Questions & Answers about Kamu tentu sudah sarapan.
Kamu is the everyday, informal “you” (singular).
Use kamu with:
- Friends
- People your age or younger
- People you are close to
Avoid kamu with:
- Strangers who are clearly older
- Teachers, bosses, or people you should show respect to
With those people, you’d usually replace kamu with:
- Anda (neutral, polite “you”)
- Or titles like Bapak / Pak (sir, Mr.) and Ibu / Bu (ma’am, Mrs.), often without saying Anda at all.
So Kamu tentu sudah sarapan sounds friendly/informal, not formal or respectful.
Kamu is grammatically singular (“you” to one person).
To say “you” plural, use:
- kalian = “you all”, “you guys”
Examples:
- Kamu tentu sudah sarapan. – said to one person.
- Kalian tentu sudah sarapan. – said to a group.
In casual speech, some people may still use kamu while speaking to more than one person, but if you want to be clear and safe as a learner, use kalian for plural.
