dijahit

Dijahit is a verb form used in Indonesian and Malay meaning “to be sewn” or “to have been sewn.” It is the passive voice form of the root jahit, which means to sew. The di- prefix indicates that the action is performed on the subject by an unspecified agent, such as a tailor or a sewing machine. In everyday language, dijahit describes clothing or fabric that has been sewn or altered.

Dijahit can function as an adjective when used with a noun, describing the state of the material, as in phrases like “kemeja dijahit rapi” (a neatly sewn shirt) or “baju itu sudah dijahit” (that garment has been sewn). It also appears in predicate phrases with time markers such as sudah, sedang, or akan, for example, “Baju itu sudah dijahit” or “Paket pakaian sedang dijahit.”

The term is common in contexts related to fashion, tailoring, garment production, and laundry. Related words include jahit (to sew), menjahit (to sew, active voice), penjahit (a tailor), and jahitan (a seam or stitch). Dijahit is used in both Indonesian and Malay with essentially the same meaning, though regional usage can affect nuance or frequency.
