New Species

Cabe-Cabean

A group of pseudo-scientists have discovered new species of human in Indonesia alive. Let's welcome the Cabe. In Indonesia cabai means chili pepper, while the pronunciation in a daily conversation might slightly differ into cabe (pronounce as chaw-bay). When they say "kecil-kecil cabe rawit" to someone it's likely to be a compliment for someone small in size to pack a punch (awesome skills). Nevertheless these pseudo-scientists think differently. They label these boorish promiscuous girl or prostitutes, and adolescent who dresses maturely as Cabe. The literal abbreviation is so vulgar, I won't write it here. It's an insult, yet this term is emerging and gaining popularity. Worst is that some may not know the meaning but use it freely and proudly.

As I can't fathom why the hell they are honored to use that term, the competitiveness nature in the male species, they also want to have a catchy term for them, thus they come up with Terong-terongan (eggplant). Image plays an important aspect of Indonesian culture. They hate it when they're called Basi (means: outdated). I know that cabe-cabean has sexual innuendo. But why do they choose eggplant? The shape? size? or what? till now that baffled me.

"Terong-terongan"

So the obvious difference between cabe-cabean and terong-terongan is the gender. These new species currently fall within the same family called ALAY. Alay have some prominent characteristic when it comes fashion style, music prefernce, and their written language. So here's a few tips on how to spot ALAY

If you spot one and want to communicate with them, they are capable of speaking Bahasa Indonesia. However when it comes to the written, they use Alayan. If you love challenges in deciphering codes, you will love texting with Alays.

The Alays use capital letter and numbers as random as minds. Having hard time to write in Alayan? Don' worry we have the ALAY Generator to help you.
