What does merapi mean in English?

"Merapi" is an Indonesian word that translates to "mountain of fire" in English. It refers to a type of volcano, specifically a stratovolcano, known for its frequent eruptions.

The name "Merapi" is a combination of two Javanese words:

* "Meru" meaning mountain

* "Api" meaning fire

Therefore, "Merapi" literally means "fire mountain."
