I am the first child so I'm lucky enough to get more exposure from my grandparents, uncles and aunts.
I still remember when I was still in my aunt's arm, she brought me around the front yard of a decent house that my parents rented during the first few years of their marriage. We watched some neighbours passing by outside the yard's fence until finally my aunt talked to me in Javanese: "ayuk kondur" means "let's go home". I surprised and thought "what home? Isn't this is still part of the home?". Then I found that she meant "let's go inside the house". I am not sure how old I was, but I only got my first sibling when I was 2 an we moved out of that house when I was 4 years old.
