Saat pelajaran berlangsung, seorang mahasiswa Indonesia
yang lagi kuliah di Belanda bernama “Ai” mengetahui bahwa orang yang duduk
di sebelahnya berasal dari Suriname. Sudah lama Ai penasaran dengan negara yang terletak di Amerika Selatan itu karena konon banyak warganya
yang berasal dari Indonesia (Jawa khususnya-tempat Ai dilahirkan).
Mulailah Ai menyapa orang di sebelahnya:
Ai : "Hi, my name is Ai, I come from Indonesia. Do you come from Suriname"?
Ai : "Hi, my name is Ai, I come from Indonesia. Do you come from Suriname"?
As : "Hi, my name is As"
Ai : "I heard that a lot of Surinam are initially come from Indonesia and speak Javanese".
"Do you speak Javanese?" (setengah memaksa, pdhl tuch Surinamese berwajah India
banget)
banget)
As : "Yes, you right, a lot
of Surinamese speak Javanese, but unfortunatelly I’m not part of
them"
them"
Ai : (walaupun udah nyangka
sebelumnya, tetap merasa kecewa :D)
As : As melanjutkan. "Our country is multi-etnics, there is
Africans, Indian, Ameindian,
Chinese and Javanese like you’ve said.
Chinese and Javanese like you’ve said.
Ai : "Oke... well, I thought you can speak javanese" (tetep maksa ;p). "So,
what language do
you speak in Suriname anyway?"
you speak in Suriname anyway?"
As : "Dutch"
"I heard a lot of Indonesian also speak Dutch. Is that right?"
"I heard a lot of Indonesian also speak Dutch. Is that right?"
Ai : "Nooo... "When we are independence, there is a time that
we reject all things about
Dutch and we nationalise everything, including our language". "So, I think only very old people can speak Dutch, but a lot of them is already past away now".

As : (ngebatin: what a long
story) "So, what language do you speak in Indonesia"
Ai : "Indonesia Language" (Yey!!!
merasa bangga punya bahasa sendiri :)
As : &^%%$@??? (rupanya As nggk punya
