Bedeutung
An educator who is kind or skilled.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Teachers are often called 'Pahlawan Tanpa Tanda Jasa' (Heroes Without Medals). Calling someone a 'Guru baik' is a way of acknowledging this heroic status. The term 'Guru' is sometimes jokingly abbreviated as 'Digugu lan Ditiru' (to be trusted and imitated). On Teacher's Day, students often post photos with their 'Guru baik' on Instagram using heart emojis. In universities, students might use 'Dosen baik' to refer to lecturers who are generous with grades or helpful with theses.
