Exercise.
Is the water boiling? Boil two eggs, but take care that they are not hard. What do you call this vegetable in Malay? Tell some one to pull the punkah. This plate is dirty; take it away and bring another. Put the dish down upon that tray. Weigh the meat when it is brought every day. I have weighed the beef; there is half a catty too little. How many months did you work for that gentleman? On what account did you leave?
[LESSON XXXIV.]
Preparations for Departure.
I am going away to —— on Friday next— Sahaya handak ka-luar ka-kampong anu pada hari juma‘at yang datang ini.
Pack up enough clothes for a few days— Kemas-kan kain-kain mana chukup sampei dua tiga ampat hari lama-nia.
You need not take so many; I am not going for good— Ta’payah bagitu baniak, ta’kan orang handak pergi langsong.
Put all these clothes into a box— Isi-kan kain-kain ini sumua dalam peti.
Will this go in?— Chelus-kah ini.
