Sudahkah anda makan atau belum?
Precise definition.
Sudah = Have
Anda = You
Makan = Eat [ eaten means " dimakan' in Malay. not grammatically correct to the target sentence; "di" is a preposition word, means to locate something, somewhere, or to indicate an activity acted by someone, something,correct order:have been eaten by what?]
so use `eat` instead.
Atau= Or [to provide a brige link between makan (verb) and belum (questions)].
Belum = yet

Example sentence:
Pak Amir, hari sudah malam. Sudahkah anda makan atau belum?
Mr. Emir, its already night. Have you eaten yet?
Reference:
2 days 8 hrs
Anda dah makan? Also, "Anda sudah makan?"
Depending on the material type. If it's in context to an academic text, I will use "Anda sudah makan?" but in other publication type, for example, in an article or a short report, "Anda dah makan?" also sounds courteous. My thoughts!
Example sentence:
Saya baru sahaja bersarapan pagi! Anda dah makan?
Something went wrong...
