"Tini serta anak-anaknya tinggal di sini."

Translation: Tini and her children live here.

What's special about 'serta'? How is it different to 'dan'

[StephenL1]

I may be wrong but I think it's something like "along with". Very similar meaning and you could substitute for "dan" and would get the same meaning.

[jmaddz]

Ya, could also be translated to "as well as."

I gather that it's just a bit more formal or poetic.

[Diponegoro57]

I think that 'serta' is a bit more than 'dan', meaning 'as well as', 'and also', or 'along with' as examples, but the latter was not accepted, so reported. If I just wanted to express a plain 'and', I would use 'dan' every time!

I said "His children and got it marked wrong, however I didn't know it was a female name so should be marked as correct.

[araj04_plyglt]

Me too lol

[avereliz]

I think most -i names are feminine and -o names are masculine in Indonesia

[Andy481779]

So, Andi is feminine?

[JuliaEdwar479451]

Mine didn't even have "her" as an option to pick and I still got marked wrong.....reporting.

[Pak_John]

This sentence could also mean "Tini and her children stay here"

[MickIceWater]

I said he and not she because I am not familiar with the names. should still have been marked right

What is the difference between dan and serta? I would like an explanations please.

[AnthonKur]

serta: with
dan: and
I think the translation is a bit off here.
