INILAH.COM, Jakarta – Almarhum Rosihan Anwar selain dikenal sebagai penulis juga penemu dan pengusung kosa kata baru. Kata “gengsi” adalah salah satu kata yang ditemukannya.
Rosihan menerapkan kata “gengsi” untuk menggantikan kata prestige dalam bahasa Inggris. Ia menggunakan kata itu pada 1949 ketika terjadi Agresi Militer Belanda I. Ia menulis di majalah Siasat mengenai keengganan Belanda melakukan perundingan dengan Indonesia cenderung lebih disebabkan prestige.
Ia menggantikan kata “prestige” itu dengan “gengsi”. Kata Gengsi itu sendiri ia adopsi dari perbendaharaan bahasa remaja di Minangkabau.
Selain itu, Rosihan juga dikenal sebagi pengusung dan pendukung kosa kata baru yang lebih menunjukkan Indonesia. Misalnya, ia menggunakan kata “Anda” untuk kata ganti orang ke dua. Rosihan adalah orang yang pertama kali menggunakan kata “Anda” dalam penulisan.
Ia menulis kata itu di harian Pedoman pada 28 Februari 1957. Kata “Anda” itu sendiri muncul pertama kali dalam kamus Bahasa Indonesia Modern karangan Sutan Mohamad Zain.
Keteguhannya untuk menggunakan kata berbahasa Indonesia dan upayanya menemukan kosa kata baru ini sangat diapresiasi oleh banyak kalangan. Bahkan Gubernur DKI Jakarta Fauzi Bowo memiliki kesan tersendiri dengan hal itu.

Tom Cruise balajar ngerock!
Dalam peran barunya sebagai rocker berandalan Stacee Jaxx, Tom Cruise tentunya dituntut untuk menyanyi. Tom memutuskan untuk menyewa seorang pelatih vokal yang akan membantunya, yang tak lain adalah Axl Rose!
Aktor berusia 48 tahun ini akan memerankan sang rocker yang merupakan pentolan band rock yang tenar di tahun 80-an dalam film adaptasi pertunjukan Broadway berjudul ROCK OF AGES. Keseriusan Cruise dalam mendalami perannya pun sampai membuat sang sutradara, Adam Shankman, terpukau.
"Dia sedang berlatih bersama Axl Rose. Beneran! Rose melatihnya selama 5 jam dalam sehari. Kemajuannya lebih dari sangat mengesankan. Kurasa kita semua akan melihatnya sebagai dewa rock 'n Roll," ungkap Adam.
Adam pun mengaku puas dengan hasil kerja Cruise, yang disebutnya sangat berkomitmen dengan pekerjaannya. "Dia menempatkan diri dalam peran ini tak seperti para aktor lain yang pernah bekerja denganku. Sangat serius. Selain latihan vokal, dia juga mempelajari era 1987-an," puji sang sutradara. Selain Cruise, Alec Baldwin dan Russell Brand juga akan membintangi film ini.

ULAT BULU
Ulat bulu telah mewabah di Indonesia. Binatang itu telah menyerang belasan ribu pohon di Jawa Timur, Bali, NTB, Jakarta dan terakhir di Yogyakarta.
Sudah banyak yang jadi korban. Jangankan menyentuh badannya, bulu-bulu halus yang rontok dari tubuh ulat bulu itu bisa membuat kulit gatal, bengkak, dan menghitam. Menteri Kesehatan Endang Rahayu Sedyaningsih memberikan cara agar warga tak menderita gara-gara ulat bulu. "Jika terkena, cepat dihilangkan bulunya dengan dicuci, kemudian kalau gatalnya tidak hilang bisa berobat ke puskesmas tidak perlu bayar," kata dia di rumah duka Rosihan Anwar, Kamis 14 April 2011.Menurutnya, hingga saat ini pihaknya belum mendapat laporan mengenai bahaya besar dari wabah ulat bulu tersebut, "Hanya gatal ringan mudah-mudahan tidak ada gangguan lebih dari itu," tambah dia. Meski menyebar di banyak wilayah, menurut Menkes, wabah ulat bulu belum bisa dikatakan bencana nasional. Pasalnya, pemerintah kota setempat masih bisa menanggulangi penyebaran ulat bulu.
Sebelumnya, Wakil Menteri Pertanian, Bayu Krisnamurthi mengatakan ulat telah menyerang 2,5 persen dari populasi pohon di Indonesia. "14.500 pohon dari 1,8 Juta pohon sudah diterkena ulat bulu," kata dia usai mengisi kuliah umum di Universitas Gajah Mada Yogyakarta, Kamis 14 April.Bayu mengakui, meski merebaknya ulat bulu adalah siklus yang sudah terjadi, apa yang terjadi baru-baru ini memang luar biasa. Ini disebabkan dampak perubahan iklim di tahun 2010.

I WANT TO SPEND MY LIFETIME LOVING YOU
Moon so bright, night so fine
Keep your heart here with mine
Life's a dream we are dreaming
Race the moon, catch the wind
Ride the night to the end
Seize the day, stand up for the light
I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
Heroes rise, heroes fall
Rise again, win it all
In your heart, can't you feel the glory?
Through our joy, through our pain
We can move worlds again
Take my hand, dance with me
I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
I will want nothing else to see me through
If I could spend my lifetime loving you
Though we know we will never come again
When there is love, life begins
Over and over again
Save the night, save the day
Save your love, come what may
Love is worth everything we pay
I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
I will want nothing else to see me through
If I can spend my life time loving you
Keep your heart here with mine
Life's a dream we are dreaming
Race the moon, catch the wind
Ride the night to the end
Seize the day, stand up for the light
I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
Heroes rise, heroes fall
Rise again, win it all
In your heart, can't you feel the glory?
Through our joy, through our pain
We can move worlds again
Take my hand, dance with me
I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
I will want nothing else to see me through
If I could spend my lifetime loving you
Though we know we will never come again
When there is love, life begins
Over and over again
Save the night, save the day
Save your love, come what may
Love is worth everything we pay
I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
I will want nothing else to see me through
If I can spend my life time loving you
BECAUSE OF YOU
Look, why don't you play that song you played for me yesterday?
Oh ok yeah, that song because of you, cool
This is a song called because of you...written because of you...here we go
Verse 1:
...oh yah, oh yah...
If ever you wondered if you touched my soul yes you do
Since I met you I'm not the same
You bring life to everything I do
Just the way you say hello
With one touch I can't let go
Never thought I'd fall in love with you...
Because of you, my life has changed, thank you for the love and joy you bring
Because of you, I feel no shame, I'll tell the world it's because of you
Sometimes I get lonely and all I gotta do is think of you
You captured something inside of me
You make all of my dreams come true
It's not enough that you love me for me
You reached inside and touched me eternally
I love you best explains how I feel for you...
Because of you, my life has changed, thank you for the love and the joy you bring
Because of you, I feel no shame, I'll tell the world it's because of you
The magic in your eyes
True love I can't deny
When you hold me I just lose control
I want you to know that I'm never letting go
You mean so much to me I want the world to see,
It's because of you
Because of you, my life has changed, thank you for the love and the joy you bring
Because of you, I feel no shame, I'll tell the world it's because of you
My life has changed thank you for the love and the joy you bring
Because of you, I feel no shame, I'll tell the world it's because of you...

I DON'T WANNA MISS A THING by:Aerosmith
I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Every moment spent with you
Is a moment I treasure
Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
Laying close to you
Feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
Wondering if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes and thank God we're together
I just wanna stay with you
In this moment forever, forever and ever
Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
I just wanna be with you
Right here with you, just like this
I just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time
Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
'Cause I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
