Times of the day are divided into three phases in Indonesia: pagi, siang and soré.

Please | Tolong (asking for help) |
Coba (if inviting someone to try something) | |

I’m going now.
Mari, saya duluan ya.
Goodbye | Mari / Silahkan |
Goodbye | Selamat jalan |
(have a good trip) | |
Goodbye | Selamat tinggal |
(to someone staying) |
It is important to take leave of others. Indonesians would not leave the house without saying goodbye first (pamit) to those staying behind, especially if they are older. This is also the case if you have chatted with someone. It is very good manners to do it after you have paid for something.
Small Talk
Indonesians are very fond of asking questions, some of which might seem rather personal to Westerners. You shouldn’t be offended as you might back home. Answer those that you can, and ask the same question back! Alternatively you can give vague answers—nobody is that interested in the accuracy of your response, they just want to chat.
Where are you going?
Mau ke mana? (lit. want to where?)
This is a very common question and people may not be really interested in your answer. It is a bit like commenting on the weather in English.
Just having a wander.
Jalan-jalans aja. (lit. just going around)
To the market.
Mau ke pasar.
To the beach.
Mau ke pantai.
Have you been here long?
Sudah lama di sini?
Just two days
Baru dua hari.
Already a week.
Sudah seminggu.
Two months.
Dua bulan.
Where are you from?
Dari mana? (lit. from where?)
This could also mean, “Where have you just come from?” (ie. what was your last destination before here?) but when addressed to foreigners, it is usually asking about their origins.
From America / the US.
Dari Amérika.
From Australia.
Dari Australia.
From Surabaya.
Dari Surabaya.
Talking about Yourself
mother | ibu | |
father | ayah | |
older sister/brother | kakak | |
younger sister/brother | adik | |
husband | suami | |
wife | isteri | |
friend | kawan, teman | |
boyfriend/girlfriend | pacar |
What’s your name?
Siapa namanya?
My name’s Rita.
Nama saya Rita.
Who’s this?
Ini siapa?
This is my friend.
Ini kawan saya.
This is my sibling / cousin / family member.
Ini saudara saya.
Indonesian society is still very traditional. It is better to introduce a partner as a friend, unless you are already married. This is also the case for same-sex relationships. Indonesians in the same situation would do the same.
Where do you live?
Tinggal di mana?
I live in ...
Saya tinggal di ...
What do you do (for a living)?
Kerja di mana?
I’m a student.
Saya mahasiswa.
I’m a doctor.
Saya dokter.
I’m unemployed.
Saya sedang tidak bekerja.
(lit. I’m not working right now).
How many brothers and sisters do you have?
Berapa bersaudara?
I have ... older siblings and one younger sibling.
Saya ada ... orang kakak dan seorang adik.
There are four of us altogether.
Kami bersaudara empat.
Indonesians focus on whether siblings are older or younger, rather than whether they are sisters or brothers.
Are your parents still alive?
Apa orang tua masih ada?
Both are still alive.
Dua-duanya masih ada.
My mother is but not my father.
Ibu masih ada, tapi Bapak sudah tidak.
No, not any more.
Sudah tidak ada.
Are you married?
Apa sudah menikah?
Yes.
Sudah.
No.
Belum.
I’m divorced.
Sudah cerai.
Belum is literally (not yet). To say tidak would suggest you are philosophically anti-marriage, or are very pessimistic.
Unless you know the person well, better to simply say belum nikah to avoid going into details. Divorce is something of a taboo topic.
How old are you?
Umurnya berapa?
I’m 32 (years old).
Tiga puluh dua (tahun).
I’m already old.
Saya sudah tua.
I’m still young.
Saya masih muda.
Most people are very matter-of-fact about their age. Older people are greatly respected in Indonesian society—if you are usually embarrassed about your age, you may want to enjoy being more revered than you are back home. Giving an ambiguous answer will also provide amusement!
OUT & ABOUT
Arriving
Most international traffic in Indonesia is via air. The largest international airports are in Jakarta (Bandara Soekarno-Hatta) and Denpasar, Bali (Bandara Ngurah Rai) but there are also international flights to Medan, Padang, Manado and other regional centers.
There is a frequent ferry service from the island of Batam to Singapore, which runs several times a day, by various operators.
There are also land border crossings in Kalimantan, from East Malaysia, by bus. These are popular with Indonesian migrant workers earning Malaysian ringgit across the border in Sarawak or Sabah.
Visa requirements change frequently so be sure to check requirements for nationals of your country. Currently, many foreigners can obtain a visa on arrival with fairly little fuss for US$35 (new, clean bills).

Indonesian hotels are usually excellent value for money. If you feel the room rate is excessive, try asking for a discount (Ada diskon?) You might get lucky.
You will usually be asked for identity when checking in—a passport is fine, or local driving licence or residence permit.
Nearly all hotels, however small, will be able to provide you with at least a thermos of hot water and cups for drinking. If one is not visible in your room, just ask for one by saying Minta térmos air panas. Better hotels will have complimentary sachets of tea, coffee and sugar, and possibly also a small fridge.
Transportation
There is a variety of public transportation in Indonesia, some forms quaint, some increasingly modern. Shorter distances can be covered by vehicles such as Jakarta’s bajaj (like the Thai tuktuk), and outside Jakarta, by rickshaws or bécak and ojék (motorcycle taxi). These require some bargaining.
Flat rates operate on public buses and minibuses (angkot or angkutan kota) as well as trains. Mini-buses can be flagged down anywhere. However, taxis are your safest bet. Ask for one with a meter. Blue Bird is the best known company.
