Subject: IT tak sesuai menggunakan bahasa malaysia (funny) Sun Nov 16, 2008 12:48 am
Why Dr. Mahathir insists on using English for math and science? Because globally people use the language as information and/or technologylanguage at this moment. How dangerous it is if we were to use these words in Bahasa, especially in schools. See example below:
hardware =barangkeras software =baranglembut joystick =batang gembira plug and play =cucuk dan main port =lubang server =pelayan client =pelanggan
ENGLISH: Thatserver gives a plug and play service to the clients using eitherhardware orsoftwarejoystick. The joystick goes into the port of theclient. BAHASA Pelayanitu memberi pelanggannya layanan cucuk dan main dengan menggunakanbatang gembira jenis keras atau lembut. Batang gembira itu dimasukkanke dalam lubang pelanggan." Now You Know.... How terrible is it!!!
