What's the difference between "berada" and "ada"?

[Rick392366]

What's the difference between "berada" and "ada"?

In this sentence, there is no difference.
'berada' is more formal.
It has the same meaning:

Mereka berada di sana.
Mereka ada di sana.
Mereka di sana.

Can duolingo please stop with the outdated super formal ways of saying thing ada works perfectly fine in place of berada all its doing is confusing amd disheartening people

[Adam117151]

Could it bot just be mereka di sana? For ease of communication for learners?

[AVAX3M]

Yes.

[Haiduke]

What about "Mereka berada di sini" ?

[Rjoidna]

Di sini is here
Di sana is over thefe

[Rjoidna]

There*

[Rod919310]

Di sini means "here"
But it says they are there "di sana"

[DwiiStrawg]

"They are there" lebih ke "Mereka ada". Sedangkan "Mereka berada di sana" harusnya "They are over there". Duolingo,pliz fix this

[Garry_G]

Duolingo is not fixing anything, only interested in your upgrade. But as long as so many bugs and translation flaws existing, nobody should pay, even no benefit!
