Asking about the identity of a person
Contexto cultural
Asking 'Siapa itu?' is the first step in the 'kenalan' process, which is vital for social harmony. In Javanese culture, you might add honorifics like 'Sinten niku?' to show extreme respect. The usage is identical, but the pronunciation might vary slightly. They might use 'Siapo itu?' with a distinct regional accent.
Remember the S
Siapa starts with S for 'Someone'.
Politeness
If you are unsure, adding 'Maaf' (sorry) before 'Siapa itu?' makes it much more polite.
