There are also several words in Bahasa Indonesia for rice. The Life of Rice is as follows:
padi (rice plant)
gabah (rice still in husk)
beras (unhusked, uncooked rice)
nasi (cooked rice).
Here is a picture of beras hitam (black rice) and beras merah (red/brown rice). Much more common, of course, is beras putih (white rice).

Bahasa Indonesia WOD: Beras/Nasi = uncooked rice/cooked rice

(I like to eat cooked black rice and cooked red rice, but I don't like to eat uncooked black rice and uncooked red rice).
