“Kadangkala susah untuk berbicara karena gak ada padanan kata2 bhs. Inggris” dan itulah kenapa saat kita menerjemahkan twit2 dari penutur bhs. Korea, Jepang, dll hasilnya terkesan “aneh”, karena mereka menatakan bhs. mereka tanpa mempertimbangkan kata dan konsep bhs. Inggris
Biasanya orang yang nyampurin inggris x bahasa Indo itu mmg karena kebiasaan (dari lahir konsumsinya media inggris) gak biar “keliatan pinter”, orang-orang yang pengen keliatan pinter ya pake bahasa Indonesia baku nan tertata rapih

Btw postingan ini tidak mengejek kelompok yang kedua, semua orang berhak untuk kelihatan pinter, memang budaya kita aja yang melihat upaya lebih sebagai suatu bentuk rasa tinggi hati (padahal gak juga). Aku sendiri suka pake kata “pengejawantahan” di tulisan-tulisan aku.

Been running around Jakarta lately and can’t help but notice the slightly higher noticeability of the Malay accent and Singlish in the muffled backsound of the crowd #WatMean

when mount tambora in indonesia erupted in 1815, the volcano killed all 10,000 tambora people and wiped out their culture entirely. their extinct language was uniquely non-austronesian & we only know about it from a 48-word vocabulary list collected by colonial officials in 1814

Pointing out nouns like this isn’t impressive tbh, what’s interesting is that even basic Bahasa Melayu/Indonesia conjugations, particles, basic words etc are Sanskrit derived. For example: serta, tetapi, karena, kendati, sama, sang, and so on.
Don't tell them many Malay words came from Hindu Sanskrit...

Zoetmulder pointed how Sanskrit changed Malay so much that it got more indianized than other Southeast Asian languages that are spoken by people who still practice Indic religions. So, even if we got Arabized later, we still have a strong Indic foundation in our language.

I like how the Moravian Church is only .3% Czech today. If you'd only read about Hussitism in a historical context you wouldn't expect it to be majority Tanzanian.

Many 3rd worlders listen to western music on the radio and use Facebook on their android phones, indirectly contributing to the western entertainment and tech industry, detached 1st worlder like this guy thinks he’s better than them cause he’s an Evolian ascetic or whatever.
The entire ideology behind this image is "how dare they not let you consume entertainment media from imperialist countries actively attempting to destroy yours"

Cross On A Lotus: While primarily a Buddhist site, Dunhuang caves contain a handful of fascinating depictions of Nestorian Christianity. "Cross on a Lotus" is a recurring motif that syncretizes the Christian symbol rising from the Buddhist flower of purity. #Christmas #Buddhism

Sherlock Of The Desert: Sir Aurel Stein and the Lost Library of Dunhuang -🧵 "George and Catherine Macartney knew what drove their stocky middle-aged visitor to embark on his dangerous journey. It was not a thirst for adventures, although there would be plenty of those. #History

everyone’s talking about Mormons not getting counted as Christians anymore but Messianic Jews getting bumped into Judaism is a way funnier sneak
The US Military just made a bunch of changes to their list of Faith Codes. The gist is that the old list used to include every single type of Baptist in a separate entry. Now, they are all under a single umbrella, "Christian - Baptist" Another interesting choice is that LDS are not listed as Christians.
