What's an equivalent term in Indonesian for "take credit for the success" ?
(a) mengakui keberhasilan;
(b) berbangga akan keberhasilan;
(c) menerima pujian atau penghargaan atas keberhasilan ?
It's rather an unfamiliar term, since culturally we're not trained to take credit for something,
but rather to be modest about it, and not to appear proud of it.

mengaku berjasa atas (sesuatu)
Yang ditanyakan ialah 'take credit for (something)', yang berpadanan dengan "mengaku berjasa atas (sesuatu)". Namun dalam kalimat yang diberikan, 'take credit for the success' berpadanan dengan "mengakui keberhasilan" (salah satu kemungkinan yang diajukan oleh penanya).
| Exactly. Tampaknya mengaku berjasa, atau mengakui keberhasilan bukan sesuatu yang secara otomatis akan kita lakukan. Ada hambatan kultural, (ngono yo ngono, ning aja ngono) |
