Let speak bout' Linguistic historica.
Well today's Berita Minggu touch the issue of where does the name Melayu came by.In it Professor Dr Amat Juhari Moain,from University Putra Malaysia says that the word Melayu stands by itself and not as a noun or imbuhan as in me-layu (as in withered).Contradict to that, Melayu actually was Malayu,which is a name of a river that is known to flow rapidly and is located far south in Sumatera.Back then in malay linguist, there are only 3 vowels; 'a', 'i' and 'u'.As the language develop the vowel 'e' appears and consequently Malayu became Melayu.
Therefore,it gives a positive approach and uphold to the word Melayu which could be link with the words fast, rapid and thus progress.
Propter hoc,Melayu means a progressive race and not a withered community.
Let me give ya'll another example extracted from DenganSecaraKebetulan.
Do you know "Melayu" means "to run" in Sanskrit? So Malaya, originally the land of the Malays, was also known as Tanah Pelarian or Land of the People Who Ran(immigrants/refugees).
-dengansecarakebetulan
There's a similar significance from this both article.The word fast, rapid and run.All denoted the same meanings in some circumstances.
Come lets be a melayu nation...
My house looks as tho' tomorrow is Syawal.Some bits of cleaning here and there, change of bedsheets and the erection of a new shelf.And most obvious is the change of new curtains,wohoo.Got to help in piercing the curtains pin and putting them up.Nevertheless Dad did most of it.
Wonder why?
Yup,Next week my dad's last and youngest brother is gonna get married.And the ceremony is taking place here as Grandma is here...sort of.Tho' uncle already got a house few months back.Can't wait for it.
I wish i could bring the digicam for 7th August, the Flag day.But the nikah is on the day itself and most probably dads gonna use it for the ceremony.Hmm...
at ease
