Five New Indonesian Words

These five words have emerged from KATLA recently. I asked ChatGPT to define these words and use them in sentences.

Question:

I've come across the following Indonesian words recently. They are "bobol", "jubin", "benak", "rancu" and "belia". Can you define each of these words?

Answer:

Sure, I'd be happy to help define these Indonesian words for you!

"Bobol" is a verb that means "to break into" or "to penetrate". It can be used in various contexts, such as when referring to burglars breaking into a house or hackers breaking into a computer system.

"Jubin" refers to "tiles" or "floor tiles" in Indonesian. It is commonly used when referring to ceramic or porcelain tiles that are used to cover floors, walls, or roofs.

"Benak" is a noun that means "the brain" or "the mind". It can also refer to someone's intelligence or mental capacity.

"Rancu" is an adjective that means "confused" or "unclear". It is used to describe a situation, thought, or idea that is difficult to understand or lacks clarity.

"Belia" is an adjective that means "young" or "youthful". It is often used to describe someone who is in their teenage years or early adulthood, or something that is new or fresh.
