Etymology

A compound of 'usia' from Sanskrit 'ayuṣya' (long-lived) and 'harapan' from Malay-Indonesian roots. This term is a calque (loan translation) of the English demographic concept 'life expectancy,' which gained widespread use in Indonesian statistical and public health literature during the mid-20th century.
