Thank you for your responses to my last question.

I saw in a video on YouTube (by Langfocus) that in Indonesian, the word “Allah” is used for God. Could a foreigner use the word to refer to God? Is it respectful to?

Furthermore, what do the words Tuhan and dewa mean?

Can any of these words be used to refer to ‘a god’?

Thank you for any comments! once again!

EDIT: And is it awkward to use the word “haram” to talk about something illegal by law or is it solely used in religious/moral sense?
