nihongo vs eigo vs indoneshiago

"student" wa nihongo de nan desu ka?
"student" wa nihongo de "gakusee" desu.

"gakusee" wa indoneshiago de nan desu ka?
"gakusee" wa indoneshiago de "murid" desu.

"murid" wa eigo de nan desu ka?
"murid" wa eigo de "student" desu.

which one is the easiest? u decide...

the other survival topic learnt today was numbers. i have this little believe that one of the important things to learn when we study foreign language is numbers. because no money no survive, and money is about numbers. besides the easy 0-9 that we must remember, the concept about japanese millions are based on tenth thousand. for example:
10 = juu
100 = hyaku
1,000 = sen
10,000 = ichi-man
100,000 = juu-man
1,000,000 = hyaku-man
10,000,000 = is-sen-man

pretty straight forward rite? however, there are special cases for:
300 = san-byaku
600 = rop-pyaku
800 = hap-pyaku
3,000 = san-zen
8,000 = has-sen

wakarimashita ka?

btw, sumimasen, anata no denwa bangoo wa nan-ban desu ka? heya bangoo wa nan-ban desu ka? oh, watashi no denwa bangoo wa: san ni go desu. heya bangoo wa: esu dii san no san zero kyuu desu. ah, sou desu ka....doomo arigatou.
