If you want to learn Bahasa Indonesia with me, you can just join my group. You can check it out on the About Me page.

So, without further ado, let's dive in!

Aja In the Indonesian Language

[Aja] is informal for [saja]. It means only, just, merely. You will hear [aja] being spoken a lot in daily conversation in Indonesia. In daily conversation, native Indonesian speakers tend to drop letters or words, and in this case, [saja] becomes [aja].

Sometimes [aja] doesn't have any meaning at all. It functions only to emphasize. Example sentence: Darimana aja sih kamu? Jam segini baru pulang. (Where have you been? At this hour just got home.) [Aja] in this example sentence only to emphasize the word [darimana]. The one asking this question really wants to know where she or he has been gone for the time being.

How to Pronounce Aja

Let's hear how to pronounce [aja] in the video below.

Next, we will watch clips where this word [aja] is spoken.

Aja In Movie Scenes

This clip is taken from a TV Program called Tetangga Masa Gitu. Let's watch the clip below.

What Bastian said in the clip with English translations is as follows.

Bastian: Hari libur di rumah aja nih, mas? (Just staying in the house on holiday like this, mas?)

As you can see in the scene, Bastian drops the letter [s] in [saja] and just pronounce it [aja] instead of [saja].

Vocabulary from the scene

[Hari] = day

[Libur] = holiday, day off.

[Rumah] = house.

[Mas] is an honorific title used to address men older than we are. You can read more about this in this article, Mas Meaning In the Indonesian Language.

So, I think that's all for now, and if I find another scene where this word [aja] is spoken, Insha Allah, I will update this article again so that you can see other sentences that are using the word [aja]. Bye now.
