In the dialog, Budi said ‘maaf mbak’. The word ‘Mbak’ is usually used to greet women who are relatively young. To greet men who relatively young, you can call them ‘Mas’. The words ‘Mbak’ and ‘Mas’ can be followed by the name such as Mbak Sinta, Mbak Rani, Mas Tony and Mas Andi. Greeting for ‘Mbak’ or ‘Mas’ which has been introduced in today’s conversation is the general greeting. It does not mean to greet the older persons.
