  6. Dulu Wor adalah upacara agama tradisional Biak, namun setelah kedatangan agama Protestan, Wor menjadi bagian dari ibadah gereja Protestan di Biak. Misalnya, nyanyian untuk menyembah Manseren Ro Nanggi (Yesus Kristus).
  7. Nyanyian tersebut biasanya dipimpin oleh seorang ketua adat sambil diiringi dengan Tifa —alat musik pukul yang terbuat dari sebatang kayu yang dilubangi dan salah satu sisi ujungnya ditutupi dengan kulit biawak yang telah dikeringkan untuk menghasilkan suara yang bagus. Satu-satunya alat musik selain Tifa adalah alat musik tiup yang terbuat dari kerang besar (Charonia Tritones).
  8. Biasanya, penyanyi hanya satu orang yang ditemani oleh beberapa penari baik laki-laki maupun perempuan. Mereka mengenakan pakaian yang terbuat dari kulit kayu kemudian tubuh mereka dilukis dengan motif khas Biak. Selain itu, para penari memakai hiasan. Laki-laki menggunakan hiasan kepala yang terbuat dari bulu burung Cenderawasih dan penari perempuan menggunakan kulit kerang kecil sebagai gelang dan kalung.

Punya vs Mempunyai

Both punya and mempunyai have the same meaning: ‘to own, possess, have something. Both are transitive verbs meaning they need to be followed by an object as in mempunyai uang (to have money). In the past, punya used to be considered substandard and unfit for formal conversation. Over time, this negative perception has changed. Today, both punya and mempunyai can be used in formal Indonesian, but there is still a slight preference for the more formal mempunyai.

Pembicara vs Penutur

Both pembicara and penutur translate as ‘speaker’. A pembicara is someone who delivers a speech, an orator or spokesman. The noun penutur is derived from the verb menuturkan ‘to pronounce; announce; tell; relate; narrate’. A penutur is a speaker, a narrator, or an announcer, but the word is most often used in a linguistic context:

  • Jumlah penutur bahasa Indonesia telah mencapai 300 juta.
    The number of speakers of the Indonesian language reaches 300 million.
  • BIPA adalah bentuk singkat dari ‘bahasa Indonesia bagi penutur asing’.
    BIPA is the abbreviation for ‘Indonesian as a foreign language’. (Literally; ‘Indonesian for foreign speakers’)

Bisa vs Dapat

The word dapat often has the meaning of ‘to get; obtain’, but it can also serve as a formal synonym of bisa ‘can’. It is very frequently used in passive voice phrases such as dapat diambil ‘can be taken’, dapat dibaca ‘can be read’, and so on:

  • Wor dapat diartikan sebagai nyanyian dan upacara tradisional orang Biak.
    Wor can be interpreted as a chant and a traditional ceremony of the Biak people.

Grammar: Prefix ber-

The prefix ber- creates intransitive verbs. An intransitive verb is a verb that doesn’t require a direct object (i.e., a noun, pronoun or noun phrase) to indicate the person or thing acted upon. For example, the verbs “yawn” or “die” are intransitive because it’s not possible to yawn or to die something or someone. The opposite is a transitive verb, which must take a direct object. In English many verbs can either be transitive or intransitive depending on the context. So you can say “Mother is reading” (intransitive) “Mother is reading a book” (transitive). You can find more about transitive and intransitive verbs here.

In Indonesian, the vast majority of me-. verbs, and all me-…-i and me-…-kan verbs are transitive.

All ber- verbs are intransitive. There are several categories of ber- verbs. Some ber- verbs have verbal bases such as berenang swim, berangkat leave, berbuat do, bekerja work, bertemu meet, berpikir think, belajar study, berhenti stop, berdiri stand, berubah change, and many more.

The largest group of ber- verbs has a general meaning: ‘have, own [base]’. This includes berisi contain, berduri thorny, berumur be aged, bermaksud mean, bernama be named, beristri have a wife, berbau smell, beranak have children, berhasil succeed, berpendapat have the opinion, berbeda be different, and so on.

Some ber- verbs refer to work which is regularly performed or done for a living: berdagang engage in trade, berkebun own or work gardens, berkuli work as a labourer, berladang own or work unirrigated fields, bersawah own or work rice fields, bertukang work as an artisan, berlayar sail a boat, berburu take part in a hunt, and bertani engage in raising crops.

  • Wor dilaksanakan pada saat melakukan pekerjaan penting seperti berlayar, berburu dan bertani.
    A Wor ritual is performed when important tasks have to be carried out such as sailing, hunting, and farming.

For more information on ber- verbs consult paragraphs 1.167–1.177 of J. Sneddon et al. Indonesian: A Comprehensive Grammar, Routledge 2010. The same book was also published under the title Indonesian Reference Grammar by Allen & Unwin, Sydney, 2010.
