meaning as the English expression
“a waste of time.”
To watch more on how this expression is used in daily conversation, check out the video down below!
