Kamus bahasa  baku by Lufti Abas 






This is my second Malay dictionary  , after the  Collins GEM , bought more than 15 yeas ago  from  i think directly the publisher from Malaysia Times Corp . It is a  866  page book from which the 804  pages is  the Malay dictionary solely


This  book is written in both Malay and Chinese. It uses the classical design of two columns and  the story is  separated this way :

Small preface in both Malay and Chinese
Chapter with similarities between  ejaan lama and baru  As for example
       Batek becomes batik  and pileh becomes pilih
Matches between  Latin words and their Malay Romanization
       Chocolate > coklat      machine > mesin


The dictionary  goes into this format :
       Malay > Chinese > English > Malay meaning or synonyms

see the picture below: 







Composite words
        Air bali > air  sebak
    Kaki lima > beranda


The next chapter  is with duplicate  words
   Anak kepaling > sedikit > Chinese translation
   Duka lara > sangat sedih  (extremely sad , I know it from many songs )
Names of countries Here are some unpredicted  country  names
  Greece > Greece /Yunani
  Egypt> Mesir
  Algeria instead of Maghreb !!
  Ethiopia > Habsyah

Authorities including ministries , government  etc in malay > English > Chinese

Names of ministers  as perdana menteri > Prime minister

Chief posts in government   as for example ahli bomba > fireman 

Honorities

Honorary medals

Various acronyms

This book has  been  used ao far   as my main Malaysian  dictionary . There are many cases the  Echols cant  help !

Gumus a tv series with side effects ! Aug 6, '11 10:54 PM for everyone Category: Movies Genre: Drama Gumus (Nur) a series with strong side effects !! Gumus stands for silver in Turkish , but more accurate as the “silver rays of the moon” as someone told me . As yuo may understand I mean for a Turkish TV series which has been aired in the greek TV which I can describe best as a telenovela due to similarity with the maxican TV soap operas Also someone describes with the same name : http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0441924/usercomments Before I enter into the subject let me first tell you about the facts coming from the greek TVs: At first this series is 100 episodes of 1,5 hrs each . And played in the Tuekry for 3 seasons 2005- 2007 but I have no data onhow much it gained audience . This series has been aired first on prime time (2100LT )in the Macedonia TV a nationwide TV channel based in Thessalonica and for unknown reasons they suspended it and played in the sister chann

Baraem and commentary on .... (read inside !)

BARAEM Baraem is a children TV channel more particularly for preschool children with Arabic headquarters . IN a short check today I found that this channel is indeed part of al Jazeera and is aired via the 13E Hotbird satellite We used this TVchannel in order to get rid from the possibly ‘destructive’ influence of Winx (if any ) that could be caused with the ‘magics and spells’ and now this is our daughter’s favorite  TV channel (many times she asks for Baraem ) with slightly less interest in Star the nationwide TV channel and she watches it mostly on local afternoons 8 pm ie before she goes to night sleep . This is not exactly the reason to write this article but rather  for the reason you will see at near he end of it So please be patient ! IN this channel you will not watch Sponge Bob or Dora the explorer (though the latter is quite affiliated ) but are many other series possibly more interesting than them . . Since I do nt know Arabic (I am only intending to learn the
