introduction

Greetings and hello to those have subscribed... Oh, wait, I can speak Malay right? /slapped.

Assalamualaikum and salam sejahtera buat semua!

Perkara pertama kita nak ucapkan adalah terima kasih banyak buat semua yang subscribe to this thread, and ada yang upvote sekali. Thank you so much! It means a lot! Okay, I am really putting manglish to work. Could I just write in English for the introduction? I'll totally explain it in Malay, and yes, you may say anything you want at me because I do admit that my Malay . A lot. Not just a little, but a lot and I actually have SPM this year. The best I got for my Bahasa Melayu last year was a C+, and that barely secured my results. So, maybe with a little help of this and that, I might be able to improve my Malay. If you were wondering, no, I was not born in the United States nor any other countries which have English as their mother language. To be even more honest, I was born in Pahang and I am currently living in Kuala Lumpur, Damansara to be specific. So, if you happen to be nearby my area, maybe we can meet up. I got a few friends who are a fan of K-pop, we could have a fangirls' day out.

Back to the real main point, what is this?

This is a writing guide. Are you familiar with a writing guide? I reckon not so since writing guides are mainly handled by native speakers of English unlike me, who as Malaysians call, mat salleh celup. And no, I look nowhere near like a mat salleh. I really have a muka Melayu tulen like all normal Malaysian girls, unless my great grandparents blood of Chinese affect me but nope, I don't even look Chinese. I am just really this poyo Malay girl.

Okay, writing guide ini tujuan dia apa sebenarnya? Boleh bahasakan diri sebagai Nana tak? Rasanya lebih senang and much more closer that way. Nana rasa ramai yang tak berapa kenal tentang writing guide, mungkin sesetengah ada baca yang diurus oleh penulis-penulis US/UK, tapi dekat AFF sini, kebanyakkannya budak US. Sebab hal ini, kita, budak-budak Malaysia, susah sikit sebab kita guna British English, bukan American English. Nana tahu, mesti semua tanya, "Ada beza ke British English dengan American English ni?"

Dekat sini, Nana nak beritahu. Ada. Ada. ADA. Perbezaan dia dekat sebutan dan ejaan biasanya, tapi cara menulis pun ada cuma tak ramai teroka sebab perkara ini tengok atas dasar kita belajar guna yang mana satu. Oleh sebab Malaysia ini ikut British English, Nana akan fokus dekat British English tapi adakalanya Nana akan beri perbezaan American English dan British English supaya semua boleh tahu beza dia and nanti bila ada baca fanfic English, setiap seorang dapat kenal pasti sama ada dia guna American English atau British English. Next update, Nana akan terangkan pasal Titles, Description and Foreword.
