Halo semuanya, ketemu lagi sama saya, Iman Prabawa. In this article, I want to talk about the meaning of [selingkuhan] in Indonesian. As always, we will watch examples from movies, YouTube videos, and whatnot where the word [selingkuhan] is spoken.
If you are a beginner in the Indonesian language, you can learn step by step with My Lesson Here.
Shall we talk about it now? Okay, let's dive in.
Meaning of Selingkuhan In the Indonesian Language
[Selingkuhan] is someone other than your spouse or partner with whom you have a romantic relationship.
[Selingkuhan] comes from the base word [selingkuh]. [Selingkuh] is a verb, meaning having an affair with someone. If you add the suffix -an to the word [selingkuh], it becomes a noun, [selingkuhan], meaning your affair.
Rule of thumbs: If you add the suffix -an to verbs in Indonesian, the verbs will become nouns. For example, [makan] is a verb that means to eat, and if you add the suffix -an, it will become [makanan], a noun. [Makanan] means food.
Examples of Selingkuhan In Use
The first example we are about to watch is taken from Wedding Agreement (2022). Let's watch the clip below.
You hear in the clip the word [selingkuhan] is used in this sentence:
Selingkuhan suami loe?
Which translates to English as:
Is that your husband's mistress?
You can watch all the clips on my Buy Me a Coffee post without the black screen. I also provided the captions in Indonesian with English translations and vocabulary explanations so you could understand them better. You can also download all the clips there. I explain this on my About Me page.
That's gonna be it for now. If I find other examples where the word [selingkuhan] is used, Insha Allah, I will update this article again.
