WHAT DOES SASTERA MEAN IN MALAY?

Literature

Literature refers to artwork delivered through language. In terms of the letter, the literary word means "a collection of beautiful and well-written books." In a broader sense, literature can be meant for all the wonderful pronunciation, whether it is written or not. Literature on its outward form exists in human society through the form of writing and also in oral form. In everyday life, both forms of literature are not separate from us. For example, we will hear music that contains lyrics of songs that are literary. And we ourselves will use a variety of idiosyncrasies and proverbs that are literally literary. In conclusion, literature is part of human culture. It is the human self expression and also the human aesthetic manifestation of the language spoken by themselves.
