意思
The physical act of closing a window
文化背景
The fear of 'Masuk Angin' (trapped wind) leads many to keep windows closed even in heat. Windows are kept closed primarily to block out 'polusi' (pollution) and noise. Windows are traditionally opened wide at dawn to let in 'udara segar' (fresh air) and closed strictly at 'maghrib' (sunset). In glass-walled offices, 'tutup jendela' almost exclusively refers to computer tasks.
Add '-nya'
Adding '-nya' (Tutup jendelanya) makes you sound much more natural and fluent.
Don't say 'Close'
Never use the English word 'close' even if you forget 'tutup'; Indonesians will think you mean 'clothes'.
