Elektriku

Elektriku is a term in Indonesian that can function as a possessive form related to electricity or electric devices. It is formed by combining the adjective elektrik (electric) with the suffix -ku meaning "my," yielding a rough sense of "my electric" or "my electricity." In standard Indonesian, however, speakers usually say listrikku to mean "my electricity." The form elektriku is therefore mostly found in informal speech, creative writing, or brand-style language where a concise or stylized expression is desired. Its exact meaning depends on context; without context it can be read as a playful or emphatic possessive related to electricity.

Etymology and usage notes: The root elektrik means electric or related to electric devices. The noun for electricity is listrik. The suffix -ku marks first-person possession. Because listrik is the more common noun for electricity, listrikku is typically preferred in ordinary conversation. Elektrik is also used to refer to electrical appliances (perangkat elektrik) or technical topics (teknik elektrik).

Examples of use: "Listrikku padam" (My electricity/power is out). "Perangkat elektrikku rusak" (My electrical device is broken) could occur in informal speech, though "perangkat listrikku" is equally natural.

In branding or creative contexts, "Elektriku" might appear as a product name or slogan, evoking electricity and personal ownership. See also listrik, perangkat elektrik, elektronika.
