I am a Malaysian who has been living in Japan for over 20 years, so there are some words I have forgotten, so it was nice to refresh my memory. Terima Kasih Banyak!

I’ve been living in Malaysia for 6 months and found this course very useful and helpful to understand the basics of the language. Easy to follow and to complete at your own pace. Thank you Nur!

The course was nice. The only video I expected, 'Questionary Words and Forming Questions,' was missing. If it is added to the future syllabus, this course would be ideal for beginners.
