Nothing to add to any of that.

Kuda is Indonesian for "horse"

Jaran is Javanese (ngoko - low level) for "horse", other words for "horse" in Javanese are "kapal" (krama - high level) & "titihan" (krama inggil- very elevated, it actually means "that which is ridden", so by being indirect or obscure we are being polite)
