Barrie July 6, 2004 at 11:03 am: Sentence for today’s word:

‘Tergantung pananasan hari ini, saya akan pergi ke pantai’ –

Depending how hot it is today, I will go to the beach.
Barrie July 6, 2004 at 12:44 pm: Sorry foks, that should have been spelt ‘Panasan’ and not ‘pananasan’
Garbi July 8, 2004 at 7:56 am: Thanks for the refresher on this one! Tergantung. Great word. I remember my guru giving me this conditional (and useful) word while in class in Yogya last January. Have to make an effort to use this one a lot this week too to ingrain it in the memory. THANKS!!

Thanks also Barrie for the good kalimat (sentence).
