entah entah ........ sin sin sin sin

i am called upon to write bout budaya entah entah which so common among Malaysians especially the Malay. this is not the entah that u say when u dont know the answer to someone's question. its not a verb, neither a noun. its usually uttered before someone before he or she made an assumption, a blind speculation. let me include a situation so well-adapted in our community::

macik J:: eh M, L, si budak S tu selalu keluar malam..ada orang jemput naik kereta. kereta besar pulak tu.

macik M::umph, si S tu mmg liar.entah-entah keluar gi disko, takpun gi tido umah jantan mana ntah. hah, yang jemput tu silap-silap si boyfriend nye.

macik L:: ye ke? ish, bdak2 zaman skrg ni xtaw batas pergaulan.. hish, yang mak bapak nye pon xreti nak jaga anak-anak..

see. they know nothing but they talk much. and when this kind of people are smart enough to stir a speculation, they of course are efficient enough to spread. and when the stories spread, the "entah-entah" phrase seems to vanish in the air. as it gone, the word "aku dengar" will come handy. then, the next phrase "si polan-polan kata" comes to join making a triplet sinful terms.
the story will sound like this>>>

di pasar, mesyuarat macik diadakan apabila terserempak

macik J:: eh M, L, ni nak bagi tau,si budak S tu selalu keluar malam..ada orang jemput naik kereta. tiap hari tu, engkau!

macik M::umph, si S tu mmg liar.entah-entah keluar gi disko, takpun gi tido umah jantan mana ntah. hah, yang jemput tu silap-silap si boyfriend nye. 

macik L:: ye ke? ish,  zaman skrg ni budak-budak xtaw batas pergaulan..hish, yang mak bapak nye pon xreti nak jaga anak-anak..(yg ko  dok caye si macik M tu ko ingat bagus sgt la batas korang tu yek..n korg plak xreti jaga mulut)

di warung, L dan C terserempak..

macik L:: eh, C...ak dengar kan si budak S tu liar sangat orangnya.aku bgtaw ni bukanlah nak mengumpat tp ye lar, ak tgk anak ko si T tu rapat dengan S , jadi aku rasa baik la ko kawal sket anak ko tu supaya jangan rapat sangat dengan si S.

macik C:: eh ye ke, knape  plak?

macik L:: ak dengar dia slalu kluar malam. ade laki boyfriend nye jemput naik kereta (padahal diorg pon tak taw yg jemput tu lelaki ke pompuan..macik M la ni yg suggest) .. ish, ak dgr liar sungguh bdaknya. gi kluar disko pastu ape orang putih kata clubbing2? ahh, elok la kalau anak ko tu tak kawan ngan si S

di rumah macik C

macik C:: eh T, macik L tadi ade jmpe mak pastu dia pon crite la pasl kawan  ko si S tu yang slalu kluar malam. slalu ade laki jmput dia kat depan umah tu ha. sih, mak tkut ko trikut je dengan perangai si S

T: eh, mak.. mana ade.. S tu baik budaknya. yang jemput dia malam-malam tu kawan kami, J . pompuan bukannya laki. knape plak macik L kate laki. dia nampak ke?diorg, S ngan J kerja kat kilang dekat sini tuh. kerja halal..tp bulan ni diorg kata diorg dppt shift malam. tu la, diorg kluar malam. bulan lepas diorg dpt shift pagi, so takde la kluar-kluar malam ni.. ish, fitnah semua tu mak. 

(macik C, wats yr respond??ahaha ^O*)

everyone has mouth to speak. but dont forget that we have brain to think before we speak. stop la the entah-entah or else,the story of entah-entah->aku dengar->si polan-polan kata will countinue to poison our mind until someone who know the truth or who are rational enough to ask the tuan punya badan speak to unveil the truth. so readers!lets play our role to stop the entah-entah culture. :)
