Belumsesudah

Belumsesudah is a nonstandard form found in Indonesian-language online discourse. It is a concatenation of belum selesai, meaning "not yet finished." The term is not part of formal Indonesian grammar and is rarely found in official writing, but it appears in informal contexts such as social media captions, memes, fan forums, and branding where writers intentionally drop spaces for emphasis or stylistic purposes.

Usage and connotation: belumsesudah generally conveys that a task, project, or story remains ongoing or incomplete, sometimes with a humorous or ironic tone. Because the standard form is belum selesai, belumsesudah may be interpreted as a playful or emphatic variant rather than a new lexical item.

Linguistic notes: the abandonment of word boundaries is common in digital communication, particularly in Indonesian, where compound words are often closed or spaced inconsistently. Its recognition is limited outside informal circles, and some readers may misread it as a single coined word rather than a phrase.
