Personal pronouns<\/h2>\n

Knowing the basic personal pronouns is going to help you out quite significantly, especially when it comes to formality. For example, in Malay, there is a hierarchical order in terms of which you address someone younger, the same age, or older than you. Let\u2019s take the word \u201cyou\u201d for example. If you were to address someone who is the same age as you or younger, you would say awak, anda or kita, but this is in Borneo Malaysia only. Otherwise, consider sticking to the more formal, \u201cencik\u201d when you address someone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
I<\/td>\nSaya<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
