Tobati Language originates from the people living around Yotefa Bay or Jayapura Bay, Jayapura City, Papua Province. Currently, the speakers of Tobati language are spreading in three districts in Papua Province, namely South Jayapura, Abepura, and Muara Tami. The number of Tobati speakers in 1984 was 800, and 600 in 1999. However, the number of speakers is now decreasing due to influence of other languages. Even, the speakers of Tobati language are predicted to remain only 500 people whom all of them are elderly. Therefore, the Tobati language is categorized as "seriously endangered language". |

The characters of Tobati language use the same ones with Indonesian or Latin. However, there are several characters unavailable in Tobati language such as x, q, v, and z. Another uniqueness of Tobati language is its clause and sentence structure. If Indonesian structure consists of subject-predicate-object, the Tobati language uses subject-object-predicate. |

In Indonesia in one day, there are 4 concepts of time, namely, pagi or morning, siang or early afternoon, sore or late afternoon, and night. Greetings given will be adjusted with these times. You can say “Selamat pagi” (Good morning) in the morning but only until around 11 am. During the day, from 11 am until approximately 3 pm you can say “Selamat siang”(good afternoon). But late in the afternoon from 3pm to around 5 or 6 pm, you would say “Selamat sore” (good afternoon). After that, the greeting will be only ”Selamat malam”. There is no differentiation between good evening, and good night. However, all the greetings are usually said to people you don’t know well or in an official situation. To answer, you can repeat the greetings as they are given, such as “Selamat pagi” (good morning) or simply say “Pagi” (morning), “Siang”(afternoon), “Sore” (afternoon) or “Malam”(evening/night).
That was today’s edition of Let's Speak Bahasa Indonesia. Hopefully, it can be useful for those of you who want to know more about Bahasa Indonesia. Let's meet again tomorrow with a different topic.
