معنی

Said when walking through a crowd.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

The 'Right Hand Rule': Always use your right hand if you are making gestures while saying 'Permisi'. The left hand is traditionally considered 'unclean'. In Central Java, the bow is often deeper. You might hear 'Nyuwun sewu', which is the Javanese equivalent of 'Permisi', even when people are speaking Indonesian. In the fast-paced capital, 'Misi' is often said very quickly, sometimes multiple times in a row ('Misi, misi, misi') to create a rhythmic path through the crowd. Sundanese people are known for extreme politeness. They might add 'Punten' before 'Permisi' to be extra soft.

🎯

The 'Ya' Factor

Always add 'ya' at the end ('Permisi, lewat ya') to sound 100% more like a local. It softens the request.

⚠️

Don't Push

In Indonesia, physical pushing is very rude. Say the phrase first, wait a split second for people to acknowledge, then move.

💬

Eye Contact

You don't need to make direct eye contact with everyone you pass. A slight downward gaze is actually more polite.

Yes, 'Permisi' alone is very common and understood. Adding 'lewat' just makes it more specific that you are passing through.

Not at all! It's just informal. It's perfect for the street, public transport, or with people your own age.

You wouldn't say 'Permisi, lewat' from a car. Instead, you might use a short, polite honk of the horn (the 'social honk').

Usually, with close friends, you can just nudge them or say 'Misi, dong'.

At a formal event, use 'Numpang lewat' or 'Permisi, Bapak/Ibu' with a deeper bow.
