"Kami punya sarung tangan putih."

Translation: We have white gloves.

Does Sarung have anything to do with sarong?

[Lydia406879]

Just based on the etymology listed on Wiktionary, yes - the English use of sarong to mean a wrap dress comes from Malay/Indonesian, and 'sarung tangan' are 'hand wraps'.

[kholden83]

Foot shirts and hand dresses.

[RamenDutchman]

I know this is all completely serious but "foot shirts" and "hand dresses" are cracking me up rn!

[BrianViolin]

Punya : what's the usage of mempunyai / memiliki in this same sentence? I get these words suggested over "punya" by translator

[Tirpude]

Why is tangan there? It could be any kind of gloves

[kholden83]

Because "sarung" alone does not mean glove, it means sarong or certain types of dress. The "tangan" is required to mean glove.
