Hi there, I am Yeni, Bataks Tribe from Indonesia, a country in Southeast
Asia. Yesterday I found out that there was a mistake in translating the word
"Batak" from Indonesian language to English language. As I tried to
translate the word OPERA BATAK from Indonesian Language to English language,
the translation is : OPERA HOBO. I dont know the word "hobo" means. Cause
Batak is a tribe in Indonesia. (In English language Batak should mean Bataks
or Batak Tribe.)
Then I translate the english word "hobo" to Indonesian language. Then I
found out the word hobo means : batak, gelandangan, petualang, orang miskin
yg berkelana, orang jembel. Or in other words, the meaning of hobo are :batak
:
gelandangan : bum, tramp,
vagrant, vagabond, hobo, bummer, loiterer, nomad, homeless drifter, tourist
petualang : adventurer,
wanderer, tramp, hobo, gadder, gadabout
orang miskin yg berkelana :
*poor
people who **wander*
orang jembel : mendicant,
beggar, drifter, poor, hobo
Btw Indonesia has so many tribes such as batak, jawa, sunda, padang etc.
And it's so rude to translate the word "batak" to the word "hobo". Coz, here
in Indonesia, if you say the word "Batak",
it means the Batak Tribe or Bataks. We never use the word "Batak" to
indicate the hobo thing.
So Batak doesnt mean :* g*elandangan, petualang, orang miskin yg berkelana
or orang jembel aka hobo. Batak means Bataks or the Bataks tribe.
Well we, the Batak Tribe from Indonesia hope your team can fix it asap,
cause it's really humiliating and harassing the Batak tribe around the
planet.
Thankyou very much for your kind attention and cooperation.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Regards,
