"Andi menyapu rumahnya di sore hari."

Translation: Andi sweeps his house in the afternoon.

[letmeaskmymum]

Andi is a gender neutral name - at least in English. It makes it confusing to say its his?

[Radzkazetz]

In Indonesia, the name Andi is mostly used by men. Girl are rarely called Andi in Indonesia

[agusdallalba]

Could 'rumahnya' mean 'the house' in this sentence?

[Rick392366]

No.
In this sentence, 'nya' refers to Andi.
'rumahnya' = 'rumah dia' = 'rumah Andi'.

[JarrodMain]

'The house' is just as correct.

[bruce_reed]

Why? How can you know that?

[Speedy12846]

No it is his house not the house.

[bruce_reed]

Why can you say that so definitely?

[I8mienaB]

How would you say "in the afternoons"?

[AnitaRRC]

Here di sore hari is afternoon. Why not petang?

[fhwqhgads]

Petang is dusk, the time of sunset. Which in Indonesia comes after 6pm all year. Petang is in malam time, not sore.

[Ramjam720]

Rumahnya is "his house" OR " the house", right?

[petervdg]

I have a sister that is called Andi

[petervdg]

Andi is a boy?

[Bev425285]

Like the sore of the hari? Could it be sore alone?

[mapmanic]

I was wondering the same thing
