"Mereka tidak suka pers."

Translation: They do not like the press.

[Ria___]

I think this is supposed to be "pres" not "pers"?

[DiegoJaviUnlam]

Halo teman! I think the word "pres" is used for a kind of machine, while "pers" (from Dutch "pers", English translation: "press"), is referring to the "newspaper service", "press" as media.

It is interesting that the pronunciation of "pers" in Indonesian just sounds like "press" in English.

[S9N1t]

I don't know if they have changed the audio since you commented, but it does not sound the same now; it sounds like the Indonesian spelling. But the audio is not always reliable, eg 'sup' and 'baca' are still wrong in spite of many comments.

[tiis2013]

The pronunciation of "pers" seems incorrect. The e is supposed to sound like e in "help".

[S9N1t]

Yes, the audio makes the "e" sound like English "er". But is that wrong? The Google Translate pronunciation has a woman's voice and also pronounces it "er". Where else can we verify pronunciations?

[tiis2013]

If you look it up in Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia, it shows that it is using è (pèrs) instead of normal e
