"Koran-koran ini dari Jakarta."

Translation: These newspapers are from Jakarta.

Do Indonesian Muslims find it degrading that their term for newspapers sounds so much like Quran?

[shayb90]

Lol, no, we mostly pronounce it as 'kurr-an' for Quran, very distinct fromthe pronouciation 'ko-ran' for newspaper

[dylazia]

not really, we often say it "al-Qur'an"
