tersedia

Tersedia is an Indonesian adjective meaning available or ready for use. It describes items, services, information, or resources that can be obtained, accessed, or utilized at the present moment. The term conveys not just existence, but accessibility and readiness to be used when needed.

The word is formed from the root sedia, meaning ready or prepared, with the prefix ter- that marks a state or condition. In usage, tersedia is typically predicative and can appear without a linking verb in Indonesian sentences.

Examples of usage include: "Produk ini tersedia di toko kami," meaning the product is available in our store; "Layanan pelanggan tersedia 24 jam," indicating round-the-clock service; "Dokter tersedia untuk konsultasi," indicating a doctor is available for consultation; "Data tersebut tersedia untuk diunduh," meaning the data is available for download; "Stok buku masih tersedia," indicating books are still in stock. To express unavailability, Indonesian commonly uses "tidak tersedia" or "habis."

Nuance-wise, tersedia emphasizes accessibility and immediacy more than mere existence. It can refer to physical inventory, digital resources, services, or personnel who can be accessed when needed, rather than something merely present somewhere.

In broader contexts, tersedia appears in retail, hospitality, information technology, and public services to communicate that a resource can be obtained, accessed, or used by users or customers.
