		The Javanese dialect spoken in Yogyakarta (Jogja) or Surakarta (Solo) in central Java is considered the standard Javanese because they were, historically speaking, the capital cities of the Javanese culture.

		In other words, Javanese is known for having two "status styles" of expression: regular (shown in dictionaries as N for Ngoko) and respect (K for Krama, pronounced "kromo").

		Javanese elites in the New Order perceive and represent themselves as inheritors of a ``high'' Javanese cultural tradition, supporting an essentialized, originary picture of a courtly Javanese past much like that to which scholarly and journalistic observers appeal in accounts of the ``neotraditional'' in national politics.

		After suitable deliberation, participants recommended that Javanese language (bahasa) and tradition (budaya) be placed under the custodial aegis of the state--specifically, the Department of Education and Culture--which was authorized to establish (so, standardize) a version of Javanese to be taught in state schools.

		While an effective and harmonious interethnic communication largely depends on the speakers' willingness to accommodate their language and societal norms to those of their interlocutors, symmetrical accommodation rarely occurs when the interacting parties differ in power and needs for social approval.

		The portrayal of Javanese language and culture as being more refined, the Javanese economic success in the area, as well as the social and political situation which seems to favor the Javanese may have contributed to this imbalance of power.

	Caraka 37-38: Special report: Javanese on the internet
		Now as it happens Javanese is not a language that Javanese speakers are used to reading, and undoubtedly the number of writers is smaller still than that of readers.
		This is especially so in the Javanese e-groups with their daily multidirectional flow of messages, and also on a few message boards and guestbooks which are publicly accessible and used as forums for written dialogue.
		The basic pleasure of communicating with like-minded others in the Javanese language, the language of home, family, and childhood, is undoubtedly the main rationale for taking part in e-groups in Javanese and for the use of Javanese varieties on message boards.

		In this respect it is striking that the Portuguese were the first to make a sharp distinction between Malays and Javanese (Jaos in Portugese), whereas the Arabs before that (and the Malays in their wake) called all the inhabitants of the Archipelago ‘Orang Jawi’, making no distinction between the Malays and the Javanese.

		Bahasa Indonesia or the Indonesian language is the official language of Indonesia.
		This language can be regarded very modern in certain sense: officially it came into being after the Second World War as the official language of the newly declared Republic of Indonesia.
		This language is a dynamic language that is constantly absorbing new loanwords, not only from the native (Austronesian) tongues spoken in the realm of the Republic of Indonesia, such as Javanese, but also from foreign tongues such as Sanskrit, Arabic, Chinese languages (especially Hokkien), Portuguese, Dutch and English.

		Berman's understanding of Javanese language and culture is based on her years of living and working in Yogyakarta, with ordinary families as well as within the confines of the palace.
		The focus of her study identifies the hierarchical power relations between different social levels in Javanese society, as well as between men and women.
		The lesson is that while what is defined as Javanese culture and its so-called refinement remains intact, there is little hope for the social or political emancipation of ordinary Javanese (and hence Indonesian) people.
