Halo semuanya, ketemu lagi dengan saya, Iman Prabawa. In this article, I want to talk to you about how to say [where are you?] in the Indonesian language. As always, we will watch examples from movies where the phrase [where are you?] in Bahasa is spoken.
If you want to ask me about a specific topic or have difficulties with something in the Indonesian language, you can just ask me. You can check it out on the About Me page.

Okay, let's get into it now.
Formally, we would say this.
Anda di mana?
And here is how you pronounce it.
You can also switch the order of the words.
Di mana Anda?
And here is how you pronounce it.
The meaning is still the same if you switch the order of the words, and you will hear Indonesians say these 2 versions.
Okay, those 2 are formal, and we usually say this in daily conversation.
Kamu di mana?
And here is how you pronounce it.
Or you can also switch the order of the words.
Di mana kamu?
And here is how you pronounce it.
And if you are in Jakarta or its surrounding cities like Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, and Bekasi, you will hear this.
Loe di mana?
And here is how you pronounce it.
And you can also switch the order of the words.
Di mana loe?
And here is how you pronounce it.
There are a variety of ways in writing [loe]. [Loe] means [you]. It's an informal word used extensively in Jakarta and its surrounding cities. You will see sometimes it is written as [loe], [lo], [elo], [lu], [elu] or [lw]. All mean the same.
The first scene we are about to watch is taken from a series called Wedding Agreement, Season 1, Episode 1 (2022). Let's watch the scene below.
Bian: Di mana loe? Gue di kampus loe nih. Ya udah, ya udah, yok. (Where you at? I'm at your campus now. Okay, okay then.)
Di mana loe? (Where are you?)
