"tidak tahu di untung" Explanation: No-goodniks: lowlife/ no-good (merriam) Secara harfiah munkin "orang rendahan" tapi karena konteksnya sedang kesal, padanan frasa diatas cukup sesuai menurut saya. Reference: http://mw4.m-w.com/dictionary/no-goodnik |

kapiran Explanation: Di KBBI: ka·pi·ran Jw a tidak terurus; telantar; tidak beroleh apa-apa; sia-sia. Hubungannya? Orang kapiran biasanya cuma bikin masalah, orang tak berguna. Cuma sedikit yang dapat menjadi orang berguna. Hal ini karena makna yang saya tangkap ketika dulu masih sering baca novel2 bule, no-goodnik ini kira2 bermakna orang yang cuma bikin repot, tak bisa diharapkan. Cari2, eh ketemu pendukung: Ref: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/no-goodnik?qsrc=2446 [noˈgʊdnɪk] 1. n. someone who is no good. (The nik is from Russian via Yiddish.) |
