@Marafon
It's normal, in Indonesian, tenses are not very well defined. You can have a past translation and a present translation for the same sentence.

"Pourquoi demandes-tu" is not a good translation for "Mengapa kamu bertanya?", it should be "Pourquoi demandes-tu ça ?"

Merci pour l'explication !
