Bagdat Yesbossinov
Bagdat Yesbossinov I give up totally, because Indonesian I know nothing about, much to my shame.
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:17:42 - #2 - ?89

Arief Wibowo Hint, there is at least 1 Arabic loan word hiding within it :D
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:18:30 - #3 - ?89

Tue, 2013-08-20 05:19:13 - #3 - ?89

Tue, 2013-08-20 05:19:30 - #5 - ?89
Bagdat Yesbossinov

Tue, 2013-08-20 05:19:41 - #6 - ?89
Bagdat Yesbossinov

Tue, 2013-08-20 05:22:00 - #6 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Indeed, like French
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:22:51 - #7 - ?89
Анатолий Сорэнсен
Анатолий Сорэнсен Dua = two
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:22:55 - #8 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Bravo Анатолий Сорэнсен, that's correct!
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:23:23 - #9 - ?89
Bagdat Yesbossinov
Bagdat Yesbossinov WOW, if dua is two, you must be like Russians
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:23:51 - #10 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo (Indonesian for prayer would be doa)
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:23:54 - #11 - ?89
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith Oh!
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:25:50 - #12 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Indeed, but Indonesian dua came from Malayo-Polynesian root, while Russian (and English two) is Proto-Indo-European root
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:26:12 - #13 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo ↑ pun intended
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:26:23 - #13 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Christian James Meredith, go go go :D
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:26:32 - #13 - ?89
Bagdat Yesbossinov
Bagdat Yesbossinov Program is barnamij in Arabic, so that one definitely not there ... LOL!
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:28:49 - #14 - ?89
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith I can do this too easily so I'll only drop some words:
Ada = there is
Tulis = write
Tanpa = without
(I don't actually know galat, maaf!)

Namun = however (I think...)
bekerja = which works (wait, is this English influenced? Or just a coincidence that you can use kerja like "work" in terms of functionality??)

Another hint - cara and Jalan are definitely not total synonyms but I think in this case they are.

Actually, I'd get this if I knew what galat meant.
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:30:18 - #15 - ?89
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith CURSE YOU SI GALAT
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:30:29 - #15 - ?89
Bagdat Yesbossinov
Bagdat Yesbossinov Galat is pretty bad word?
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:31:42 - #16 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Yay, I purposefully follow Windowsnesia's official translation for galat, otherwise it would have been two easy :D
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:31:49 - #17 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Not a bad word :)
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:31:55 - #17 - ?89
Bagdat Yesbossinov
Bagdat Yesbossinov Namun is from Sanskrit name?
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:31:59 - #18 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Christian is correct in all of his guesses
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:32:47 - #19 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo (and yes, I am translating a certain verse from a certain book from English into Indonesian)
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:33:23 - #19 - ?89
Bagdat Yesbossinov
Bagdat Yesbossinov Christian James Meredith, comes from Sahul, so he knows Sunda people very well. ))))
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:34:43 - #20 - ?89
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith Oh god, Windowsnesian... Only colloquial Indonesian is more difficult!
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:35:01 - #21 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Pardon my bad Indonesian, I guess I have to add a word into my sentence:
Ada dua cara untuk menulis program tanpa galat, namun hanya jalan ketiga yang dapat bekerja
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:35:03 - #22 - ?89
Christian James Meredith

Tue, 2013-08-20 05:36:30 - #24 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Unfortunately watashi no kataru bahasa nihongo :P
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:39:18 - #24 - ?89
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith Ah, I found it by looking for it on Wikipedia Indonesia :P

Wow... Indonesian makes such a scientific language at times :-/

OK, I'm gonna go ahead anyway and offer a translation:
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:39:38 - #25 - ?89
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith There are 2 ways to program without errors but only the third way works?
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:40:05 - #25 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Yay for Christian James Meredith! :D
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:40:29 - #26 - ?89
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith Yay! That's a funny statement too!
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:41:09 - #27 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo It's (my bad translation of) verse 40 of Epigrams on Programming: There are two ways to write error-free programs; only the third one works.

Tue, 2013-08-20 05:41:52 - #28 - ?89
Bagdat Yesbossinov
Bagdat Yesbossinov So, where is the only Arabic word in hiding here? Arief Wibowo.
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:44:04 - #29 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Unless I am misinformed, that would be galat
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:45:34 - #30 - ?89
Bagdat Yesbossinov
Bagdat Yesbossinov interesting, I thought about Jalan?
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:47:08 - #31 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo I am not sure where jalan (literally means road or street - you will see a lot of Jalan in Malaysia/Indonesia) came from though :)
Tue, 2013-08-20 05:48:07 - #32 - ?89
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Christian James Meredith, your turn :D
