Indonesian language is an easy language. If you happen to have a dictionary and can read; I bet you would be able to speak our language immediately. We don't have past tense, future tense, or present tense. You just need to put all the nouns or verbs together, you already make sense/ or even sentence. LOL Husband is Suami in Indonesian. Wife is Istri in Indonesian. So in short, when you wanna say husband - wife; you just have to say suami istri.
