معنی
Ignorant people talk the most
زمینه فرهنگی
Humility (rendah hati) is a highly prized virtue. This proverb serves as a social warning against 'sombong' (arrogance). In Javanese culture, the concept of 'sepi ing pamrih, rame ing gawe' (quiet in selfish motives, busy in work) is the ideal. 'Tong kosong' is the exact opposite of this ideal. In the fast-paced life of Jakarta, 'tong kosong' is often used to describe 'social climbers' or people who use big words to sound sophisticated in cafes. Minangkabau culture values eloquence ('pandai bersilat lidah'), but it must be backed by logic and tradition. A 'tong kosong' is seen as someone who has lost their cultural grounding.
Use with 'Seperti'
If you're unsure how to use it in a sentence, just say 'Dia SEPERTI tong kosong nyaring bunyinya.' It's the safest way.
Don't be too direct
Calling someone this to their face is a strong insult. Use it to describe someone to a third party instead.
