Questions & Answers about Jawaban kamu tepat.

What does each word in Jawaban kamu tepat do?

• jawaban = answer
• kamu = you / your in an informal singular sense
• tepat = correct, accurate, exact, appropriate depending on context

So the structure is basically:

• jawaban kamu = your answer
• tepat = the description of that answer

In natural English, the whole sentence is Your answer is correct.

Why is there no word for is in this sentence?

Indonesian often leaves out the verb to be when connecting a subject to an adjective or noun.

So:

• Jawaban kamu tepat literally looks like Your answer correct
• but it naturally means Your answer is correct

This is very normal in Indonesian. You do not need to add a word for is here.

Why does kamu come after jawaban instead of before it?

In Indonesian, possessors usually come after the noun.

So:

• jawaban kamu = your answer
• literally: answer your

This is the normal pattern. English says your answer, but Indonesian usually says answer your.
