Tugasmu

Tugasmu is an Indonesian phrase that means “your task” or “your duty.” It is formed from the noun tugas, meaning task, assignment, or duty, combined with the second-person possessive pronoun mu, meaning your. In standard spelling, mu attaches to the noun and is written as a single word: tugasmu. The phrase is commonly used in informal speech and writing.

Grammatically, tugasmu is a noun phrase that can function as subject, object, or complement within a sentence, depending on context. It often appears in imperatives or descriptions of responsibilities. Example sentences include: Tugasmu adalah menyelesaikan laporan ini (Your task is to finish this report); Tugasmu belum selesai (Your task is not finished); Saya menilai tugasmu (I am evaluating your assignment). The tone tends to be casual, though it remains correct in everyday communication.

Usage and register vary by context. Tugasmu is typical in family, schools, workplaces, and social media where informal language is common. For formal situations, Indonesian speakers typically use the formal counterpart Anda: Tugas Anda. In addition, speakers may use other possessive forms such as tugasku (my task), tugasnya (his/her/its task), or tugas kita (our task) to convey different owners or groupings.
