Saturday morning. Dimas has invited you to the lake tomorrow, by train. Where is the station? Outside number 7 you ask the way: Sari, Rina, and Budi, just home from a night of jazz. Three neighbours, three answers.

Selamat pagi, Bu Sari! Permisi, stasiun di mana?
Good morning, Mrs Sari! Excuse me, where is the station?

Stasiunnya jauh. Jalan pertama di kiri, lalu lurus, lalu jalan kedua di kanan.
The station is far. First street on the left, then straight on, then the second street on the right.
Rina comes out of the café with a tray.
Rina
Tidak! Stasiunnya dekat. Ke kanan, lalu kiri di sudut.
No, no! The station is close. Right, then left at the corner.
Dekat? Kata Bu Sari, jauh.
Close? Mrs Sari says it's far.

Ibu Sari
Stasiun saya stasiun kereta. Jauh.
My station is the train station. It's far.
Rina
Stasiun saya terminal bus. Dekat.
And mine is the bus station. It's close.
Budi
Stasiun saya Stasiun Lama. Saya main di sana setiap akhir pekan.
And mine is the Old Station. I play there at weekends.
Saya perlu stasiun kereta. Jadi, ke kiri?
I need the train station. So, left?

Ibu Sari
Ke kiri. Besok jangan terlambat!
Left. And don't be late tomorrow!

All three are right. The town has a train station, a bus station, and the Old Station, which is now a jazz bar. Budi plays there at weekends. You take Ibu Sari's way, and around the corner stands the train station, small and old, with a big clock.
