Halo semuanya, apa kabar? This time, I want to talk to you about the meaning of kelewatan in Bahasa Indonesia. As usual, we're gonna also watch a scene that I took from an Indonesia movie called Mimpi Metropolitan.
If you have any questions regarding the Indonesian language, you can ask me directly. You can see how to do that on my About Me page.
If you are a beginner in the Indonesian language, you can learn step by step with My Lesson Here.
So, let's get started!
When you're being [kelewatan] means that you have gone too far. You have crossed the line that should not be crossed.
It can also mean that you have already gone too far in the literal meaning. For example, I go by train and then I want to stop at the next stop, but apparently, I overslept so I pass that next stop. In this situation, you can also use this word. I will give you an example sentence later.
Next, we will hear how to pronounce the word [kelewatan] down below.
And now, let's watch a scene from a movie.
For the transcript of the conversation that happened in that scene with English translation, you can read in my previous article, Meaning of Empat Mata In Bahasa Indonesia.
As you can see in the scene, Melanie thinks that Bambang has gone too far, by talking to Pipin asking her to leave. Melanie got angry and she directly talked to Bambang.
Next, I will give you example sentences to make you understand this word better.

Third example,
