Alan,
wouw... simple question but hard to answer.
I grew up in Rejodani, Sleman, Yogyakarta.
One of my hobbies was travelling. Attending from one Profesor/Kiai/Dukun/Talisman to another, starting whom lived near from till whom lived quite far from my home: Kaliurang, Magelang, Bantul, Yogya, Gunung Kidul, Klaten, Salatiga, Wonogiri, Temanggung, Purworejo, Purwokerto, Cilacap, Wonogiri, Pacitan, Bojonegoro, Demak, Kudus, Surakarta, Karanganyar, Ponorogo and so on and so on. Most of them spoke Javanese.
Once upon the time, I got those words I told to you already.
If I may know, where do you live now? Cause you said " another native spreaker". I hope... you live in either Surakarta, Jogjakarta or Semarang right now ang have been for a long time. So, I can communicate directly with you in Javanese. Ups, but, I will broke the regulation of this thread. English forum.
Well, I want to be obedient to follow the rule wherever I am
