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.

Workflow
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
