Saya suka telur rebus untuk sarapan.

In Indonesian, descriptive words usually come after the noun they describe.

So:

• telur = egg / eggs
• rebus = boiled

That gives telur rebus = boiled egg(s).

If you say rebus telur, that sounds like a verb phrase meaning boil eggs.

So the difference is:

• telur rebus = boiled eggs
• rebus telur = to boil eggs / boil the eggs

It can mean either egg or eggs. Indonesian nouns usually do not change form for singular and plural.

So telur rebus could mean:

• a boiled egg
• boiled eggs

The exact number is understood from context.

If you want to make it clearly plural, you could say:

• telur-telur rebus = boiled eggs

But in normal speech, Indonesian often leaves number unstated unless it matters.

In Indonesian, suka means to like, and it can be followed directly by a noun.

So:

• Saya suka telur rebus = I like boiled eggs

You do not need an extra verb like eat unless you specifically want to mention the action.

If you want to say I like eating boiled eggs, you could say:

• Saya suka makan telur rebus

But the shorter sentence is completely natural and already implies liking them as food.

Untuk usually means for, and sarapan means breakfast.

So untuk sarapan literally means for breakfast.

In this sentence, it means that boiled eggs are something the speaker likes as a breakfast food.

So:

• Saya suka telur rebus untuk sarapan = I like boiled eggs for breakfast

This is natural Indonesian.

Yes, but the nuance is a little different.

• untuk sarapan = for breakfast
• sebagai sarapan = as breakfast

Both can work, but untuk sarapan is often the more natural everyday choice in a sentence like this.

Compare:

• Saya suka telur rebus untuk sarapan = I like boiled eggs for breakfast
• Saya suka telur rebus sebagai sarapan = I like boiled eggs as breakfast

The second one is understandable, but may sound slightly more formal or less conversational.

Indonesian does not use articles the way English does.

So Indonesian usually does not mark:

• a
• an
• the

That means telur rebus can mean:

• a boiled egg
• boiled eggs
• the boiled eggs

Context tells you which meaning fits.

This is very normal in Indonesian and is one of the big differences from English.

No. Saya is just one common choice.

Some possibilities are:

• saya = I, polite/neutral
• aku = I, informal and personal

So you could also say:

• Aku suka telur rebus untuk sarapan

That sounds more casual.

In many spoken situations, Indonesian can also drop the subject if it is already obvious from context, but saya is a very standard and safe choice for learners.

It is neutral to polite, mainly because of saya.

• Saya sounds polite and standard.
• suka, telur rebus, and untuk sarapan are all normal everyday vocabulary.

If you want a more casual version, you could say:

• Aku suka telur rebus untuk sarapan

That sounds more relaxed and conversational.

Yes, a little.

The original sentence:

• Saya suka telur rebus untuk sarapan

is perfectly natural.

You could also say:

• Untuk sarapan, saya suka telur rebus.

This puts for breakfast first for emphasis, similar to For breakfast, I like boiled eggs in English.

Both are correct. The original version is simpler and very natural.

In telur rebus, rebus functions like a describing word meaning boiled.

Indonesian often uses words very flexibly, so a form like rebus can be connected to the idea of boiling as an action, but in this sentence it is part of the noun phrase telur rebus = boiled egg(s).

So for a learner, the easiest way to think of it is:

• rebus after a noun = describing the noun
• rebus before a noun in a command or verb phrase = the action boil

Example:

• telur rebus = boiled eggs
• Rebus telur! = Boil the eggs!

You use tidak before suka.

So:

• Saya tidak suka telur rebus untuk sarapan. = I do not like boiled eggs for breakfast.

Here:

• tidak negates verbs and adjectives
• suka is being negated

That is the normal way to say it.

A simple yes/no question can be made just by using question intonation in speech:

• Saya suka telur rebus untuk sarapan?

But a more natural way is often to use apakah:

• Apakah saya suka telur rebus untuk sarapan?

If you are asking someone else, you would usually change the subject:

• Apakah kamu suka telur rebus untuk sarapan? = Do you like boiled eggs for breakfast?

So the sentence structure stays mostly the same.
