Bahasa Indonesia

Indonesian language

The national language of Indonesia

🌍

문화적 배경

Bahasa Indonesia is a source of great pride. It is seen as the 'unifier' of the nation's 17,000 islands. Using the language correctly involves using titles like Bapak/Ibu. Addressing a teacher or boss by their first name is considered very rude. In the capital, Jakarta, the language is mixed with slang and English, creating a 'cool' urban dialect known as Bahasa Gaul. Many formal and daily expressions in Bahasa Indonesia are derived from Arabic, reflecting the country's Muslim majority.
