Saya tidak mau mengganti kamu (I don't want to change you)
Mengganti can mean replace, substitute, change and they are used interchangeably.
If you don't want to change someone's behavior then " Aku tidak mau mengubah kamu"
If you want to replace like someone's shift or like their position in whatever relationship then (saya tidak mau mengganti"kan" kamu) makes more sense.
More examples
1 Saya tidak mau mengganti baju saya (I don't want to change my clothes)
Saya tidak mau mengubah penampilan saya (I don't want to change my appearance )
Another thing is when you say dia, it can mean (he, she, it) but at schools we were taught like he - dia laki laki, she= dia perempuan, it =benda/objek.
Otherwise if you just say dia without specifying the person or providing the English translation, then we just assume they are either he/she.
Saya berharap dia suka saya. (I hope she likes me)
Dia berhenti bekerja dan pulang. (He stopped working and went home)
Terima kasih! Saya tinggal di bumi!
I know it’s for verbs. I think it’s intransitive verbs although I don’t understand the complexities and how nouns/verbs overlap yet!
Japanese? I assume you already know how to speak or hold conversations in this language. Or are you planning to write a book in Japanese? I wish I could find the time to learn a language. Your schedule of devoting few minutes every day to learning these languages is brilliant. I'll try it sometime when I'm ready to learn French and maybe Mandarin. 😁
You should learn to speak Yoruba. Its a cool African language and very easy to learn (not saying so because I speak it). 😅 I was surprised to read a post on this account. Its great to use it for practicing your target languages! I hope you are doing great. Good luck.
I speak Japanese alright but my listening and reading is weak! Not enough vocab. So I’m still going. Not gonna write a book in Japanese but I’d like to translate my writing to Japanese some day). Maybe I’ll share it here first 😆
Some people call this Kaizen which is apparently a Japanese method of study though I haven’t heard about it from Japanese people only westerners.
Do you speak Yoruba? I was gonna learn Igbo when I learned many hive friends are Igbo but it seems most hivesters don’t really speak it. If you speak Yoruba I will put it on my list!!
Ahhh cool! Ok, it’s on the list….not super high cause most people in the city speak English but is love to have some simple conversations in Yoruba Igbo and Hausa! So many languages lololol
Wow, this is a creative way to master your target language. I started Arab some months ago on duolingo but I eventually stopped because I couldn't find means to blend the learning with academic and personal stuff.
I do! I rest a lot! I just don't have much of a social life at the moment. When I have more of a social life you'll probably see me just posting sloppy videos of songs I wrote hahaha

Been meaning to thank you for this comment!!! Awesome truly! Talk in DMs
Semoga beruntung! I only know 'jalan' means road, actually. Is 'ber-' a prefix with a specific meaning?
Terima kasih! Saya tinggal di bumi!

I didn’t know you studied!
I don't study, I pick up words here and there, 🙂 and your list showed an interesting pattern.

In my book, you are a native! 😄 It'll be cool to read your works in Japanese. Yes, I speak Yoruba. Its my first language. Hehe.

Welcome to try with me. Arabic will come later for me. But I’d love to learn it. Feel free to post language practice in Cross Culture!
ohayo gozaimasu!
That is one of the few phrases I remember from living in Okinawa. It all seems perishable I guess if you don't practice it.
@selfhelp4trolls I just knew you were the one even without scrolling down to see your works!
You have a lot going on in your life and I honestly hope you find some time to rest as well
I do! I rest a lot! I just don't have much of a social life at the moment. When I have more of a social life you'll probably see me just posting sloppy videos of songs I wrote hahaha
