معنی
Traditional blessing for long life.
زمینه فرهنگی
The phrase is often followed by the recipient saying 'Thadu' (Well done/Amen) three times. Longevity is considered one of the five blessings (Ayu) in Buddhism. Wishing it for others generates 'Kutho' (merit). In a Burmese home, the eldest member is the 'head'. This phrase reinforces their status every time a junior enters or leaves. On Facebook, it is common to see this phrase abbreviated or accompanied by flower emojis on elders' walls.
The Bow Matters
When saying this to an elder, a slight bow of the head makes it 10x more sincere.
Add 'Sate Chan Thar'
If you want to sound like a native, say 'Thet shay kyan mar sate chan thar par say'. It covers physical and mental health.
