Colins gem M-E E-M dictionary (Eng Malay )
COLLINS GEM
MALAY ENGLISH ENGLISH MALAY DICTIONARY
EJAAAN BARU
This is my first ever Malay dictionary bought from Collins in UK directly on early 90s via lewtter As as fan of books i know the company and these dictionaries from miid80s as for that time i have bought the Greek version which is very handy and very practical due to its small size 7 x 10 cm
There is also a very funny case that i took with me on our trip to Bali on Sep 2000 Our host fir touring Bali was quite surprised looking at this ! (not even that i knew his main language )
Now bavk to the dictionary . In contrast to the greek version , this book uses bot only the ejaan baru (new speling )but shows also the use of vowels , the changes in consonant letters , the prefixes and suffixes again in the new system
The next chapter shows some grammatical information again with all pre- and suffixes and their meaning , the numerals ( sowing : orang , ekor , buah , biji , batang, helai , keping ), the numbers (by some way i always forget the sebelas as the 10 ), the ordinals ( 1/5th etc ) , the Arabic month s, weights, times , Malays states ,
Instead of describing the dictionary entries i will show you with pictures :
The Malays English part is shown this way: There are 288 pages
The English Malay part is shown this way . This part is included n pages 290 -614
IN any way this book was very helpful for those older times and is more than enough for the traveler
