Sa-kai : : (saa-kye)
adjective
1. to fill with great surprise or sudden wonder; astonish upon seeing something new
2. to get overly excited over it
3. if you still can’t imagine what’s the meaning of sakai, have you ever watch the movie The Gods Must Be Crazy Before? If you have, that is another level of sakai-ness.
A few days ago drumsticks, bongkersz and me tried a karaoke session on the NET! – through Skype. I got sakai-ed. Why?
1. this is the first time I know what the hell is skype
2. skype is so farking awesome
3. now the whole family can have karaoke session with my sis in UPM
Aren’t we so sakai?
I managed to record some of it but then I can only record my voice and can’t hear bongkersz and drumsticks at all but I can hear my mom and my cat being busy in the kitchen.
Bear with the broken chinese

Seems your whole family like to Karaoke so much. Singing thru skype really sakai me…

hehe…yea…skype is really cool! i used to use that to voice chat all the time!
=p

Too bad, I never use it
October 30, 2007 at 5:59 pm
oi.. sakai in one of the indigenous tribe lah.. related to semang i think..
sakai is used when you want to insult/joke about your friend being very ‘ulu’ ‘kampungan’ ‘katak bawah tempurung’ hehehehehe
October 30, 2007 at 6:19 pm
be vely-vely careful, when you use this term Sakai!… it so infamy… Should not be use to any person in Semenanjung Malaysia especially the indigenous tribe such semai and sinoi plus some malay too … you can lash, mah!
By the way, I’m a sakai too something… find it hard to adjusts myself to blog… plus never use Skype before.. huhuh
October 30, 2007 at 6:22 pm
sorry… it should written as “you can get lash, mah!
October 30, 2007 at 6:41 pm
keeyit : You should try. It’s fun. Trust me. Especially when your friends or you yourself can’t hit the note. LOL
Sean : Sakai is taken from I don’t know what dialect but here in Sarawak it is understood that if you say a person is sakai, that person is so like what I have describe la.
Sean, you sakai is it?
Lynnwei : Yeah, it’s cool eh. I got sakai-ed
MonkeyWong : You should so that you can reduce the level of sakai-ness when your friends talk about it.
bongkersz : Thanks for helping me up with the traslations. To think of it, Malaysia is a SakaiNation! – Sakai-nated about the space thingy. LOL
Anouhea Audiya : I know. But it’s the same with the word Lakhia which is commonly used here. Literally it does means a bad thing but still people use that to call the bumis here in Sarawak. We don’t get offended but if it’s too provoking and used wrongly of course the fella will get some bashing. So, sakai!

I love Skype when it comes to voice chat. Just love it la…
About sakai the word sounds funny and means funny to me. But most of the time, I’ll just use it to express how excited I am towards something unusual or unfamiliar or jakun with by which I am so be-lalak with. Hahah.. Another word, be-lalak not menyalak eh. Muahahaha…!
Oh, that is the uniqueness of Sarawak. How I miss Sarawak. Sigh.
October 30, 2007 at 6:49 pm
sakai not a dialect or language.. is a tribe name
October 30, 2007 at 6:52 pm
sakai, keling, lakhia, cinapek, lepeh.. all these can be derogatory sometimes…
well, if you mean no harm should be ok.. hehe.. but i personaly seldom use la
October 30, 2007 at 7:07 pm
