"Dia tidak mendengar percakapan kita."

Translation: He does not hear our conversation.

[NudibranchsRcool]

Just wondering how often "cakap" is used in Indonesian. In Malay they use it all the time, but I haven't heard it used with my friends in Indo.

[Paul148530]

He does not listen to our conversation

[frouk13]

mendengarkan = listen to

[_adrianpop_]

Reminder:

• The prefix pe- and the affix -an are used to form nouns

• Percakapan means conversation

• The root is cakap (noun) which means talk (bicara is a synonym)

why is "he cannot hear our conversation" marked wrong if there is not present or past tense in Bahasa Indonesian.

He cannot hear our conversation, was marked wrong however it is the way we say it in English,
