Eid Holiday and Phonetics

Dear all,
I'd like to wish all KRK students and parents; Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Maaf Zahir dan Batin. If you are leaving Kulaijaya for the fest, remember to be careful and look after your own safety. Watch your diet too; too much rendang and lemang is not good for health.

Me, for one, will be off to Perak for the festival and will be back to school perhaps 2 days before the school re-opens. I'd like you to have a look at the phonetic symbols that I have uploaded here in the blog and see how you can write your own name in phonetics. We will learn basic phonetics after Eid holiday and hopefully you can use your dictionary more effectively after that. For a start, lets look at how I write 'CIKGU ZAKIAH' in phonetic below. Ever wondered how you can write your own name the same way?

Salam Aidilfitri
