Seringkah anda mendengar orang menyebut bill ketika minta bon di restoran? Menyumpah ‘fuck!’, alih-alih teriak ‘anjing!’? Tabbayyun? Di-call? Di-hold? Ini kekurangan kosakata, atau aksi-aksian saja? Atau mungkin juga untuk menghaluskan sebuah ungkapan?

Yang lucu itu istilah driver yang sering dipakai untuk meninggikan jabatan sopir. Padahal di bahasa Belanda dan Inggris, sopir atau chauffeur itu identik dengan pegawai yang mengemudikan limo dan mobil pribadi, yang lebih bergengsi dibanding driver. Istilah driver itu biasa dipakai untuk menyebut pengemudi truk dan bis.

Halah, kok jadi kebalik-balik gini. Ah biarlah, cuma masalah persepsi aja, kan intinya juga nyetir. Seperti pegawai swasta yang intinya babu, dan pegawai negeri yang intinya maling. Wah ini kok jadi nggak pakai eufemisme lagi ya? :D
