معنی
Having the ability to wait or endure.
زمینه فرهنگی
Patience is considered one of the 'Ten Perfections' (Paramitas) in the dominant Buddhist culture. Being 'Seik Shay' is not just a personality trait but a spiritual goal. In business meetings, showing impatience (Seik to) can lead to a loss of respect. Decisions are often made slowly, and being 'Seik Shay' is necessary for successful negotiations. Due to frequent power outages and traffic, 'Seik Shay' has become a survival mantra for city dwellers. It's often used with a sense of shared resignation. Elders are expected to be 'Seik Shay' with the younger generation, and children are taught to respect the 'long mind' of their grandparents.
Double for Emphasis
Say 'Seik shay shay' (doubling the 'shay') to sound more native when giving advice or describing a high degree of patience.
Negation Placement
Never say 'Ma seik shay bu'. It must be 'Seik ma shay bu'. The mind (seik) isn't negated, the length (shay) is!
