뜻
Preparing a cup of coffee.
문화적 배경
It is considered slightly impolite not to offer a guest a drink. 'Bikin kopi' is the most common way to fulfill this social obligation. Warung Kopi (Warkop) are small stalls where people gather to 'bikin kopi' and talk for hours. It's the heart of Indonesian grassroots democracy. The most traditional way to 'bikin kopi' in Indonesia is 'Tubruk' style—pouring boiling water directly onto fine grounds and sugar. In Indonesian offices, 'bikin kopi' is a valid excuse for a 10-minute social break with colleagues.
Use the suffix -in
If you want to sound really natural, say 'Bikinin kopi dong' when asking a close friend to make you one.
Avoid 'Masak'
Never say 'masak kopi' unless you are literally boiling the grounds in a pot of water (which is rare).
