Lesson 9 · Meet everyday food words
Food, Meals & Market Basics
Food words carry family, regional, and everyday context. This written-first lesson stays with independently checked terms for food and drink, breakfast, eating and drinking, a market, two kitchen essentials, limited quantity and preference words, and one source-supported water request. It does not turn individual words into restaurant scripts, price negotiation, dietary statements, or fluent-speech claims.

Lesson 1 · 17 min
Food, drinks, and breakfast
Objective
Recognize a compact, source-checked set for food, drinks, and breakfast.
Why it matters
Start with kakanan (food), danum (water), gatas (milk), kape (coffee), and almusal (breakfast). These are written reference words with narrow source glosses; they do not promise that one spelling or generated voice fits every household.
Examples to notice
- •kakanan — food
- •danum — water
- •almusal — breakfast

Which listed word means “coffee”?
Mark this complete after you can find one food word and one drink word in the Phrase Guide.
Lesson 2 · 17 min
Eat, drink, and meet the market
Objective
Recognize source-listed action words and one market word without building a restaurant script.
Why it matters
The checked dictionary records mangan (to eat), minum (to drink), and palengki (market). Use them for written recognition. This lesson deliberately does not add a detailed ordering exchange, price question, negotiation, or dietary statement from separate word entries.
Examples to notice
- •mangan — to eat
- •minum — to drink
- •palengki — market

Which written form means “to drink”?
Mark this complete after you can identify the action words and the market word without expanding them into an unsourced script.
Lesson 3 · 16 min
Kitchen essentials and limited quantity
Objective
Meet two kitchen terms and keep quantity and preference language within source-supported glosses.
Why it matters
Banggera is recorded as “kitchen; storage place,” and balanga as a clay pot used to cook viands. For limited quantity and preference recognition, this pack keeps metung (one), dakal (many; much; more), and bisa (to want). It does not infer full requests, portions, substitutions, or preference statements from those separate entries.
Examples to notice
- •banggera — kitchen; storage place
- •balanga — clay pot used to cook viands
- •dakal — many; much; more
Tiny knowledge check
Tap an answer. You can try again anytime.
Which listed word means “one”?
Mark this complete after you can locate one kitchen term and one quantity or preference word in the Phrase Guide.
Lesson 4 · 16 min
Read one courteous request
Objective
Read the one bounded food-related request whose source supplies the full request pattern.
Why it matters
Wikivoyage lists Malyari ku pung manyad metung basung ____? as “May I have a glass of _____?” and separately lists danum for water. This lesson shows the direct danum completion exactly once: Malyari ku pung manyad metung basung danum? It does not generalize that pattern into restaurant ordering, food substitutions, or price language.
Examples to notice
- •Malyari ku pung manyad metung basung danum? — May I have a glass of water?
- •metung — one
- •danum — water
Tiny knowledge check

Which complete example asks for a glass of water?
Mark this complete after you can identify the water request and explain why this lesson does not extend it into a full ordering script.
