意味
Asking about someone's place of residence
文化的背景
Asking about residence is a way to find 'koneksi' (connections). People often ask this to see if you know someone they know or to recommend local food. In Jakarta, the answer often includes the 'kecamatan' (district) because the city is so large. People also use it to judge how much traffic you face. In Javanese-influenced areas, people might ask 'Aslinya mana?' (Where are you originally from?) even if they know where you live now, as ancestral roots are very important. In places like Bali, 'tinggal' is frequently used for temporary stays in villas or hotels, and locals are very used to asking this to tourists.
Drop the 'Kamu'
In casual speech, just say 'Tinggal di mana?'. It sounds much more natural and less like a textbook.
The Space Matters
Always write 'di mana' with a space. Writing 'dimana' is a common mistake that will make you look less professional.
