More Themed Writing

A few weeks ago I wrote about how I had my students compose lists of words they knew in Indonesian and English for me to study. Around the same time, I was noticing how many of them believe in ghosts. Well, I just found one vocab list that combines both of these:
die: mati
mortality: kematian
dead man: mayat
graveyard: kuburan
frog: katak
ghost: hantu
hell: neraka
paradise: surga
paranormal: dukun
god: dewa/tuhan
transitory: kefanaan
I'm mostly just impressed that she knew the word transitory.
