Hola semuaaa... ^^
gimana kabare? I hope u are all goooood...
well.. buat post yang kali ini, gw mau cerita about the importance of context dalam membedakan arti nomer..
why?
now u see...
ada 3 gambar dibawah.. ketiga2nya tu berhubungan dengan nomer kan? but then, they have three different meanings..
-> yang ini klo u dial nomer telepon orang..
-> yang ini nomer meja..OR
-> yang ini definitely nomer lotto.. Nah, they are all numbers. Aren't they??
Nah.. the new issue is.. Kenapa tiba2 gw mw nulis tentang ini?
answer:
hal ini diawali pada suatu hari cerah nan indah di Sydney.. TT_TT *sigh*
Pada suatu hari nan indahh (ehem.. last Sunday), gw n temen2 gereja gw pegi lunch.. pada awalnya, kita berniat buat makan di restoran Austria yang ada di suburb di deketnya leichardt..
but then, since it turned out that the restaurant was closed (every Sunday), kita pegi ke leichardt buat lunch.. waktu itu, kita bingung banget mau makan di resto mana..
so, abis muter2 milih2 resto, kita makan di bar italia..
gw mesen makanan.. and the convo continued this way..
me: "Erm.. can I have a number?"
TheGe-erGuyBehindTheCashRegisterer (TGGBTCR): "what? my number? Nooo... no. Not today." geleng2*
me: ??????? *bengong* "hah? Nononononoo.. I mean, the number. For my orders. The table number.." *nunjuk bon pesenan gw*
TGGBTCR:"o, oooooo.." *kekna baru connect* "nope. We will know straight away that it's your orders and we will give it to u." *nunjuk kepalanya dengan pede*
me: "oh. ok". *berasa dodol karena disangka minta nomer telpon orang* lalala... *kaburrrr (with my mocca ofcoz)*
u seeeeeeeeeee????? huhuhuhu... gw disangka nanyain nomer telepon diaaa!!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaarghhh!!!!! Tidakkk!!!!
mukanya cakep aja kaga. Enak diliatpun enggak! *merinding*
lagian jg gw uda ada co gitu. ngapain jg gw minta no telp co ga dikenal??? *yaikks!!!*
tapi ada satu hal yang jelas.. dalem ati gw, gw mencak2 ga keruan karena gw (mebbe) bakal disangka desperet buat nyari kenalan co ama orang2 di restonya (padahal kagaaaaa). Cehhhh!!!! huh!
Pesan Moral: I have no idea. ermm.. to avoid this, mebbe we can start by finding out which restaurant doesn't use numbers for the food orders? :P Or, we can kasi sumbangan cotton bud ke orang2 yang kita ajakin ngomong. It might be a good start. >.<
PS: Context is important!!!!
