Kepala keluarga

Head of family

The person who leads the household

🌍

문화적 배경

The 'Kartu Keluarga' (KK) is a vital document. You cannot get a passport, get married, or buy a house without being listed on a KK under a 'Kepala keluarga'. In Javanese culture, the 'Kepala keluarga' is expected to be 'ayom' and 'ayem' (providing protection and peace). Despite being matrilineal, the 'Mamak' (uncle) often shares the 'Kepala keluarga' responsibilities regarding land and heritage. The rise of 'Perempuan Kepala Keluarga' (PEKKA) is a significant social movement supporting widows and single mothers.

No, that would be a joke! It's only for humans.

Indonesian uses repetition: 'Kepala-kepala keluarga'.

Yes, it is formal but very common in neutral daily speech.
