Yes. Explanation: "my dentist" is "dokter gigi saya" in Indonesian. My = saya. Dentist = dokter gigi. Indonesian language doesn't differentiate the way it refers to a man or a woman. For example, in English, we have "his dentist" and "her dentist." In Indonesian, we only have "dokter gigi dia." "Dia" could be a male or a female. Hope this helps! |

Yes Explanation: "My dentist" would be "dokter gigi-ku", or "dokter gigi saya" in Indonesian. "ku" in Indonesian is "my" in English, and "saya" is "I" (but when it is placed after the verb (s), it means "my"). These apply to both sexes. |
