Past and Future

To talk about past and future months, the name of the month is followed by yang lalu (last) and yang akan datang (next). The useful phrase yang lalu means literally “what has gone / passed by” but it can be better translated “…ago”.

bulan Juni yang lalu
last June

tiga hari yang lalu
three days ago

bulan November yang akan datang
next November

If you are talking about “next …. ” (the month or week after the current one) without citing its name, you can also say:

bulan yang akan datang
next month

bulan depan
next month

minggu yang akan datang
next week

minggu depan
next week

bulan yang lalu
last month
