Hasilnya tergantung pada cuaca.

Hasil means result, outcome, or sometimes yield.

The ending -nya is very common in Indonesian. Here it most naturally makes hasilnya mean the result or the outcome.

Depending on context, -nya can also mean:

• his/her/its
• something already known from context
• a kind of definiteness, similar to the

So in this sentence, hasilnya is best understood as the result.

Yes, literally tergantung comes from gantung, which is related to hang.

But in real usage, tergantung pada is a very common expression meaning to depend on.

So:

• bajunya tergantung di dinding = the clothes are hanging on the wall
• hasilnya tergantung pada cuaca = the result depends on the weather

This kind of metaphor exists in English too: a result can hang on something.

After tergantung or bergantung, Indonesian often uses pada to mean on/upon in an abstract sense.

So tergantung pada cuaca = depends on the weather.

Here, pada does not mean physical location. It marks the thing that something depends on.

This is a standard pattern:

• bergantung pada
• tergantung pada

Yes. That is also correct.

Both are common:

• Hasilnya tergantung pada cuaca
• Hasilnya bergantung pada cuaca

A rough nuance is:

• tergantung often feels a bit more like is dependent on
• bergantung feels a bit more like the basic verb depends on

In many everyday situations, the difference is small, and learners can treat them as near-equivalents.

Yes, especially in informal speech or less formal writing.

• Hasilnya tergantung pada cuaca = fuller, more standard
• Hasilnya tergantung cuaca = shorter, more conversational

Both are understood. As a learner, using pada is a safe choice because it sounds complete and natural in a wide range of contexts.

Indonesian often does not use a copula like is/am/are the way English does.

So instead of saying something like The result is dependent on the weather, Indonesian can simply say:

• Hasilnya tergantung pada cuaca

Here, tergantung pada cuaca already works as the predicate, so no separate is is needed.

Also, adalah would not normally be used here.
Hasilnya adalah tergantung pada cuaca sounds unnatural.

Because Indonesian does not have articles like a and the.

So cuaca can mean:

• weather
• the weather

Context tells you which meaning is intended.

In this sentence, English naturally uses the weather, but Indonesian just says cuaca.

By itself, Indonesian nouns usually do not show singular or plural clearly.

So hasil could refer to:

• result
• results

In this sentence, hasilnya will usually be understood as singular because that is the most natural reading: the result.

If the speaker wanted to make plurality clearer, they might use context or another word. Indonesian relies heavily on context for number.

Yes. The normal order is:

• Hasilnya = subject/topic
• tergantung pada cuaca = predicate

So Hasilnya tergantung pada cuaca is the natural order.

If you rearrange it too much, it can sound unnatural. For example, Pada cuaca hasilnya tergantung is not the normal way to say this.

As a learner, it is best to keep this pattern:

• [thing] + tergantung pada + [what it depends on]

For example:

• Keberhasilannya tergantung pada usaha = Its success depends on effort
• Panennya tergantung pada cuaca = The harvest depends on the weather

Yes. Very often, Indonesian speakers simply say:

• Tergantung. = It depends.

They can also add the thing it depends on:

• Tergantung cuaca. = It depends on the weather.
• Tergantung pada situasi. = It depends on the situation.

So the sentence you are learning is one full version with an explicit subject:

• Hasilnya tergantung pada cuaca.
