Minangkabau People

Minangkabau people are embracing the region's largest matrilineal kinship system in the world. where the lineage of descent is determined mother, not from the father. Minangkabau people have principles, namely “adat basandi syarak, syarak basandi kitabullah”.

Minangkabau people are very prominent in the field of commerce, many of the people minangkbau wander in the big cities in Indonesia, even abroad. For me Minangkabau people are very cunning, but can also be said to be lazy. We can see that minang people not want to lost, they are confined when it wants out, and pinned at the top. The point is they are people who want to be happy and do not want to lose.
         They can also be said to be lazy, as most of the minang people little work and eat a lot. We can see the minang people who work as porters of buildings, they are a little work, and if there are certain foods company spirit.

         I think that Minangkabau people a lot of mockers. They are very fond of mocking something or the people around them. But they are not necessarily better. I am also Minangkabau people, also sometimes mocked. Maybe something funny or strange to see, would be immediately comment.

        Minagkabau people have ordinances or attitude in speech, in which we should not speak carelessly, like

1. Word up, this is a word used to talk with people we respect, or older.

2. The word to the decline, this is the word used for people smaller than us, such  as the sister

3. The word landscape, the word used for people who are age

4. The word ramp, said that a metaphor or innuendo.
