| Publisher Description: With over 300 ethnic groups spread across over 13,500 islands, the world's fourth most populous nation, this improbable nation has managed to unify under a common language known as Bahasa Indonesian or simple Indonesian. This book will make a great companion volume to Indonesia, Etc. by Elizbeth Pisani. Whether you visit Jakarta regularly on business, or are planning a dream vacation to the islands, this book will help you to communicate with the locals.Indonesia is a linguistically diverse region where the Indonesian language acts as a lingua franca, even though there are more native speakers of Javanese - about 75 million. Indonesian (ind), an Austronesian language, is a standardized form of Malay and is spoken throughout Indonesia. About 30 million people speak Indonesian as their first language and a further 140 million speak it as a second language. This dictionary contains over 16,000 terms in English and Indonesian. It is derived from our Words R Us system, a multi-lingual derivative of WordNet. English Wordnet, originally created by Princeton University is a lexical database that groups words into sets of synonyms called synsets, provides brief definitions and usage examples, and records a series of relationships between these sets of synonyms. WordNet can be viewed as both a combination dictionary and thesaurus.Additional resources are available in Indonesian. See our website athttp: //www.wordsrus.info/ind |
