the stories that happened yesterday
twilight in Sarawak

when i said "kuningnya hari!" my friends here would give rather awkward looks at me and then laugh. it happened twice okay.
then i understood. they never use such statement here. however in sarawak it's a rather normal thing to say. even my mum, grandma, aunts, cousins, chinese neighbours...
hmm.
and hey, could you even imagine how it'd be like to translate "twilight" in other languages?
Denmark: Tusmorke
German: Biss
Norway: Evighetens Kyss
Finland: Houkutus
West M'sia: senja / maghrib
then suddenly...
Sarawak: HARI YANG KUNING
oh no.
