Enhanced Indonesian Spelling System

Enhanced Indonesian Spelling System

The Enhanced Indonesian Spelling System, also called the Perfected Spelling System (PSS) is the latest Indonesian spelling system which was released in 1972 to replace the Soewandi Spelling System (SSS). The aim was greater harmonization of the Indonesian and Malaysian alphabets.
Letters which have previously been included in the Soewandi Spelling as foreign loan letters, are officially used in the EYD Spelling.

Letters 'q' and 'x' are subjects.

still used in scientific -

The writing of di- and ke- can be distinguished from di and ke (prepositions), where di- and ke- is written together with the words that follow it, for example diambil, kehendak (is being taken, desire), while di and ke is written separately with the words that follow it, for example di rumah, ke pasar (at home, to the market). This is different to the former Soewandi Spelling, where both di- and di are written together with the words following it.
Repeated words, mostly used in plural form of words, have to be fully written with letters, so the use of number "2" as used in the Soewandi Spelling is no longer valid.
