-esen
Malay
Etymology
Borrowed from English -ation, from Latin -ātiō. Doublet of -esyen, -sen, -asi, -si, and -syen
Pronunciation
- IPA(key): /-esen/
- Hyphenation: -é‧sén
Usage notes
In newer adaptations of English loanwords ending in -ation, alongside with -esyen, this is now replaced by -asi in an effort to make the ending of words of this kind uniform with its Dutch-derived counterparts in Indonesian (compare imigresen for immigration and implementasi for implementation).
