Recognise pronunciation and intonation conventions when creating emphasis, for example, recurring patterns and onomatopoeia or conveying emotion, for example, kasihan deh, bagi dong, ada yang baik ada yang tidak baik
(ACLINU080)

Increase control of context-related vocabulary and extend knowledge of grammatical elements including:

• describing people and things using, for example:
  • compound nouns (sayur-mayur, merah darah)
  • acronyms (puskesmas) and abbreviations (SMU, HP)
  • indicators of groups or plurals (kaum, para, kalian)
  • terms of address (Kak, Dik, Mas, Mbak, Bang) and particles (diminutive Si and honorific Sang)
  • classifiers (buah, helai, potong, ikat)
• describing the qualities of people and things using, for example:
  • adjectives using me-/me-kan (menarik, menakjubkan, mengesankan)
  • adjectives using the prefix pe- (to describe enduring attributes of behaviour or character such as pemalu, pendiam, pemarah, pemalas)
  • comparatives (kurang, tidak begitu, agak,
    se-) and superlatives (ter-)
• referring to the past, present and future and relating events in time using adverbs, for example, dulu, yang lalu, yang akan datang, dua minggu lagi
• well-wishing, for example, mudah-mudahan, semoga
• expressing imagination by using imagery (angin bertiup kencang; bunga-bunga berwarna-warni), metaphor (adalah; burung bernyanyi di pohon) and simile (Matanya seperti bintang kejora; Kata-katanya bagai air mengalir)
• maintaining interaction using rhetorical devices, for example, Betul?; Bukan? and verbal fillers such as kalau saya tidak salah, omong-omong, begini…
• expressing emphasis, for example, deh, dong, sih, bukan main [adjective] nya
