أسئلة شائعة (6)

Yes. သူပဲ မသိဘူး means 'Only he doesn't know'. The ပဲ stays with the noun being emphasized.
ပဲ is for common speech; သာ is for formal writing. သာ is also more restrictive.
Yes! ပူတော့မယ် (It's about to get hot) or မလှတော့ဘူး (It's not pretty anymore). It works just like it does with verbs.
တော့ (taw) by itself is often a command or a topic marker. တော့မယ် (taw-mal) is the standard way to express your own immediate intent.
Yes! You can say လူတွေချည်းပဲ to mean 'nothing but people' (e.g., a huge crowd).
It is neutral. You can use it in both daily speech (with ပဲ) and formal writing (often without ပဲ).
