- hyuuu 4y agofascinating, I am indonesian and since I have spent majority of my life abroad, my indonesian has been stuck in the past. It's very colloquial as in, I cannot speak like a news caster, due to this, I tend to speak english to fellow indonesians simply because I dont know the formal words for ideas that I try to convey, but I can almost make every english word indonesian-ified.
