뜻
A person who is studying.
문화적 배경
Students wear a green longyi and a white shirt. This uniform is a source of national pride and identity. Historically, all 'kyaung:tha:' were boys in monasteries. This is why the word literally means 'son of the school'. Students perform 'Pu Zaw Pwe' (respect ceremony) for their teachers annually, showing the high status of the teacher-student bond. The 'Fighting Peacock' flag is the symbol of the Burmese student unions, representing their role in the struggle for democracy.
Default to Masculine
When referring to a mixed group of students, always use 'kyaung:tha: myar:'.
Gender Accuracy
Be careful not to call a female student 'kyaung:tha:'; it's a very common beginner mistake.
