Questions & Answers about Penyiram ini penuh dengan air.

What does penyiram mean exactly?

Penyiram comes from the root siram, which is related to watering, pouring water on something, or sprinkling.

In this sentence, penyiram most naturally means a watering can or a watering device. Depending on context, it could also refer more generally to something used for watering, but watering can is a very natural understanding here.

Why is there no word for is in the sentence?

Malay often leaves out the verb to be in simple sentences like this.

So:

• Penyiram ini penuh dengan air
  literally looks like
• watering can this full with water

But it naturally means:

• This watering can is full of water

This is completely normal in Malay. You do not need a separate word for is here.

Why does ini come after penyiram instead of before it?
