Indonesian, "plural of SMP" "junior high school level of the Indonesian education system". —Suzukaze-c 01:04, 20 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

[1], [2], [3].  --Lambiam 20:46, 21 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Lambiam, you often post citations here without checking whether or not they are durably archived, and if they are not, it does not matter if you produce three of them. Can you confirm that your first two citations appeared in print? —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 19:27, 28 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
Both are from daily newspapers that appear in print, but I cannot check whether these specific articles also appeared in their print editions. It is what one would expect, though, as their contents is news; the one on Suara NTB is additionally of political interest. For any singular countable noun N in Indonesian, its plural is N-N. It would be quite remarkable if the countable noun SMP failed to have a plural.  --Lambiam 20:14, 28 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
Maybe not so clear from the definition, but SMP basically just means “junior high school”, which is, like in English, countable (as in, “my brother and I went to different junior high schools”).  --Lambiam 20:20, 28 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
If there is still any doubt, here are two more GBS hits: [4], [5].  --Lambiam 20:54, 28 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
