Questions & Answers about Mereka mengaudit pematuhan.

What does mereka mean, and can it mean he or she?

Mereka means they or them, depending on context.

In this sentence, it is the subject, so it means they.

It does not mean he or she. Malay has separate words such as dia or ia for he/she. Also, mereka is plural, so it refers to more than one person.

Why is the verb mengaudit and not just audit?

Malay often adds prefixes to verbs. Here, the base word is audit, and the prefix meng- is added to form the active verb mengaudit, meaning to audit.

So:

• audit = audit
• mengaudit = to audit / are auditing / audit, depending on context

This is very common in Malay formal writing and speech.

Why does the prefix become meng- here?
