I have a question! When I introduce myself, i always use "kenalkan". I had no question about this word, but suddenly i am wondering of this word. Kenalkan is from the word memperkenalkan? atau mengenalkan? And is it ok that i don't add me- infront of kenalkan? Please explain it. Sometimes indonesian grammar is too difficult.

I have a question!

When I introduce myself, i always use "kenalkan".
I had no question about this word, but suddenly i am wondering of this word.

Kenalkan is from the word memperkenalkan? atau mengenalkan?
And is it ok that i don't add me- infront of kenalkan?
Please explain it.

'Kenalkan' derived from word 'kenal'. You can add me- infront of 'kenalkan' when you are introduce someone to another.

Ex: Saya ingin mengenalkan seorang temanku kepadamu

     I want to introduce my friend to you

 

Some variations to introduce yourself in Bahasa:

- Perkenalkan, nama saya...

- Kenalkan, saya... (unformal)

- Nama saya... senang mengenalmu,

"Kenal" is the basic word. Then you add the prefix and suffix. kenal + /-an/ = kenalkan /mem-/ + /per-/ + kenal + /-kan/ = memperkenalkan /me-/ + kenal + /-kan/ = mengenalkan ("k" here is changed because of the prefix) Grammatically, the added prefix or suffix or prefix+suffix changes the meaning. You can't use "Memperkenalkan diri, nama saya ~" but you use "Kenalkan, nama saya ~" I think you can use "Saya memperkenalkan diri saya padanya." Or like tirah said before "Saya ingin memperkenalkan diri saya. Nama saya~" To be honest, I'm not sure the different usage between "memperkenalkan" and "mengenalkan". Bahasa Indonesia teacher.... a little help please? ^_^;

if you want use "memperkenalkan diri " when you intrduce yourself its better you say like this " saya ingin memperkenalkan diri ( i want introduce my self )" .

Terima kasih atas jawaban Anda. Bolehkah pakai seperti ini? "Memperkenalkan diri, nama saya ~" Kadang-kadang saya sangat bingung karena bahasa indonesia suka yang pendek. Terima kasih lagi :)

it's right to use "kenalkan" when you introduce yourself. kenalkan is from the word "kenal" "memperkenalkan/mengenalkan" is used if you introduce someone (not you) to other people. are you still confused use it?
