In this scene, the guy with black cloth speak Javanese, English, Maduranese. The guy with blue cloth speaks Javanese and English. And the girl speaks Javanese, Mandarin and English.
If added with Indonesian, they each can speak — at least — 4 languages. (Actually the guy with blue cloth is also good at Arabic).
Let her choose one of two options, either it pleases her i.e. going out for fun, riding a car, going cuisine, or something she does not really like, i.e. going to cheap drink stall, watching soccer, or even pranking her: from planned buying a bag or shoes to be buying rims ~ it will strengthen the relationship through hilarious communication.
“Lend me 100” joke is not expired yet. And in Coldplay concert a few days ago, Chris Martin still goes with that joke, in pantun recitation: 👇👇👇
giat belajar biar lulus apa kabar kota jakarta, boleh dong pinjam seratus
translation:
Study hard to graduate How are you the city of Jakarta? Will you lend me a hundred?
😂😂😂
Note:
the clue of pantun is at the edge words of the sentences with the similar sounds, which in Chris’s pantun applies for the word “lulus” and “seratus”.
At least Francesco Bagnaia, Maverick Vinales and Fabio Quartararo became hilarious with the joke “Pinjam Dulu Seratus” (= lend me 100 first).
Don’t know why it sounds funny and becomes hits among local people. There is no point on it but everybody laugh when hearing such a joke which can be inserted in any conversation with any topic.
Yes, we are used with such funny lines since a long time ago that we don’t even know who firstly initiate those lines. It became popular without explanation.
For instance :
Kamu tanya? = Are you asking?
Bodo amat = what a heck
Tapi bohong = but it’s a lie (“but what I have told you is a lie”)
Bercanda bercanda = kidding kidding
Aku ra popo (Javanese) = I’m okay (even though I had a bad luck, for example)
Mana tahan = How can I bear it?
All of the lines are expressed in cheerful moments only, during chat or conversation.
Say, somebody asks you a little help, you can say “pinjam dulu seratus”~
