Wordlist for Module 1

J The smiley face indicates words that are part of the colloquial speech. Please note thatthese words are frequently used in casual speech, but never in formal speech or in writing.

é The Indonesian spelling system is to a large extent phonetic. Words are pronounced asthey are written and each grapheme (letter) by and large represents one phoneme (sound). Onlythe letter /e/ represents two different sounds: In most words (such as kenal, selamat, terima) the estands for what linguists call the schwa. The schwa is the vowel sound in many lightly pro-nounced unaccented syllables in words of more than one syllable. It is sometimes signified by thepronunciation “uh” or symbolised by an upside-down rotated e. In English the schwa sound canbe represented by any vowel letter. In most dialects, for example, the schwa sound is found in thefollowing words: The /a/ is schwa in adept; the /e/ is schwa in synthesis; the /i/ is schwa in decim-al; the /o/ is schwa in harmony; the /u/ is schwa in medium, and the /y/ is schwa in syringe. In In-donesian the schwa is indicated by one letter only: /e/.However, the letter /e/ is also used to represent an accentuated e-sound. Some English words ofFrench origin mark this sound with an accent: résumé, sauté. When the letter /e/ is pronounced asthe é in sauté, then it is indicated by an accentuated /e/: é. Note that the accent is only used asan aid in this wordlist. You will not find it in texts written in Indonesian. Soré is always written sore.

• Many Indonesian words have affixes in the form of prefixes, suffixes, or circumfixes at-tached to the root word. When a word contains an affix, the root word is given in parentheses pre-ceded by a dot, e.g. “(•kenal)”.
