KAMUS DEWAN PRO
Kamus Pro now runs on your Windows Mobile-powered PDA. I ended up disabling “Disable or replace context menu” in my Firefox advanced Javascript preference.Now, you can learn English or Malay anywhere! You see, I wanted to open the link on a different tab on my Firefox but Karyanet tried to prevent me from doing this. It is easier to find the online Kamus Dewan from Google search than the Karyanet menu system! And the popup thanking me for using Karyanet which appears every time I right click on a link (actually not just links, everything) is extremely annoying. But the website is rather busy and the navigation is rather bad. The online Kamus Dewan alone will get me coming back every so often. Karyanet and DBP should be lauded for making the Malay language more accessible. Maybe, I should sharpen my Malay writing skills and become a karyawan at Karyanet. It is a place for budding writers to publish their original work. Incidentally, Karyanet hosts more than just Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP) online dictionaries. In retrospect, ‘Kod.Karma’ would have sounded just as good. Apparently not, according to Kamus Dewan. Actually, I was trying to see if the word ‘koda’ in my ‘ Koda.Karma‘ blog site name is a sanctioned Malay word. That would have directly led me to the Karyanet site which hosts the online Kamus Dewan. Oh, why did it take this long for me to find this gem? I have been looking for a reliable online Malay dictionary for so long and it did not occur to me to type ‘kamus dewan’ in a Google search. ( Please see Kamus Dewan moved for latest updates.) (See also Karyanet ditutup sementara! (Karyanet closed temporarily) where I initially found Rujukan Kamus Terbitan DBP which seemed to be an incomplete half-baked version of Carian Kata DBP.) I reckon Carian Kata is the coolest thing DBP has ever created for us Malay language users. I know Valentine’s Day has passed already, but you could search pantuns on ‘ cinta‘ (love) or ‘ merana‘ (agony), for example. One neat thing also is, from the same place, you could search Malay pantuns (rhymes). The All (‘ Semua‘) category is pretty useless because it would only return the number of matches from each category. Just make sure you pick one search category (‘ Kategori‘). The usability could still be improved (the page reloading and window resizing problems are driving me nuts) but I would say this is the ultimate tool for Bahasa Melayu users. You could now search words in Kamus Dewan and other DBP great resources like Tesaurus Bahasa Melayu Dewan (thesaurus), Kamus Inggeris-Melayu Dewan (English-Malay dictionary), Kamus Pelajar (learner’s dictionary), Kamus Istimewa Peribahasa Melayu (Malay idioms dictionary) and Kamus Komputer (computer dictionary), among other things, all at the same time at Carian Kata DBP. Kamus Dewan will and should forever be associated with DBP. It bewildered me the first time I learned about the online Kamus Dewan not being hosted at DBP. Could you imagine if WordPress went down that long for maintenance?īut despair not! The online Kamus Dewan has been brought back to where it should have been in the first place - to Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP) web site. Unfortunately Karyanet is down until middle of April this year for “maintenance”. I wrote a little less than a year ago about the Kamus Dewan could already be used online.
