معنی
Viewing a motion picture
زمینه فرهنگی
For young people in cities, 'nonton' is often just an excuse to spend 4 hours in a mall with air conditioning. The tradition of 'Layar Tancap' (outdoor cinema) still exists during weddings or independence day celebrations. Indonesia has a massive horror film industry. Watching horror movies is a common group bonding activity. It is common for people to bring jackets to the cinema because Indonesian 'bioskop' are notoriously freezing.
Drop the 'Me-'
If you want to sound like a local, never use 'menonton' in a coffee shop. Just say 'nonton'.
Avoid 'Lihat'
Using 'lihat' for a movie makes you sound like a robot or a very literal translator.
