Jamban

"Jamban" is more like a made-up word in Malay.
It means "Toilet".

The "Jam" in it is another word that means clock.
This has been used to make jokes.
(Like Dad Jokes)
(Though the word-play is similar to Knock-Knock Jokes)

Sial

Commonly used as a curse-word.
It's a word from SEA (South-East Asia).
Somehow, it could mean "bad luck" or something along the lines of "hardship".

But commonly used like when you say "Shit!".
(But it doesn't mean "Poo")

It may also be used to address someone rudely.
(Which you could translate to "Shithead")

Other variants of this are:

-"Sialan" (Another way to say "Sial")
-"Be(r)sialan" (Meaning: Being a shit or shithead)
To exclaim or simply curse, you say: Sial!

To address someone rudely, you say: Hey, Sial.

In Sabah, it is the other way to say "Boleh" in Malay.

It is an affirmative word meaning:
