Mak nyah (original) (raw)
Mak Nyah ([ˈmaʔ ˈɲa]), alternatively spelled maknyah, is a Malay vernacular term for trans women in Malaysia. It arose in the late 1980s in order to distinguish trans women from other minorities. The name is preferred by Malaysian trans women as opposed to various derogatory terms (namely, pondan and bapok), which were previously used by Sarawakians when referring to transsexuals and cross-dressers. These are also considered slurs, which are variously directed to gay men as well as transgender individuals. Though less used, the term is sometimes used for trans men, and the hybrid term mak-pak nyah for all transgender individuals.

(en) Mak nyah atau maknyah adalah istilah dalam bahasa Melayu yang mengacu kepada wanita trans di Malaysia. Istilah ini pertama kali muncul pada akhir dasawarsa 1980-an untuk membedakan wanita trans dengan minoritas lainnya. (in) Mak nyah ([ˈMaʔ ˈɲa]), alternativamente escrito maknyah, é um termo vernáculo malaio para mulheres trans na Malásia. Ele surgiu no final dos anos 1980 para distinguir as mulheres trans de outras minorias. O nome é preferido por mulheres trans da Malásia em oposição a vários termos depreciativos (ou seja, pondan e bapok), que eram anteriormente usados por Sarawakians quando se referiam a transexuais e travestis. Esses também são considerados insultos, que são direcionados a homens gays e a indivíduos transgêneros. Embora menos usado, o termo pak nyah às vezes é usado para homens trans, e o termo híbrido mak-pak nyah para todos os indivíduos transgêneros. Adicionalmente nak nyah e xak nyah podem ser adotados para pessoas não-binárias. (pt) |
