意味
Feeling anger.
文化的背景
Expressing anger directly is often avoided to maintain 'social coolness'. If someone is 'Seik soe', they might simply stop talking to you rather than shouting. In a meeting, saying 'I am angry' (Seik soe tal) is very rare. Instead, people use 'Seik ma thar buu' (Mind is not pleasant). The concept of 'Seik kauk' (sulking) is a key part of dating. It's often expected that the other partner will 'chawt' (coax or soothe) the one who is 'Seik kauk'. Buddhism teaches that 'Seik soe' is a form of 'Dosa' (hatred/aversion), one of the three poisons. Many Burmese will try to 'shoke' (extinguish) their anger through meditation.
The 'Ma' Sandwich
Remember that to say 'not angry', you put 'ma' in the middle: Seik-ma-soe.
Don't shout
Even if you say 'I am angry', saying it loudly is very un-Burmese. Keep your voice steady.

Use 'Nay' for impact
Adding 'nay' (Seik soe nay tal) makes it sound much more immediate and real.
Coaxing
If someone is 'Seik soe', try saying 'Seik ma soe par nae' (Please don't be mad) even if it wasn't your fault. It's a social lubricant.
