Juruelektrik datang malam ini.

Because it is a compound noun in Malay.

• juru- is a prefix-like element often used for a person who is skilled in or responsible for something.
• elektrik means electric or relates to electricity.

So juruelektrik means electrician. Malay often combines parts like this into a single word for professions.

Examples:

• juruteknik = technician
• jurubahasa = interpreter / translator

No, you do not need it here.

Malay often allows a bare noun as the subject:

• Juruelektrik datang malam ini.

If you say:

• Seorang juruelektrik datang malam ini.

that gives a stronger sense of an electrician or one electrician. Both are possible, but the version without seorang is very natural.

Malay does not use articles the way English does.

So juruelektrik can mean:

• an electrician
• the electrician

The exact meaning depends on context.

If you want to make it more specific, Malay can use words like:

• itu = that / the one being referred to
• ini = this

For example:

• Juruelektrik itu datang malam ini. = That / the electrician is coming tonight.

Because Malay does not need a helping verb like is before a main verb in this kind of sentence.

In English, you say:

• The electrician is coming tonight.

In Malay, you can simply say:

• Juruelektrik datang malam ini.

The verb datang stands on its own.

Malay verbs do not change form for tense the way English verbs do.

So datang can mean:

• come
• comes
• came
• is coming
• will come

The time is usually understood from context or from time expressions such as malam ini.

In this sentence, malam ini shows that the action is in the future, so datang is understood as is coming / will come.

Not necessarily.

You could say:

• Juruelektrik akan datang malam ini.

This makes the future meaning more explicit. But in everyday Malay, if the time expression already makes the meaning clear, akan is often omitted.

So both are correct:

• Juruelektrik datang malam ini.
• Juruelektrik akan datang malam ini.

The version without akan is very common and natural.

Yes, literally it is night this, because Malay usually puts ini after the noun.

• malam = night
• ini = this

So:

• malam ini = this night, which in natural English is usually tonight

This noun + ini pattern is very common:

• hari ini = today
• minggu ini = this week
• bulan ini = this month

Yes. The basic order is very normal:

• Juruelektrik = subject
• datang = verb
• malam ini = time expression

So the pattern is:

• Subject + Verb + Time

This is a very common Malay sentence structure.

You can also move the time expression to the front for emphasis:

• Malam ini, juruelektrik datang.

That is also correct, but the original order is the most straightforward.

Yes. Depending on context, datang can be understood as come or arrive.

So this sentence could feel like:

• The electrician is coming tonight.
• The electrician will arrive tonight.

Malay often uses one verb where English might choose between several slightly different verbs.

A simple approximation is:

• juruelektrik: joo-roo-eh-lek-trik
• datang: dah-tahng
• malam ini: mah-lahm ee-nee

A few pronunciation notes:

• j sounds like the j in jam
• ng at the end of datang is the sound in song
• Malay spelling is generally quite regular, so words are usually pronounced close to how they are written

Also, Malay does not have strong word stress like English, so the rhythm is usually more even.
