Apabila sebuah jam dipotong begini...
When a clock is cut this way...

Setiap bahagiannya kita panggil setengah.
Each part we call a half.

Orang yang memotong jam itu, kita juga panggil setengah. Ertinya gila.
The person who cuts that clock we also call "half". It means crazy.

Apabila jam itu dipotong lagi...
When that clock is cut again...

Setiap bahagiannya dipanggil suku.
Each part is called a quarter.

Yang ini kita panggil tiga suku.
This one we call three quarters.

Yang ini juga tiga suku.
This is also three quarter.

Yang ini, tiga tiga suku.
This is three three quarter.

Akhir sekali, orang tiga suku lebih gila daripada orang setengah.
Finally, a three quarter guy is crazier than a half guy.

Selamat Belajar! :-)
