If your parents ever asked what do youngsters do on the internet these days, tell them we’re busy creating threads!

This Twitter user was doubting if there were easier words/phrases in Bahasa Melayu as compared with English and of course the Twitterverse heard, and delivered!

BI: The day after tomorrow

BM: Lusa

Ada ke contoh lain di mana BM lagi pendek/lagi senang menulis daripada BI?

Kalau ada, tolong berikan kat bawah.. Aku nak belajar ni

We are cracking up just reading the tweets! Read the thread for more ‘funnily true’ words/phrases that are indeed much shorter and less complicated than English.

BI: I beg your pardon?
BM: Ha?

BI: I told you so!
BM: Haaaa
