Questions & Answers about Kad kuning kedua menyebabkan kad merah.

Why is it kad kuning and not kuning kad?

In Malay, the noun usually comes first, and descriptive words usually come after it.

So:

• kad = card
• kuning = yellow

That gives kad kuning = yellow card

This is a very common pattern in Malay:

• rumah besar = big house
• kereta merah = red car
• baju putih = white shirt

So kad kuning and kad merah follow normal Malay word order.

Why does kedua come after kad kuning?

Because in Malay, ordinal numbers like first, second, third usually come after the noun they describe.

So:

• kad kuning kedua = the second yellow card

This is different from English, where second comes before the noun.

Compare:

• English: the second yellow card
• Malay: kad kuning kedua

This is normal Malay structure.

Does kedua mean second or both?
