Call "Daeng" in Culture Luwu / Palopo

Sultan Hasanuddin picture.

Call "Daeng" was sticking to the surface when one member of the committee Century, Ruhut Sitompul, calling the former vice president Jusuf Kalla to call "Daeng" in one session that presents Jusuf Kalla. Ruhut Sitompul action is torn widely criticized by another committee member who is also from South Sulawesi. Then if Ruhut wrong in using the nickname "Daeng"? For explanations please refer to the writings bugishy.
Call "Daeng" is little known is identical to the Bugis-Makassar culture. In fact, in South Sulawesi, calls "Daeng" used on at least two cultures with different meanings and significance. In the Bugis-Makassar culture, calls "Daeng" has the meaning as it has been adopted by many people (read article bugishy), but the culture of people Luwu / Palopo, calls "Daeng" has several meanings that can not say the same.
Demographic system in Indonesia does not recognize the existence of ethnic / cultural Luwu, so that the broad community that consists of 21 districts are classified as ethnic Bugis or Toraja, whereas they have culture and customs of its own - although there are similarities - is different from the Bugis, more -more Toraja.
In Luwu society, call "Daeng" at least has 3 meanings:
1. "Daeng" (without the name of the title) as respectfully call (honorofik) for older siblings, both male and female.
2. "Daeng" (without the name of the title) as a general call that very polite to older people (male or female). Function calls "Daeng" here applies to all walks of life and social stratification, whether they are married or not.
3. "Daeng" (the name of the title) as a call or a nickname given to someone who has been married. Call "Daeng" which accompanied the name of this title is not determined, but given by another person or community in accordance with nature or one's innate. For example, a person nicknamed "Daeng Pacidda" because it is always quick in the act (pacidda = act quickly). Someone nicknamed "Daeng Madduppa" because every prediction / word is always right and there (madduppa = happen). Someone nicknamed "Daeng Pabeta" because it is always profit / win in the competition (pabeta = profit / win).
Which still survive till now only points (1) and (2), while point (3) slowly no longer in use by the new generation. Nickname-nickname like that still I have encountered in my own parents and those segenerasinya, but no longer carried by the children or the next generation (although there are still a handful of families who still maintain it).
So if someone calls me with the greeting "Daeng" then the meaning greeting is included in point (2) above. Unfortunately, "Daeng" with the name of the title has not passed to my generation, even though my parents still use them. If it is used, the possibility of my nickname would be "Daeng Pa'blog" (pa'blog = people who like blogging).

Definition of Culture

Culture is closely connected to the community. Melville J. Herskovits and Bronislaw Malinowski argued that everything contained in this society is determined by culture which is owned by the community itself. The term for it is the opinion of the Cultural-Determinism.

Herskovits view culture as something handed down from one generation to another, who then referred to as superorganic. According to Andreas Eppink, cultures containing whole notion of social values​​, social norms, knowledge and overall social structures, religious, etc., again all the extra intellectual and artistic statement that characterizes a society.

According to Edward Burnett Tylor, culture is a complex whole, which it contains knowledge, belief, art, morals, laws, customs, and other skills gained a person as a member of the community.

According Selo Soemardjan and Soelaiman Soemardi, culture is the means of work, taste, and the copyright community.

From the various definitions, we can obtain an understanding of culture is something that will affect the level of knowledge and cover the system of ideas or the ideas contained in the human mind, so that in everyday life, the culture is abstract. While the embodiment of culture are the objects created by humans as being a civilized form of behavior and things that are tangible, such as behavioral patterns, language, equipment life, social organization, religion, art, etc., which all intended to help sustain the lives of human beings in society.

Culture and Tradition History

Culture or cultures derived from the Sanskrit namely buddhayah, which is the plural form of buddhi (mind or intellect), defined as matters relating to the mind and human reason. In English, the culture is called culture, which comes from the Latin word Colere, namely processing or working. Can be interpreted also as cultivate the land or farming. The word culture is also sometimes translated as "kultur" in Indonesian.

Definition of Culture
Culture is a way of life that developed and owned jointly by a group of people and passed down from generation to generation. [1] Culture is made up of many complex elements, including religion and political systems, customs, languages, tools, clothing, buildings, and works of art. [1] language, as well as culture, an integral part of the human self so that many people tend to see them passed on genetically. When someone tries to communicate with people of different cultures and adjust differences, proving that culture is learned. [1]
Culture is a holistic lifestyle. culture is complex, abstract, and broad. Many cultural aspects contribute to determine the communicative behaviors. The elements of this socio-cultural spread and cover a lot of human social activities. [2]
Some reasons why people experience difficulties when communicating with people from other cultures is seen in the definition of culture: Culture is a complex device polarization values ​​by an image that contains the views of its merits alone. "The image that forces" that takes different forms in various cultures such as "crude individualism" in America, "individual harmony with nature" d Japan and "collective compliance" in China. Cultural image that is forcing it to equip its members with guidelines on proper behavior and set a world of meaning and logical values ​​that can be borrowed by its members the most humble to gain a sense of dignity and affinity with their lives.
Thus, the culture which provides a coherent framework for organizing one's activities and enable it predict the behavior of others.
