IT MEANS:
For Batak people the family relationship is the most important.
They are not permitted to call someone's name, except they are still children.
They must call them like: BAPA/INANG TUA (our father's elder brother/ our mother's elder sister), BAPA/INANG UDA (our father's younger brother/ our mother's younger sister), OMPUNG (grandfather/ grandmother), NAMBORU (aunt), AMANGBORU (uncle), ITO (sister), LAE (brother in law), AKKANG/ ANGGI (elder/ younger brother/ elder/ younger sister), TULANG (uncle), NANTULANG (aunt).
Without asking for the clan/ family name and family tree if they are in the same clan, of course, we will be categorized as the  impolite person.

In doing something must be careful, because when we make a mistake, it can be fatal for ourselves
