Saya masih belum pasti jurusan mana yang paling sesuai untuk saya, tetapi saya suka bahasa dan sejarah.

Yes, belum pasti already means not sure yet or not certain yet.

Adding masih gives extra emphasis to the idea of still:

• belum pasti = not sure yet
• masih belum pasti = still not sure yet

So masih + belum is a very common combination when you want to stress that the situation is continuing.

This is a very important Malay distinction.

• tidak pasti = not sure / uncertain
• belum pasti = not sure yet

Belum usually implies that something has not happened up to now, but it may happen later.
So in this sentence, belum fits well because the speaker may eventually decide on a major.

Using tidak pasti would sound more like a general statement of uncertainty, without the strong yet meaning.

In Malay, mana often comes after the noun when it means which:

• jurusan mana = which major
• buku mana = which book
• orang mana = which person / what person

So jurusan mana is the normal word order here.

If an English speaker tries to put mana first, that often sounds unnatural in standard Malay.

Jurusan usually means major, field of study, or sometimes academic stream/specialization, depending on context.

In this sentence, it most naturally means college/university major.

So although the English meaning may be shown as major, the Malay word is a bit broader and can refer to the direction or specialization of study.

Here yang links jurusan mana with the description that follows:

• jurusan mana = which major
• yang paling sesuai untuk saya = that is most suitable for me

So yang works a bit like that / which is in English.

You can think of the structure like this:

• jurusan mana yang paling sesuai untuk saya
• which major that is most suitable for me

That is not natural English, but it helps show the Malay structure.

Yang is extremely common in Malay for connecting a noun to a describing phrase.

Sesuai means suitable, appropriate, or a good fit.

• sesuai = suitable
• lebih sesuai = more suitable
• paling sesuai = most suitable

The sentence is talking about choosing among different majors, so paling sesuai means the most suitable one.

This is the usual Malay way to form the superlative:

• paling penting = most important
• paling susah = most difficult
• paling sesuai = most suitable

Yes, both can work, but they are not always identical in tone.

• sesuai untuk saya = suitable for me
• sesuai bagi saya = suitable for me / suitable in my case

In this sentence, untuk saya sounds very natural and straightforward.

A useful rough guide:

• untuk often means for
• bagi can also mean for, but sometimes sounds slightly more formal or abstract depending on context

With sesuai, both are possible, but untuk saya is very common in everyday speech.

Malay often repeats the subject when starting a new clause, especially after connectors like tetapi (but).

So:

• ..., tetapi saya suka bahasa dan sejarah.

This is very natural and clear.

Could Malay sometimes omit the second saya in casual contexts? Yes, especially in speech, if the subject is obvious. But in a full standard sentence, repeating it is normal and usually better.

Malay does not use articles the way English does.

So:

• bahasa can mean language, languages, or the language subject, depending on context
• sejarah can mean history or the subject history

In this sentence, bahasa dan sejarah most likely refers to school/university subjects or areas of interest:

• language(s) and history

Malay also does not normally mark plurals with an ending like English -s. Context usually tells you whether something is singular or plural.

It depends on context, but here it most naturally means language as an area of study or interest, or even languages in a general sense.

Malay often leaves this kind of thing broad:

• saya suka bahasa = I like language / I like languages / I like studying language

If the speaker wanted to be more specific, they might say:

• saya suka bahasa Inggeris = I like English
• saya suka bahasa asing = I like foreign languages

So the bare word bahasa can be quite flexible.

It is very natural and standard. It sounds like something a student might genuinely say.

Parts that make it sound natural:

• masih belum pasti = a common way to express uncertainty
• jurusan mana yang paling sesuai = standard phrasing for talking about majors
• tetapi saya suka bahasa dan sejarah = simple and natural contrast

It is not overly formal, but it is also not slangy. It works well in both writing and careful speech.

Yes. Malay allows some flexibility, though not every change sounds equally natural.

For example, you could say:

• Saya suka bahasa dan sejarah, tetapi saya masih belum pasti jurusan mana yang paling sesuai untuk saya.

This puts the speaker’s interests first, then the uncertainty.

The original version puts the uncertainty first:

• Saya masih belum pasti jurusan mana yang paling sesuai untuk saya, tetapi saya suka bahasa dan sejarah.

That version sounds like:

1. I’m still unsure,
2. but here’s what I do like.

Both are correct. The difference is mainly about emphasis.

No, not in the way English does.

Malay usually does not mark tense directly on the verb. Time is understood from:

• context
• time words
• aspect words like masih, sudah, belum

In this sentence:

• masih = still
• belum = not yet

These show that the uncertainty is true at the present time and is continuing.

So even without a special present-tense verb form, the meaning is clear.
