for a long time, i thought jealous and envious is two similar, but different adjectives, and they both have slightly different meanings.i thought these two words can't easily replace each other.but well, the dictionary disagreed with me.ah, tapi tetep ya kata 'envious' kedengeran lebih baik, haha.ameliorasi-peyorasi kali ya?
