please give the present form, past form, and future form.
If there isn't any (present, past, and future form)
then say there isn't any.

The word itself doesn't change when changing tenses. The tense is indicated within the context of the sentence by giving the time the action occured, with the exception that when speaking in the past tense "le" is often added to indicate that an action has been completed already.

(present) "I am eating." = Wo zai chi fan.
(wo = I, zai = am, chi = eat (eating), fan = food/a meal)

(past) "Yesterday, I ate." = Zuo tian wo chi le fan.
(zuo tian = yesterday, wo = I, chi = eat, le = le (makes past tense), fan = food/a meal)

(future) "I will eat tomorrow." = Wo ming tian hui chi fan.
(wo = I, ming tian = tomorrow, hui = will, chi = eat, fan = food/a meal)


please give me plural form of these words~
brother sister man woman
tree water fire sky mountain
dog chicken fish
if there is not a plural form for that word then please tell me it does not exist.

You indicate the quantity within the context of the sentence, but the word itself doesn't change.
"one fish" = yi tiao yu (yi = one, tiao = unit of measure for fish, yu = fish)
"eight fish" = ba tiao yu (ba = eight, tiao = unit of measure for fish, yu = fish)



1. The man killed two chickens.
Ta sha le liang zhi ji.
(He killed two chickens.)

2. The red sky is beautiful.
Hong se de tian zhen mei.

3. The woman who fed the fish ate the chicken
Wei yu de tai tai chi le ji.
(nu ren = woman/female, but in regular speaking, to use nu ren is strange. Usually I would be more specific in indicating the age of the woman. For instance, mei mei = little girls, xiao jie = young lady, tai tai = an middle age woman, popo = senior woman [grandmother age])

4. The man's sister is beautiful.
Ta de jie jie/mei mei zhen piao liang.
(His older/younger sister is beautiful. jie jie = older sis, mei mei = younger sis)

5. My brother is good.

What language do you speak? Cantonese Chinese
How long did you speak this language? 4 years
Where do you speak this language? At home, Cantonese friends and family

Note:
1) My Cantonese isn�t the greatest.
2) There is a difference between the �speaking the written form� compared to the �actual speaking form�. But you can write using this �speaking form� its just not considered formal.
3) I used the �speaking� form in this
4) Pronunciations look different because of the romanization (or if some people just sounded it out) schemes used. In Hong Kong, Cantonese Pinyin but you�d never find this in like a textbook. For exact pronunciations, tone numbers would have to be used in schemes like Yale or Jyutping. Cantonese Pinyin makes more sense to English speakers but Jyutping follows more closely to the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). The list below uses Cantonese Pinyin while the sentences use Jyutping because I don�t know all Cantonese Pinyin for colloquial words.
5) Its probably worth noting the j in Jyutping sounds more like y in English.

What language do you speak? Indonesian
How long did you speak this language? 21 (my whole life)
Where do you speak this language? When I'm talking to other Indonesians, but even then I usually switch it up with English

please translate these words in your language~ just spell it out in English

brother/sister - for siblings, it's "kakak" if he/she is older and "adik" if he/she is younger, and both are gender-neutral (to indicate the gender we add the indonesian word for "male" and "female" behind it)
man - lelaki or laki-laki
woman - perempuan
tree - pohon
water - air
fire - api
sky - langit
mountain - gunung
dog - anjing
chicken - ayam
fish - ikan
red - merah
white - putih
green - hijau
black - hitam
good - baik
tall - tinggi
beautiful - indah if it's an object, cantik if it's a person
intelligent - pintar
die - mati
kill - bunuh

feed - beri makan
burn - bakar
one - satu
two - dua
three - tiga
four - empat
five -lima
run - lari
talk - bicara
sleep - tidur
see - lihat
create - cipta

please give the present form, past form, and future form.
there isn't any... we just indicate the time

please give me plural form of these words~
for plurals, the regular form is to simply repeat the word
e.g. older brothers - kakak-kakak, trees - pohon-pohon
there are irregulars but they're usually just substitutes for the regulars
e.g. "trees" can be "pepohonan", but "pohon-pohon" works just fine and is actually more commonly used
and note that these are just general rules, so there are exceptions

The man killed two chickens - Lelaki itu membunuh dua ekor ayam.
The red sky is beautiful - Langit merah itu indah.
The woman who fed the fish ate the chicken - Perempuan yang memberi makan ikan tersebut makan ayam itu.
The man's sister is beautiful - Kakak/adik perempuan dari laki-laki itu cantik.
My brother is good - Kakakku baik.
Tall trees burn easily - Pohon tinggi mudah terbakar.
Two dogs died - Dua ekor anjing mati tadi malam. ("tadi malam" means "last night" which indicates time)
Michael is leaving on Friday at noon - Michael akan berangkat Jumat siang ("akan" means "will", as otherwise it wouldn't be clear if he has left or if he will be leaving)
The computer printer is on the table next to the computer - Printer itu ada di atas meja di sebelah komputer.

Wow, this little exercise made me realize how terrible my Indonesian is when I try to speak formally. It was fun though, and a nice break from studying for finals. Hope that helps, pm me if you have any question.

[yanshimkim]

4. The man's sister is beautiful. ANG KAPATID NG LALAKING BABAE AY MAGANDA

Can I correct this? ^^;; It could be this way:

Ang kapatid na babae ng lalaki ay maganda. Because "lalaking babae" would be something like, erm, a masculine guy? lesbian? gay? It could mean a lot of things... In the wrong way. ^^;; Did you take formal Filipino classes, or do you just speak it at home? Different dialects could have different ways of saying things... I'm just basing what I said on what I learned in school (high school and college Filipino classes).

Okay, here's my info:

Name: Justine
What language do you speak? English and Filipino (Tagalog)
How long did you speak this language? English (since birth, for more than 18 years), Filipino (for more than 8 years)
Where do you speak this language? Filipino - practically everywhere, especially in school and at home (everyday); English - when I talk to my non-Filipino speaking relatives and friends (which is occasionally, since I've been living in the Philippines right now, I can't recall having an English conversation in the past 7 years ._.)

Note: I haven't been speaking Filipino my whole life... It's my second language. I started speaking, reading and writing in it when I was 10. But I've understood it for as long as I could remember, as my parents and other relatives spoke it at home. I've taken up formal Filipino classes in high school and college, so I guess my Filipino is good enough to pass college-level Filipino classes (and a handful of English-Filipino or Filipino-English translation classes ^^). Nowadays, I speak more Filipino (more like Taglish) than English. But I write in English more than I do in Filipino. Haha, it's complicated. ^^;;

Another thing... The terms I'll use here are the more formal words. There are a lot of slang words in Filipino and even the slang varies depending on the dialect and the area (people in Manila speak different slang than people in my province, Laguna). Plus, there's "Taglish" which is a mix of Tagalog (Filipino) and English, and people generally use that more often in speech than formal Filipino (which is mostly used in school, for essays and such). Just to clear things up. ^^;;

please translate these words in your language~ just spell it out in English

brother - kapatid na lalaki (older brother - kuya, there is no term for "younger brother")
sister - kapatid na babae (older sister - ate, no term for "younger sister")
man - lalaki
woman - babae
tree - puno
water - tubig
fire - apoy
sky - kalangitan (as in a cloudy sky :x) or himpapawid (as in the sky that airplanes fly in, it's complicated :x)
mountain - bundok
dog - aso
chicken - manok
fish - isda
red - pula
white - puti
green - berde, luntian
black - itim
good - mabait (as in a nice personality), mabuti (as in something that's good for you)
tall - matangkad (tall height), mataas (high, tall, as in a tall object)
beautiful - maganda
intelligent - matalino
die - mamatay (to die)
kill - patayin (to kill)
eat - kain, kumain (to eat)
feed - pakainin (to feed)
burn - sunugin (to burn), or sunog (a burned object) or paso (a burn on a body part)
one - isa (one), una (first)
two - dalawa (two), pangalawa (second)
three - tatlo (three), pangatlo (third)
four - apat (four), pang-apat (fourth)
five - lima (five), panlima (fifth)
