fun fact : Indonesia has 800 regional languages โโwith different accents
But it is Indonesian that is often used by Indonesians, and other languages โโare only their respective regional languages

Indonesia: "Our alphabet starts like a, b, c". France, Germany, USA: "Ours too! We're so similar!" China: *awkward silence*
Actually china borrowed the western alphabets to tell the sounds. Chinese read abcdefg as a, be, ci, de, e, fe, ge. (btw, taiwan has this sound system too, but they use chinese components instead of western alphabets to tell the sounds)
ไธๅง yeah it's like those words that are above it like hong for red
But there is also Pinyin where the Latin alphabet is used.
Using the Latin alphabet to indicate the sound of words in your language is called "romanization" and is a widespread practice. For example, the Japanese system romaji (ใญใๅญ) is the well known system used to make the Katakana, Hiragana and Kanji of Japan readable internationally. China has multiple romanization systems with the official system in mainland China being Pinyin (ๆผ้ณ), whilst Taiwan more frequently uses Wales-Giles romanization (I think that's the name, have to check). Taiwan, however, more frequently uses its own alpha-syllabary Bopomofo (ใ ใใใ) locally for representing pronunciation.
In Indonesia however, Latin is the official script of Bahasa Indonesia. The script came into use after Dutch then English colonization, being made official together with the official language which was selected for its ease for learning and subsequent ability to unite the islands and ethnic groups under one tongue.
but the pronunciation is different with USA or English, our alphabet pronunciation similar to Dutch and German
In Chinese, those country names literally are:
USA: ็พๅฝ (Beautiful Country)
Germany: ๅพทๅฝ (Virtue Country)
France: ๆณๅฝ (Legal / Legitimate / Law Country)
UK: ่ฑๅฝ (Heroic Country)
Italy: ๆๅคงๅฉ / ไนๅคงๅฉ (Ethic and Loyalty greater than private interest)
We intentionally chose words that reflect the countries' original pronunciation while representing good meanings. That's how nice and friendly Chinese people are.
Thatโs nice. USA is a beautiful looking country, Iโll admit.

I like the idea, but i think it's more accurate to say that each language has its own phonetics.
for us Brazilians, as incredible as it may seem, Indonesia is Germany is what most resembles the names in Portuguese.
Indonesia use Dutch alphabets with Dutch, Portuguese, Arabic, Chinese, Sanskrit loanword, Indonesian is melting pot, and since they are former Dutch colony so yes it was similar with German
Portugal ever occupied one land, neighbour of Indonesia. Its Timor Leste (east Timor). They speak portuguese. They ever joined with Indonesia as province of Indonesia. During 1975 - 1999. Now Timor Leste stand as a free nation. And also in past, Portugal ever came to Indonesia, periode in 1500s. It was long time. Since we as Indonesia, still form in several kingdoms

Indonesian and Chinese ladies were adorable. I love Indonesians and their culture, which differs where in Indonesia some is from, I've only been to Bali, but I know people from a few different parts, so kool.
I'm Brazilian and I'm shocked most of Indonesian's pronunciations are really really similar to ours. Specially when saying Brasil.
Many words in Indonesian, came from Portuguese.. such as: natal for christmas, gereja for church, sepatu for shoes, mentega for butter, gratis for free (price) etc
@@enikz315 wow, I had no idea! So cool!
Yes indonesian is similar like portuguese and spanish.........
@@bahrunism I'm mind blown and feeling like a uncultured swine ๐๐๐๐ fuck, I really thought it'd be closer to chinese, japanese, Korean or some language I relate more to Asia.
It is official and we do say brasil with "s" but if you asked indonesian the write version, most of us would use "brazil" with "z" from english
Its probably bcs the way they introduce brasil by football which writed in english version "brazil"
The Indonesian name for USA is "Amerika Serikat" , for the UK it's "Britania Raya dan Irlandia Utara", "Inggris" is only refers to England, and the correct non offensive term for China is "Tiongkok" or "RRT".
What does RRT mean?
@@user-vy4fe8nj9d Republik Rakyat Tiongkok
Britania Raya = Great Britain
Kerajaan Inggris = United Kingdom
Inggris = England

Hmmmm Indonesia's pronunciation is very similar to the Arabic pronunciation in egypt we say:
Maser=egypt
America=usa
Almania=Germany
Faranca=France
Andonesia=Indonesia

This is pronunciation of your country in the Egyptian language
It's difficult i know but fun๐โ๏ธ
The Indonesian name for Egypt is actually like the Arabic, Misr. Just pronounced differently. I wonder where everyone else got Egypt from.
Right
As a french speaker, I know that it comes from the Latin "รgytus" because we say "รgypte" in our language, but I don't know why "รฆgyptus". ๐๐
The pronunciation of the Indonesian alphabet comes from the Netherlands, during the colonial era. That's why Indonesian sounds similar to Germany and other European countries. We are an Asian country which is very unique when our language mixes Portuguese, Dutch, Chinese and Arabic.
I could notice the arabic influence when she said "Egypt"
@@kingastaroth7912 yup Egypt is Mesir
And Some Indonesians can even speak Arabic. And Arabic became one with Indonesian because long years ago Arab traders from Yemen came to Indonesia to trade ๐

@@kingastaroth7912 , In my Opinions , We know the 'EGYPT' is from the Arabic Traders ... So, when they introduce us with EGYPT, It's called MISIR & We listen & Spell it by MESIR ...

"Amerika" is just a more common way to say it, just like how most people simply call it the "US" in English.

I remember my 9th grade Indonesian teacher said 90% Indonesian words are absorbed from other languages. Only 10% pure Indonesian words. We influence by dutch, Portuguese, Arab,India, china, japan and English . And i think thatโs why our tongue is flexible can mimic the real native languages from each country.

7:42 Why Indonesians called "Egypt" as "Mesir"? Because we adopted from its Arabic name ู ูุตุฑโ (Misr). Probably the producer should ask for "Greece" also, because we called it as "Yunani", a derivation of its Arabic name ุงููููุงู (Al Yunan)
The reason for Eastern Countries to call Greeks "Yunan" is because they first made contact with the "Ionians" who settled in Asia Minor and had the biggest affect on the middle easterners. While the European name "greece" derives from the Romans, who called the first Greeks the got in contact with "Graeci".
@@OnkelTuerke I just know this, thank you for the explanation
No, Mesir and Yunani came from Persian language.
@@oldschool9449 , That I know , Persian is the Part of Arabic ... And, Arabic that mean in here is the Middle East Countries ... CMIIW ... :-) :-D
@@detaalciardiansyah6912 no, that was totally different, Persian is clasify as a indo-european language and Arabic as semetic family both are different by race.
I really liked that the Indonesian pronunciation to "Egypt" is almost the same in Arabic "Misr". I was surprised actually!!
Yup cause Indonesian language have many fluent from Arabic.
Because we got it from Arabic. And actually, formally, China is "Tiongkok" in Indonesian language, similar to "Zhongguo" in Chinese. "Cina" is used in informal situation.
@qp The name itself Historians differed about it, but the most concrete opinion is Ancient Egyptian(Hieroglyphic) derived from "Mijr" or "Mishr" which means "The Fortified" or "The Hidden".
@qp , I think , 'Arabic' that mean here is the 'Middle East' Ethnics ... And, That I know is the Old Hebrew/Israel's Ethnic's come from the 'Middle East' too ...
@qp , OK , so I'll ask you something, where's Hebrew/Israel's Ethnics coming from ??? ...

USA in Indonesian is actually "Amerika Serikat" we shorten it in text to be A.S. "Serikat" is usually used to express a union of states or people with the same ideals and goals. Or an organisation with the same idea.
UN in Indonesia is Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa. There's a prefix Per and suffix -an there in Serikat. Just to straighten things up since I know other people from the continent can feel miffed to be generalized in USA.
And serikat comes from syarikat, same root as masyarakat. All arabic based.

Indonesian naming for other country and their origins.
1. CHINA = TIONGKOK, majority of Chinese-Indonesian people are of Hokkien ancestry. Tiongkok means "central country" in Hokkien.
2. SOUTH AFRICA = AFRIKA SELATAN, 'Selatan' is Indonesian for 'south'.
3. CAMBODIA = KAMBOJA, In Cambodia (Kampuchea), the name of their country is taken from Sanskrit means "village". But in Indonesia, we call it 'Kamboja', like kembang/bunga kamboja which means frangipani/plumeria flower. The meaning is different and actually created unintentionally. Maybe this can be an extra compliment for the Cambodian people because as a fellow Southeast Asian brethren, the Indonesians named their country after a flower.
4. NETHERLANDS = BELANDA, Netherlands and Holland are synonymous in Indonesian. The word is a flawed loan from the Portuguese vocabulary: holanda, olanda, wolanda, bolanda, and finally become Belanda.
5. EGYPT = MESIR, In the western world, name "Egypt" is derived from the Ancient Greek "Aรญgyptos" ("ฮแผดฮณฯ ฯฯฮฟฯ"), via Middle French "Egypte" and Latin "Aegyptus". But Egypt in Indonesian, comes from the Arabic name 'miแนฃr'.

The french word for โUKโ is Royaume Uni, and the word she said was โAngleterreโ(England)โฆwhich could be very sentitive for some people in the UKโฆโฆ.
For Netherland/Holland. as far as I know English/German/French use both, while Korea we mostly say Netherland, and Japan uses Holland, China commonly say Holland..

In Spanish, we'd say Holanda; however, it's also referred to Paรญses Bajos which means "low countries" (Netherlands) but I think this is more historical background on how to refer the country.

Thank you this was great
In "Chinese" the word Egypt comes from the greek pronunciation ฮแผดฮณฯ ฯฯฮฟฯ (Aรญgyptos) and only pronounce the first two syllables. The Indonesian one comes directly from Arabic ู ูุตุฑ (Misr) .
Aha that's right ,Chinese has aonther way to get countries' names๏ผalways form the nameโs ownner themslef
As the name of 'Greek' is pronunced as Hee-La or Shee-La in Chinese, which is from the Greek themsleves
Yep, the Chinese transliterations for surviving countries all stretch back over thousands of years to the traders and merchants and diplomats who used the Silk Road. It's why Latin words are still pronounced the Classical Latin way and why Greek terms for the Middle East abound in Chinese.
@@TK-my7jg in Indonesia Greek is Yunani (pronounce like: You Nah Nee)
@@Babamcat and it came from the word โIonianโ
@@taufikandika7750 It comes from Arabic too :) Greece is called ูููุงู (Yรปnรขn) and Greek is ูููุงูู (Yรปnรขniy) for males and ูููุงููุฉ (Yรปnรขniyyah) for females. It's not strange at all given the fact that in its majority Indonesia population is Muslim.
in indonesia lang egypt is called mesir the name โmesirโ comes from the Arabic word โMisrโ, which means โfortress or cityโ, referring to the military settlements of the Fustat and Cairo regions, and from this name used for the entire country.
but im not sure about that statement....
indonesia used the arabic version of EGYPT name, which is ุฌู ููุฑููุฉ ู ุตุฑ ุงูุนุฑุจููุฉ : Jumhลซriyyat Miแนฃr al-'Arabiyya
because it is close to the real name and the official name of the country
correct me if im wrong :))))
Yes, mesir is actually from ู ุตุฑ
Actually the Origin of the word Misr is from the Babylonian word Misir which means "the neighbouring territory" and it continued to be used because Babylonian and Arabic are both Semitic languages so it wasn't hard for them.
@@wannagoback3739what
even the name of the day in Bahasa Indonesia was adapted from Arabic..
Monday (senin), Tuesday (selasa), Wednesday (rabu), Thursday (kamis), Friday (jumat)..

Well in Bahasa Indonesia, the formal word to refer the country "China" is "Tiongkok" and it's mandatory since it's written on the law of "Surat Keputusan Presiden No 12 Tahun 2014", so yeah the law is relatively new and yet not a lot of people know this.
Btw, "Amerika" is the shortened version of "Amerika Serikat" which is also the formal word to refer USA. And also UK isn't "Inggris", cuz Inggris is England, both UK and England are different, the word UK in Bahasa Indonesia is "Kerajaan Bersatu Britania Raya".

Gak juga sih sebenarnya. Tiongkok itu cuma nama negara China dalam bahasa Hokien. Kalau dalam Bahasa Mandarin namanya jadi Zhongguo. Btw, kalau dalam Bahasa Mandarin, orang China disebut Zhonghua, kalau dalam Bahasa Hokien jadinya Tionghoa.

the pronunciation of Indonesia is very similar to that of Brazil, but the writing is very different
Nice to meet ladies
Indonesia has many similarities in language pronunciations because got many influences from many countries: Netherlands, Portuguese, Arab, China, and probably those countries have influences from other countries too. It can be from colonialization, trading, semantic root, so the world is a small village. I hope the next video World Friends will introduce food from all countries in the world. Thank you.

We also say USA is Amerika Serikat, UK is Inggris or Britania Raya and China is Tiongkok anyway im just learn German, greetings from Indonesia ๐ฎ๐ฉ
Britania Raya lebih ke Great Britain kyknya
@Indra Arts Great Britain lebih ke nama pulaunya kalau nggk salah, ya gk tau jg. Sama aja dah kyknya
@Indra Arts UK itu nama seluruh negara yg meliputi irlandia utara dan kepulauan britania. Kalau britania raya itu nama pulau utama dan yg terbesar. Kalau inggris atau england itu nama salah satu negara bagian dari UK dimana ibu kota UK juga ada di sana.
Brazil itu Brasil menurut kbbi
Tapi bingung juga bahasa indonesianya UK yg tepat apa. Kalo inggris kan England, jd ga tepat juga kalo UK = Inggris. Klo liat wikipedia ttp bilangnya Britania raya / Britania

This is why the Chinese name of some countries often sound distinctively far from the original.
They don't have alphabet, so in order to name a country they have to find characters that sound similar to its original name, for example:
Italy -> ๆๅคงๅฉ (Yi Da Li) pronounced like ee tdaa lee.
Indonesia -> ๅฐๅบฆๅฐผ่ฅฟไบ (Yin Du Ni Xi Ya) pronounced like in doo nee si ya.
Alternatively, they could use only one character and add ๅฝ (Guo) after it, like:
England -> ่ฑๅฝ (Ying Guo) pronounced like ing kuo.
They took the first syllable of how they sound in their native language and replace it with similar sounding characters, they used ่ฑ (Ying) to imitate the "Eng" as in England and added ๅฝ (Guo) after it. As for ๅฝ (Guo) it means country. So ่ฑๅฝ literally means the Country of Ying.
Or could it be: "eng" represented as "ying" and "land" translated as "guo" (which sounds pretty correct)?
Actually Chinese, Japanese, and Korean have the similliarity in โGuo, Goku, and Gugโ for word of country CMIIW
@@sabkobds , I think , Your Explanation is pretty correct ... :-) :-D
@@sabkobds Nope, the transliteration for England is ่ฑๆ ผๅ ฐ. But Chinese didn't transliterate most of the countries in this video. The Eight Nation Alliance got to choose their own transliterations into Chinese, which is why most of them are so flattering to said country.

Its funny that the Indonesia pronounciation for "Brasil" is the closest to the brazilian portuguese. In the German pronunciation, it looks like she is speaking the name of the Capital, "Brasรญlia".
Almost all of the Indonesian pronounciation was exactly the same as Spanish. I was amazed at the similarity.
We are an Asian country which is very unique when our language mixes Portuguese, Dutch, Chinese and Arabic
@@TabeaSerenety Oh, thank you. I even noticed the "n" sound, but even so, the pronunciation is similar to the Capital name, not the same, just similar :)
@@fabiannicoles That's really amazing!

Halo kak Elita
Actually, Chinese pronunciations often choose the first syllable sound of the country name, and then add the word โcountry/nationโ guo ๅฝ behind it. England is Ying Guo ่ฑๅฝ ๏ผfirst syllable โengโ + nation). France is Fa Guo ๆณๅฝ ๏ผfirst syllable โFaโ + nation). America is Mei Guo (first/second syllable โMeโ + nation). Koreans also call themselves Han ้ฉ people, so the Chinese call Korea as โHanโ+ nation ้ฉๅฝใThailand is โTaiโ + nation๏ผ Tai Guo ๆณฐๅฝ. Germany is Deuscheland in German, so the Chinese use the German translation of the first syllable to make up โDeโ + nation, De Guo, ๅพทๅฝใfor Netherlands, Chinese use the Holland version and transliterate it as He Lan ่ทๅ ฐใ
Chinese characters have meanings, instead of just sound syllables like in other languages.
Other countries like Mexico (Mo Xi Ge), Indonesia (Yin Du Ni Xi Ya), etc. actually are direct transliteration of the sounds without the additional word of โnationโ.
its interesting how you can actually hear Portuguese influences in the pronunciation of Indonesian words.
I am an Indonesian, originally from Europe. The first time to colonize the Indonesian nation was the Portuguese, then the Dutch, then the British, but the Dutch were at most 350 years old
And Indonesian is very much influenced by Indian Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, Portuguese and also English, but very little English, which is big, Dutch and quite Portuguese
And know that there is 1 province in Indonesia called Aceh, the name is an abbreviation of Arabic China Europe Indies (India) in this province, its physical characteristics are a mix of Arab China Europe Indies (India)
Bawel lu nu
I've studied Indonesian although it's not perfect. but until now I'm still friends with Indonesians. little i know China in Indonesia is "Tiongkok" But people often refer to the word "Cina". Ad USA in Indonesia is "Amerika Serikat" and my friend said the mean of "Serikat" is United.
๐
That's correct ๐
Yapp Amerika for continent, Amerika Serikat for United States of America, and AS for US/USA
or it could means federation
Indonesia was colonized by many other countries such as Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands and finally Japan. therefore our language has a lot in common with other languages, also I don't know why we were colonized so much maybe because of the spices.
yeah because of the spices
Good job.
Imagine, these girls having an important political discussion together. Our world would be a greater one :)
In Indonesia, all words are spoken clearly and very firmly. Just like all Southeast Asian countries.
