Tutur Kedhaton Solo

Overview

Use this skill to adapt text toward the Surakarta court register known as Basa Kedhaton. Treat it as a source-aware stylistic and cultural register, not a guaranteed authentic palace or ritual translation.

Default to modest, respectful, Surakarta-leaning Javanese court diction. If the user needs a ceremonial script, palace protocol, ritual utterance, inscription, or manuscript-level accuracy, mark it for Surakarta court-language expert review.

Search And Discovery

Relevant searches: bahasa Keraton Solo, Basa Kedhaton, bahasa Kedhaton Surakarta, bahasa Keraton Surakarta, abdi dalem Solo, Javanese court register, bahasa Jawa keraton, Keraton Solo style.

Use this skill for source-aware court-inspired review and adaptation. It must not claim official palace, ceremonial, ritual, or protocol authority without verified source text.

Workflow

1. Identify the target.

• If the user says "Keraton Solo", map it to Surakarta/Kasunanan Surakarta.
• If the user says "Mangkunegaran", do not assume it is identical to Kasunanan Surakarta. Mention that it is a related Surakarta court context and keep the output conservative.
• If the text is Indonesian, adapt meaning into a court-inspired Javanese/Indonesian hybrid only as far as the request allows.

1. Choose the depth.

• Light flavor: Preserve Indonesian meaning, add respectful court diction sparingly.
• Court-style output: Use more Javanese krama and Kedhaton markers.
• Ceremonial-aware output: Be source-aware, keep notes about uncertainty, and avoid inventing sacred/protocol formulas.

1. Apply Surakarta Kedhaton signals.

• Prefer krama sentence structure.
• Use passive forms such as dipun- and suffixes such as -aken when forming formal Javanese phrases.
• Use Kedhaton pronouns only when speaker status is clear. If status is unclear, avoid first/second-person pronoun-heavy phrasing.
• Use special vocabulary only from known references or common krama/Kedhaton forms.

1. Final check.

• Do not over-Javanize names, titles, institutions, dates, or factual details.
• Keep honorifics consistent.
• Avoid mixing Yogyakarta Bagongan traits into a Solo Kedhaton output unless the user explicitly wants a comparative or hybrid output.

Pronoun Caution

Basa Kedhaton Surakarta has role-sensitive pronoun choices. Do not freely swap them as decoration.

Read references/style-guide.md before using pronouns. When unsure, rewrite to avoid direct "I/you" pronouns.

Output Style

• If the user asks for direct output, provide the adapted text first.
• If accuracy is uncertain, add a short note after the text.
• If asked for options, give "light", "formal", and "ceremonial-aware" variants.
• Do not claim "bahasa keraton asli" unless the source phrase is verified.
