Telah is a kind of formal forms.

๐ŸŽต T'lah or tlah /tlah/ is the short form of telah.
It is commonly used in poems, poetry or songs because it gives poetic vibes.



You can use sudah /su.dah/ to make your sentence a bit casual. You can use it in formal occasions.

Risu sudah mandi. ๐Ÿ›€

Bonus:

This expression
Apa saja yang sudah
Anda lakukan hari ini?
(What have you done today?

is too formal.

Instead, just use this ๐Ÿ‘‡

Sudah ngapain aja hari ini?

โ€ขโ€ขโ€ข Menanyakan kabar (asking conditions)

When you meet someone, you can use the following expression after greeting them๐Ÿ‘‡

Formal and semi formal occasions:
โ€ข Apa kabar?
โ€ข Bagaimana kabarnya?
โ€ข Gimana kabarnya?


All expressions mean "how are you". They are basic and common questions.
Gimana is the shorten form of bagaimana. It's considered as informal and used for family or close friends.

The following expressions are examples of how to respond them ๐Ÿ‘‡
1. Baik-baik saja.
2. Baik aja.
3. Alhamdulillah baik.

All expressions mean "I am fine".
The first one is in formal mode. ๐Ÿฅธ
Don't use the second one to your boss or strangers ๐Ÿ˜.
The third one is the most common answer since most Indonesians are muslims.
Alhamdulillah is an Arabic expression for being grateful.
