معنی
Expressing that a price is very low.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Javanese culture, expressing that something is 'murah' is often followed by 'Alhamdulillah' (Praise be to God) as a sign of gratitude for the affordable sustenance. Jakartans love a good deal and will often use the slang 'murce' or 'murah banget' when discussing 'Promo' (promotions) on food delivery apps. In tourist areas, 'murah sekali' might be used by vendors themselves to attract tourists, though the 'tourist price' might still be higher than the 'local price.' Batam is a free-trade zone. People from other parts of Indonesia often go there specifically because electronics and perfumes are 'murah sekali' compared to the rest of the country.

Watch the 'an'
Never add '-an' to 'murah' (murahan) unless you want to call something 'tacky' or 'low quality.'
