Seseorang menghubungi pemilik rumah.

Yes. Seseorang means someone, somebody, or literally a person in an indefinite sense.

It is made from:

• se- = one
• orang = person

So it is related to the idea of one person. In actual usage, though, you usually just translate it as someone.

It is singular, not plural.

Menghubungi is the normal active verb form here.

The base/root is:

• hubung = connection / connect

From that, Malay forms the verb:

• menghubungi = to contact, to get in touch with

This uses the meN- verb prefix, which often marks an active verb.

By contrast:

• hubungi by itself is usually an imperative: contact!
  • Example: Hubungi saya. = Contact me.

So in a full statement like Seseorang menghubungi pemilik rumah, menghubungi is the correct form.

Most commonly, menghubungi means to contact or to get in touch with.

Depending on context, it could refer to:

• calling by phone
• messaging
• emailing
• contacting in a general sense

So it is often broader than just call.

For example:

• Saya menghubungi dia semalam. = I contacted him/her yesterday.

If the context is clearly about a phone call, English might translate it as called.

Literally, it is owner house, but natural English is homeowner or house owner.

Breakdown:

• pemilik = owner
• rumah = house / home

So:

• pemilik rumah = the owner of the house / the homeowner

This is a very common Malay pattern: one noun followed by another noun to show a relationship.

Because Malay often expresses this kind of relationship just by putting nouns next to each other.

So:

• pemilik rumah = owner of the house
• kereta polis = police car
• bilik tidur = bedroom

English often uses of, but Malay often does not.

So pemilik rumah is completely normal Malay, even though a word-for-word English translation sounds incomplete.

Malay does not normally use articles like a, an, or the the way English does.

So:

• pemilik rumah could mean a homeowner, the homeowner, or the owner of the house
• the exact meaning depends on context

Likewise:

• rumah can mean a house, the house, or just house/home in a general sense

This is very normal in Malay. Context does a lot of the work that articles do in English.

Yes, the basic word order here is the same:

• Seseorang = subject
• menghubungi = verb
• pemilik rumah = object

So the pattern is:

Subject + Verb + Object

That makes this sentence fairly straightforward for an English speaker.

It can mean either one, depending on context.

Malay verbs do not usually change form for tense the way English verbs do. So menghubungi by itself does not tell you whether the action is:

• present: contacts / is contacting
• past: contacted
• sometimes even future, if context supports it

Time is often shown by context or time words such as:

• semalam = yesterday
• sekarang = now
• esok = tomorrow

So without extra context, the sentence is tense-neutral.

Not always.

• pemilik rumah = owner of the house / homeowner
• tuan rumah can mean host, and in some contexts also house owner or landlord

So tuan rumah has a broader meaning and is not always exactly the same.

If you want to be clear that you mean the legal or actual owner, pemilik rumah is more precise.

Yes, it is natural and grammatically correct.

It sounds fairly neutral and standard. A native speaker would understand it easily.

Depending on context, they might choose a more specific sentence, for example:

• Seseorang menelefon pemilik rumah. = Someone called the homeowner.
• Seseorang menghubungi tuan rumah itu. = Someone contacted that homeowner/host.

But your original sentence is perfectly good Malay.
