意思
A high volume of sound
文化背景
In Central and East Java, speaking with a 'suara keras' is often seen as 'kasar' (unrefined). People prefer 'suara lembut' (soft voice) to maintain social harmony. The Batak people of North Sumatra are famous for their 'suara keras'. It is a cultural trait that signifies openness and strength, not necessarily anger. During the 'Adzan' (call to prayer), 'suara keras' is expected from the mosque's loudspeakers, but inside the mosque, one must avoid 'suara keras' to respect those praying. In Jakarta, 'suara keras' from modified motorcycle exhausts (knalpot brong) is a major source of social tension and is often regulated by police.
Use 'Sekali'
Add 'sekali' after 'keras' to sound more natural when saying 'very loud'.
Avoid 'Tinggi'
Never use 'tinggi' for volume; it will confuse people into thinking about musical pitch.
