How Indonesian looks on the page
- Script
- Latin alphabet, without accents.
- Numbers
- 0–9 with a point between thousands (1.000).
- Names
- In Indonesian text, many people have one name only, with no surname.
Writing to Indonesian readers
- Saying "you"
- Indonesian has Anda (formal), kamu (familiar), and Bapak / Ibu (sir / madam) as respectful "you". Check the tone when you write to an elder, a client or an officer.
- Sentence order
- English and Indonesian both put the verb after the subject, so most sentences keep their shape; idioms still need rewording.
- Mixed words
- Jakarta slang mixes in English and Betawi words, and other regions mix in their own languages, such as Javanese.
- Who reads it
- Indonesian is spoken across Indonesia.

You paste (English):

Rapat telah dipindahkan ke hari Rabu pukul 3 sore. Mohon konfirmasinya apakah waktu tersebut cocok untuk Anda.
