Great big thanks to all of you who responded.
My problem had been to gloss the name of a foundation that was
set up under the Sarekat (Dagang) Islam in 1913, called
_Krido-Mardi-Kismo_.
What I managed to locate in dictionaries was:
_krida_ 'action, motion', and
_kisma_ 'soil, earth'.
but I was very uncertain about _mardi_.
With your help now, I guess the name of the foundation could be
translated as
'movement for enlightenment of the motherland'.
(assuming krida=gerak[an], mardi=[pen]cerdas[an], kisma=tanah[air])
If you see any mistakes here, please do let me know.
Thanks once more for the many responses.
Aloha,
Waruno
