'basa kita'

(Title means Bahasa kitani;Our language) BAHASA TUTONG is one of many languages we 'bruneians' use at home. It is one interesting language I should say; has been used for centuries by folks in the Tutong district (country Brunei). Oh yes, Welcome!!! This site is very new, so I need some support and feedbacks. Besides that, I do hope you gain something from this site. DO learn few Tutong lines other than 'abut jiyu raya', a line I heard becoming popular among students in the UK right now. huhu..

Has it been 8 months already?

My apologies for not updating this blog as often as i would love to. I was busy with my fourth year throughout the 2nd half of last year. Then, Ive got the summer scholarship to do a research, and as the name says it, I have to stay back here over my summer holidays. Well... I actually had 2 weeks (only!!!!) break over christmas and newyear, it was too short and i didnt really get to sit down with the dad and speak much Tutong. the formulae would be, less time at home=less time to speak Tutong=no addition to my Tutong dictionary, make sense? hahha.. ok i kid.

not too late to greet readers..
SELAMAT TAHUN BARU HIJRAH
MERRY CHRISTMAS
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009
HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR

(4-in-1, awesome!)

Have a good year everyone, Salam.

Nakalai~
