I love you... >>> aku tresno marang seliramu (it's a middle grade javanese language)

jancuk... >>>swearing...popular in east java (surabaya)....originally not come from javanese language :)

ngising... >>> it's a rough word :) polite grade will be "dateng wingking"
I want to go to toilet : kulo badhe dateng wingking
I want to take a shit : aku arep ngising

Semut, pls stop saying jancuk. You're very very bad :). You said you'd like to learn more, the Javanese language or the Surabayan swearing?

Is there any written material on the Java language, books etc, I´ve searched the Internet but never found any. Trim.

The real Java language is similar to Thailand style writing ( Ho no co ro ko). but if you want a dictionary Java-Indo-English, you can find it in Gunung agung or Kharisma book shop.

"Jancuk" is from east Java area, the word come from "encuk" the real meaning is actually "f#ck" in javanese, but of course in java you cant say porno word, so..it become jancuk. People said this word when they upset /dissappointed about something.

omg so that's really bad aye... thx for the explanation tho' ^^
