"kuli" meaning in Indonesian

See kuli in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: [ˈku.li] Forms: kuliku [first-person, possessive], kulimu [possessive, second-person], kulinya [possessive, third-person]
Etymology: From Malay kuli, from Hindi क़ुली (qulī), from Chagatai [Term?], ultimately from Proto-Turkic *kul (“slave, servant”). Other forms occur in Bengali কুলি (kuli) and Tamil கூலி (kūli, “daily hire”), which are possibly also influenced by Hindi कोली (kolī, “weaver; low-class”). The Chinese word 苦力 (kǔlì), meaning "to exert one's abilities; heavy labour work" in Classical Chinese, may have been influenced by cognates of the above Hindi word in other languages and may have further influenced English.
