From the video below can't find any dialek that uses the baku pronunciation besides Medan dialek, mostly uses the southern peninsular slang. So where actually the sebutan baku came from? From utara Malaysia? hmm.gif

Serious answer, DBP.

They randomly decide whats correct and wrong. Heck, they can even invent new words that nobody heard of.

Contrary to other language where words are formed by the community first and when there is sufficient universal acceptance then it is added to the dictionary.

When Anwar the education minister, he was infatuated with Sukma Dermawan and wanted all Malaysians to speak like him.

At least they provide access to PRPM for free. Too bad they're now outdated. Also they never take action on those Google translated subtitles. If I read, my brain can damage one.

Possibly because DBP was established in 1956. But then Kedah people got their baku slang from where? Or they originally speak a different dialek?

Johor-Riau, no?

On second thought, maybe it's a good continuation of the linguistic effort after EYD?

Actually what you expect the translation for these things you mentioned?

Telephone - suara jauh?
Pickup - pungut?
Shift - giliran?
bank - gudang duit?

Another wiki source mentioned this

QUOTE
According to Indonesian law, the Indonesian language was proclaimed as the unifying language during the Youth Pledge on 28 October 1928 and developed further to accommodate the dynamics of Indonesian civilisation. As mentioned previously, the language was based on Riau Malay, though linguists note that this is not the local dialect of Riau, but the Malaccan dialect that was used in the Riau court. Since its conception in 1928 and its official recognition in the 1945 Constitution, the Indonesian language has been loaded with a nationalist political agenda to unify Indonesia (former Dutch East Indies). This status has made it relatively open to accommodate influences from other Indonesian ethnic languages, most notably Javanese as the majority ethnic group, and Dutch as the previous coloniser. Compared to the indigenous dialects of Malay spoken in Sumatra and Malay peninsula or the normative Malaysian standard, the Indonesian language differs profoundly by a large amount of Javanese loanwords incorporated into its already-rich vocabulary. As a result, Indonesian has more extensive sources of loanwords, compared to Malaysian Malay. It is sometimes said that the Indonesian language is an artificial language, meaning that it was designed by academics rather than evolving naturally as most common languages have, in order to accommodate the political purpose of establishing an official and unifying language of Indonesia. By borrowing heavily from numerous other languages, it expresses a natural linguistic evolution; in fact, it is as natural as the next language, as demonstrated in its exceptional capacity for absorbing foreign vocabulary.


So perhaps that's the one? It's Johor-Riau, but not local everyday Riau dialect but of the royal court. Which explains its use in the classical Malay films? hmm.gif

No idea.

I'm just as intrigued as you are.

Initially, I thought that sebutan baku is the continuation of EYD in making Malay language phonetically representative/compatible for easier adoption & standardization. But since you raised its use in the classical Malay films, it doesn't appear to be the case.

Baku = Standard
Bahasa Melayu Baku means Standardised Malay Language. Also can call Bahasa Melayu Piawai.

Bahasa Melayu Piawai is Bahasa Melayu spoken in Riau, Indonesia as agreed upon by Majlis Bahasa Melayu Brunei, Indonesia & Malaysia (MABBIM).

And since Johor-Riau is kinda like the successor for Melaka, and Riau is part of Indonesia, they find it to be more palatable & acceptable to refer to it as Johor-Riau dialect for the purpose of nationalistic pride.

Maybe.

Merely a conjecture..

Maybe bahasa baku slang spoken by Tun Ali and his kin became trendy during the Malacca sultanate period?

Highly doubt Parameswara or Tun Perak communicates in bahasa baku

Tun Ali is Mamak if I'm not mistaken. So maybe yes.

Parameswara was from Palembang, could be he use the current palembang dialek, unless really royals sounded different compared to the rakyat. hmm.gif

If only the Malay last time write history properly. *sighs*

If not, other ethnics will feel as if they kena jajah and Indonesa wouldn't be formed. Although Javanese the most numerous, Malays are more widely spread and the language is more widely spoken. From Sumatera until Sulawesi, all can speak Malay or a dialect of it. They also thought of the possibility of inviting semenanjung to join.

Most will not happy if that is the choice, javanese are the biggest but limited to one island, even in that small java island also got many suku. So melayu was adopted as it is the lingua franca in malay archipelagos.

Indonesia retains Sumatra Malay dialect as her national language due to inheritance from historical Sriwijaya had already established Malay dialect as the official "trading language" for centuries along the straits and nusantara, later Malacca sultanate continuing the legacy so did the Majapahit up until colonization by Portuguese, Dutch and Anglo.... Thus Indonesia could not used javanese dialect national language due to unpopularity outside of jawa.
