<b>Note</b>: The word ''"tinggal"'' is a tricky word. If it is used alone (not conjugated), it means to live or to stay. However, if you conjugate it, it means to leave or to die. Many people got confused on this. Think of it in Indonesian culture perspective. Many indigenous Indonesian believe that when people die, their soul is here to stay.

=== Family Structure ===

* ''Ayah'' is synonymous with ''bapak'', which means ''father''. You can use it interchangably when it comes to mentioning about our father. Note that we call adult males as ''bapak'' for courtesy, but we never call them ''ayah''. The word ''ayah'' is exclusively for father-child relationship (either for mentioning father-by-blood or stepfather).

* ''Ibu'' means ''mother''. Here, we don't make any distinction like ''bapak'' / ''ayah''.

* Notice from the vocabulary list that the way Indonesian tells about siblings is gender-free. The word ''"kakak"'' is used to describe an older sibling (older brother or older sister). The word ''"adik"'' is used to describe a younger sibling (younger brother or younger sister). In order to further distinguish the gender, we must use the gender words: ''"laki-laki"'' for male or ''"perempuan"'' for female. Other gender-free words are made distinct similarly.
