Beginner || Learn Malay Through English ||
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Everybody has their own special sanctuary or a place they could call their own. It is where a person seeks solace. It is where they heal. It is THEIR place.
So, which part of the house is your sanctuary?
Personally, my bedroom is my sacred space. I think for most people it is. It is where I can actually think and myself.
Anyway...
The title of this lesson would be "Parts of the House" or rather "Bahagian-bahagian dalam rumah" in Malay.

- How many rooms are there in your house? - Berapa bilik yang ada dalam rumah awak?
2. Kitchen - Dapur
- I do the dishes in the kitchen after lunch. - Saya membasuh pinggan dan mangkuk dalam dapur selepas makan tengah hari.

Toilet is tandas. So, if you are in public or at a restaurant, tandas is used.
