“Sayur saya” means I am a vegetable!
“Sayur sahaja” means only vegetables.
In Malaysia they understand chicken, fish, and shellfish to be included in that.
Trouble is they can’t be bothered with long lists.
I found it best to request what you actually want, then clarify what you don’t want in it.
Like:
Mee goreng dengan bawang puteh, lobok merah, cendawan (they say ch for written c)
lagi kentung goreng
Saya tak makan darah
Tak nak:
- daging (they pronounce “dahgeng”)
- ikan,
- udang (pronounced “udung”)
- sos tiram
- susu (”soosoo”)
