معنی
A room for receiving guests.
زمینه فرهنگی
In traditional Javanese homes, the 'ruang tamu' is often separated from the rest of the house by a wooden partition called a 'gebyok'. In small Jakarta apartments, the 'ruang tamu' often doubles as a dining area, but people still try to keep it tidy for unexpected visitors. In a 'Rumah Gadang', the entire front area is a communal 'ruang tamu' where different families living in the house receive their guests. Balinese homes are compounds. The 'ruang tamu' might be a separate open-air pavilion called a 'Bale'.
Take off your shoes
Always check if there are shoes at the door before entering a 'ruang tamu'. Most Indonesian homes require you to go barefoot inside.
The Drink Rule
If you are in a 'ruang tamu' as a guest, wait for the host to say 'Silakan diminum' (Please drink) before taking your first sip.
