意思
A short exclamation of approval
文化背景
Indonesians value 'Face' (Muka). Giving a compliment like 'Bagus' is a way to show respect and maintain a positive atmosphere. In Javanese culture, 'Bagus' (or 'Saé' in High Javanese) is used with a very soft tone to show humility and politeness. On Indonesian Instagram or TikTok, 'Bagus' is often replaced by 'Mantap' or 'Mantul' to show high energy. In meetings, 'Bagus' is used to acknowledge a point before moving to the next one, acting as a verbal 'I hear you and I agree.'
The Thumbs Up Rule
If you can give it a physical thumbs up, you can probably say 'Bagus!'
Avoid 'Bagus Pagi'
Never use Bagus for greetings. Stick to 'Selamat'.
