Rasa Sayang

Using different emotions

When you’re looking at the different feelings (obviously this is not an ultra comprehensive list) try each time, to begin with “Saya rasa…” (I feel/taste) and then say the emotion.

Saya rasa… – I feel…

• gembira – glad/happy
• letih – tired
• lapar – hungry
• dahaga – thirsty
• sedih – sad
• marah – angry
• bimbang – worried
• keyang – full (food)
• takut – afraid

Again, not all of the emotions in existence, only a bare few, but a suitable starting point. Try using them, maybe make some flashcards with pictures of the pictures with different emotions to remember them better!
