User:DDG9912/Indonesian profanity
The colloquial form of the Indonesian language commonly employs a number of profanities, collectively are variously known in the language as umpatan, kata-kata kasar/kotor, caci maki, or sumpah serapah. These words are either from animal or sexual terms. Here is the list of notable Indonesian profanities.
Categories
[edit]There are several categorization on the Indonesian profanities. Anita Zuhrotul Jannah in 2021 divided these into five, according to their derivation:[1]
- from animal names;
- from objects;
- from body parts (including the genitalia);
- from activities (including sexual in nature); and
- from adjectives.
However, according to Susanto Pudjomartono:[2]
Animal terms
[edit]There are several animal terms also used as profanities, namely anjing "dog" (or the Javanese loan asu), babi "pig", bangsat "bedbug",[3] kampret "microbat" and less commonly monyet "monkey", buaya "crocodile" (specifically to refer a playboy), and bajing "squirrel".[4] Alongside the standard terms, anjing has many minced oaths, including anjir and anjay. The Javanese profanity jancok has the minced oath form jangkrik "cricket".[4] These words are used as expletives, most often to release disgust.
Adjectives
[edit]Terms tolol, goblok, bego, blo'on, and dungu are commonly used to call a stupid person (bodoh is the usual term for "stupid").[5] Gila "insane" is occasionally used in unpleasant situation.[1]
Sexual terms
[edit]In Indonesian, the penis is variously referred to as kontol (from Javanese),[6] peler (also used to refer to a scrotum),[7] titit, and burung "bird",[8] while the vagina is known as puki (cf. derived Malay pukimak).[9]
