"Dia mengajar di sekolah."

Translation: He teaches at school.

[S9N1t]

Should also accept "at the school" and "at a school". Maybe in the US you say "at school" for a teacher, but in NZ we'd say "at the school" being a workplace. We say a child is "at school". For a teacher, we might say they are "at school" if they were physically there, but describing their job, we'd say "They teach at the school".

" di sekolah " can be translated as both " at the school " and " at a school ".

[Jayaprakas1816]

Why not she teach at the school

[Away54]

"she teaches at the school" should be accepted.

[michaelfstanley]

She teaches at school should also be correct

[Away54]

"dia" can mean: "he" or "she". Yes, it should be correct as well.

[Tongincheek]

she teaches at the school - this is marked wrong!!!

[absolutegraves]

I put - She teaches at the school. Wrong.

[3ric4ik]

Me + ajar: meNGajar.

[Lims41]

I it also correct to say: He teaches school?

[Away54]

He teaches school = dia mengajar sekolah.

It's ambiguous. We can't teach a building but people.

But, we may say:

He teaches his students at school = dia mengajar murid-muridnya di sekolah.

Why does putting 'meng' infront of 'belajar' change it from learn to teach

[Lissa502270]

The root word is "ajar". Adding bel- (usually ber-) means to learn/study. Adding me(ng)- means to teach. Adding pe(ng)- means teacher. Different affixes produce different meanings and different parts of speech.

She teaches in the school
Is this wrong

[S9N1t]

Not wrong, just less common. Eg "She teaches in the School of Education".

[Tamara854248]

Could it be "she is teaching at the school"?

[SarahMiiHo]

Still not accepting the school. Nov 2020.
