Sopan-santun seperti apa?

Sedari kecil saya menanggap bahasa daerah itu adalah bahasa yang penuh santun.

Apalagi setiap daerah mempunyai tingkatan bahasa yang cukup rumit untuk dipelajari, seperti bahasa Jawa yang mempunyai beberapa tingkatan.

Semakin tinggi tingkatan bahasa tingkat kesantunannya semakin tinggi juga, berarti orang yang menuturkan mempunyai kesantunan sama seperti apa yang dituturkannya.

Pernah suatu kali seorang wanita membawa kekasih prianya kerumah. Kebetulan si pria dapat mengucapkan bahasa Jawa halus dan sewaktu diperkenalkan kepada orang tua wanita ia mempergunakan itu untuk menarik simpati.

Itu diluar kebiasaannya.

Karena terpesona dari bahasa dan tutur kata si pria, malah sang orang tua yang lebih ngebet dari pada anaknya untuk menjalin hubungan yang lebih serius.

Seorang pemerkosa atau penjahatpun sering bersikap seperti itu!

Lagu Cucak Rowo nggak jauh dari tema ini.

Saya bukan bermaksud melecehkan Jawa, saya yakin di berbagai daerah nggak jauh beda. Hanya kebetulan hanya bahasa Jawa yang saya mengerti, karena saya seorang Jawa yang mencintai bahasa Indonesia.

Gmail is different. Here's what you need to know

First off, welcome. And thanks for agreeing to help us test Gmail. By now you probably know the key ways in which Gmail differs from traditional webmail services. Searching instead of filing. A free gigabyte of storage. Messages displayed in context as conversations.

So what else is new?

Gmail has many other special features that will become apparent as you use your account. You’ll find answers to most of your questions in our searchable help section, which includes a Getting Started guide. You'll find information there on such topics as:

How to use address auto-complete
Setting up filters for incoming mail
Using advanced search options
You may also have noticed some text ads or related links to the right of this message. They're placed there in the same way that ads are placed alongside Google search results and, through our AdSense program, on content pages across the web. The matching of ads to content in your Gmail messages is performed entirely by computers; never by people. Because the ads and links are matched to information that is of interest to you, we hope you'll find them relevant and useful.

You're one of the very first people to use Gmail. Your input will help determine how it evolves, so we encourage you to send your feedback, suggestions and questions to us. But mostly, we hope you'll enjoy experimenting with Google's approach to email.


Speedy Delivery,

The Gmail Team
