How to Learn Indonesian from Scratch

You don't need a classroom or a tutor to start learning Indonesian. Follow these four simple steps on Indilingo and go from your very first letters to everyday conversations at your own pace.

  1. Start with the Latin script and sounds

    Get comfortable reading Indonesian's Latin letters and the sounds they make. Indilingo introduces them a few at a time, so the alphabet never feels overwhelming.

  2. Build everyday Indonesian vocabulary

    Learn the greetings, numbers and common Indonesian phrases you will actually use — taught from your own mother tongue so the meaning sticks from day one.

  3. Practise speaking out loud

    Use Indilingo's AI speaking and pronunciation practice to say Indonesian words out loud and get instant feedback, so you gain real, usable confidence.

  4. Keep a short daily streak
