معنی
Doing the laundry.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'Laundry Kiloan' is a lifesaver for urbanites. It's cheap, efficient, and includes ironing (setrika). Washing in the river is still common in some rural areas and is a social event for women. Middle-class families usually have a helper (Mbak) who handles the 'cuci baju' and 'setrika'. Indonesians are experts at 'jemur baju' (sun-drying). A rainy day is a 'laundry emergency'.
Use 'Nyuci'
If you want to sound like a local in Jakarta, use 'nyuci' instead of 'cuci'.
Prefix Matters
Don't forget the 'me-' prefix in formal emails or school assignments.
