English is strange

The English source is un-natural, it is like a bad translation of an Indonesian phrase

[VirginiaCh617896]

I agree. It's a very awkward sentence. They should have a native English speaker check their sentences first. They can say, "The book is not mine" or "That is not my book" but a native English speaker would NEVER say, "This book does not become mine."

Can this also be translated to, "Buku ini tidak menjadi punya saya?"

[zahrachmi]

Yes!

Milik can be translated as possession, property or belongings

Remember, no tenses. So, applying present tense rather than past (became) or future (become) ... menjadi = to be. Hence, is (to be) no longer mine. Some expressions do not translate word for word.
