Subject pronouns + possessive adjectives Kata ganti subjek + kata sifat milik

Every English sentence needs a subject. The subject pronouns are I, you, he, she, it, we, they. Each has a matching possessive adjective that comes before a noun: my, your, his, her, its, our, their. Use he/his for a male, she/her for a female, it/its for a thing. English needs the subject even when it is obvious — you cannot drop it the way many languages can.

Setiap kalimat bahasa Inggris butuh subjek. Kata ganti subjek: I, you, he, she, it, we, they. Masing-masing punya kata sifat milik yang cocok, diletakkan sebelum kata benda: my, your, his, her, its, our, their. Pakai he/his untuk laki-laki, she/her untuk perempuan, it/its untuk benda. Bahasa Inggris butuh subjek bahkan saat jelas — tak bisa dihilangkan seperti banyak bahasa.

  • He is my friend. His name is Jack. /hiː ɪz maɪ frend hɪz neɪm ɪz dʒæk/ Dia temanku. Namanya Jack.
  • She is here. Her name is Emma. /ʃiː ɪz hɪr hɜːr neɪm ɪz ˈemə/ Dia di sini. Namanya Emma.
  • We are friends. You are my friend too. /wiː ɑːr frendz juː ɑːr maɪ frend tuː/ Kami berteman. Kamu juga temanku.

this / that this / that (ini/itu)

this points to something near you; that points to something farther away. Both can stand alone (What's this?) or come before a noun (this friend, that person). To introduce a person, English uses this: "This is Jack" — not "He is Jack" the first time you point them out.

this menunjuk yang dekat denganmu; that menunjuk yang lebih jauh. Keduanya bisa berdiri sendiri (What's this?) atau mendahului kata benda (this friend, that person). Untuk memperkenalkan orang, bahasa Inggris memakai this: "This is Jack" — bukan "He is Jack" saat pertama menunjuknya.

  • This is my friend. /ðɪs ɪz maɪ frend/ Ini temanku.
  • That is Emma. She's here. /ðæt ɪz ˈemə ʃiːz hɪr/ Itu Emma. Dia di sini.
  • What's this? — It's my name. /wʌts ðɪs ɪts maɪ neɪm/ Ini apa? — Itu namaku.
