Elementary question: When people say Indonesian language, people think of either

1. Javanese (since it was and is very prominent)
2. Malay language of Indonesian standard

Which one is it? I'm sometimes get confused.

Should I say "Selamat Siang"?

I have been to Indonesia last month and I know a fair share of Bahasa Indonesia
A friend of me taught me some basic vocabulary and how to make basic sentences, but because of my recent interest in Japanese I just cannot remember ANY of the words she taught me...Only the Japanese equivalent haha!

Cheers,

Will
