Systems of language
Compare the pronunciation of phonemes in the middle of words and at the beginning of words ny and ng (nyamuk, Nyoman, ngantuk) and intonation of polysyllabic words, for example, mendengarkan, berbelanja, berselancar
Recognise the difference in and apply the conventions to pronunciation of unfamiliar loan words from English

Use context-related vocabulary and develop and apply knowledge of grammatical elements in simple spoken and written texts to generate language for a range of purposes, including:
- using adjectives to describe people, activities and things, for example, Saya suka membaca buku misteri karena menarik; Sepupu saya pandai dan cantik; Rendang itu pedas dan enak
- describing frequency using adverbs, for example, selalu, sering, kadang-kadang
- creating cohesion using conjunctions, for example, lalu, sebelum, sesudah
- referring to relationships between people and things using prepositions, for example, untuk, kepada, Kami membeli sepatu baru untuk bermain sepak bola
- expressing reactions with exclamations, for example, Kasihan!; Hebat!; Asyik!
- locating events in time, for example, hari ini, kemarin, besok, sudah, belum and using days of the week and months, for example, Pada hari Sabtu saya menonton televisi dengan sepupu saya; Besok saya akan pergi ke toko untuk membeli buku
- comparing and evaluating using comparatives and superlatives, for example, Saya lebih suka berselancar daripada menonton televisi; Bola basket adalah olahraga yang paling popular di kelas saya
- extending subject-focus construction by adding preposition or adverb to subject-verb-object word order, for example, Saya menonton film di bioskop; Pada hari Minggu saya berselancar dengan bapak di pantai
- describing actions using ber- and me- verbs related to free time activities, for example, berselancar, berbicara, menonton, melihat
