Etymology

[edit]
This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “Could we get more clarification on the claim that this word was "coined"? A Malay dictionary from 1901[1] shows this word already listed in it with the exact same definition, making the claim seem possibly false.”

From Arabic إِعْلَان (ʔiʕlān).[2] Coined by Indonesian journalist Soedardjo Tjokrosisworo in 1951 with intention to replace adpertensi (current spelling advertensi). As the pronunciation of syllable-final k is ambiguous for many speakers of Indonesian, it triggers the spelling pronunciation with a hard /k/.
