Kepedean Meaning In Indonesian

Halo semuanya, apa kabar? This time we're going to talk about the meaning of [kepedean] in the Indonesian language. As always, we're going to watch a scene from an Indonesian movie where this word is spoken.

If you have any questions regarding the Indonesian language, you can ask me directly, or you can join my group. You can see it on my About Me page.

So, let's dive in!

Kepedean In the Indonesian Language

Kepedean comes from the word pede, which is actually written as PD. If you pronounce this, it will sound the same as pede, so that's why it's written in this fashion. This acronym stands for [Percaya Diri]. Percaya diri means self-confidence.

If you said that someone is [kepedean], it means that he or she has more confidence than it is sensible to be, often in an annoying way.

Kepedean also means [terlalu PD] or [terlalu pede] or [terlalu percaya diri]. [Terlalu] means [over]

Kepedean In Movie Clips

This clip is taken from a television program in Indonesia called FTV Cinta Dalam Dompet. Let's watch the clip down below.

The conversation in the scene above with English translations is as follows.

Reno: Loe! Apaan sih? Hah! Loe dateng-dateng maen rangkul-rangkul gue doang. Eh, gue tahu ya! Gue tahu ya gue ganteng! Gue tahu gue ganteng. Semua orang tuh rata-rata cewe ngejar gue. Gue tahu! Tapi ngga gini caranya. Elegan dikit dong! Ntar kalo gebetan gue liat, gimana? Ha? (Hey you! What are you doing? You came out of the blue and then just hugged me. Hey, I know! I know that I'm handsome! I know it. I know that girls are crazy for me. I know that! But, please don't you do like this! At least you do it with style! What if my crush sees this, ha?)

Kinan: Dih! Kepedean banget loe jadi cowo! Ya, sorry! Gue salah orang. Gue kira tadi, loe gebetan baru gue. Ternyata salah deh. (Hey! You're being overconfident! Sorry! I had the wrong guy. I just thought that you were my crush.)

Reno: Hmm.

Kinan: Udah ah! (Bye!)

Reno: Loe! Enak aja loe main pergi aja! Loe udah meluk-meluk gue, injek-injek gue terus main pergi aja, gitu? (You! You just go like that? After you hugged me, stomped my feet, and then you just walk away? Not so fast, girl!)

Kinan: Ya udah, kan gue udah minta maaf. Ih, loe ih! (Hey, I've made an apology to you. Come on!)

In the scene above, Kinan, all of a sudden, hugged Reno. Actually, they don't know each other. Kinan was doing that to prove to her friend that she also had a boyfriend. So, she tried to just hug anyone who looks rich, and it happened to be Reno, who just got out of his car.

Being treated like that, Reno didn't like it, and then he bragged that he knew that he was a handsome man, and he said to Kinan that he also knew that girls are crazy about him. After heard Reno said that, Kinan said this to him.

Kepedean banget loe jadi cowo! (Literal translation: As a man, you're being overconfident!)

If I rephrase this sentence into a formal sentence, it will become.

Anda terlalu percaya diri! (You're being overconfident!)
