"Kepala besar!"

Translation: Big head!

[JamesTWils]

Does this have an idiomatic meaning in Indonesian, or are we taunting people with large heads?

if it's "Besar Kepala", it can mean arrogant, but "kepala besar" doesn't really have any meaning beside literal i guess

I was wondering why this sounded so similar to Greek cephale when Dutch hoofd was (while etymologically related) significantly different in pronunciation. But apparently, while this is indeed an Indo-European loan, it's actually originally Sanskrit.
