뜻
Being diligent in one's studies.
문화적 배경
Education is considered the most important asset for social mobility. Parents often sacrifice a lot to ensure their children can 'Sa Kyo Sar'. The roots of 'Sa Kyo Sar' lie in the respect for 'Sa' (scripture). Even today, books are kept in high places and never placed on the floor. With the rise of social media, 'Sa Kyo Sar' has become a common hashtag for students sharing their study aesthetics (Studygram). While 'Sa Kyo Sar' is for students, the value of 'Kyo Sar' (effort) is carried into the workplace as 'A-lote Kyo Sar'.
Complimenting kids
If you want to make a Burmese parent happy, tell them their child is 'Sa Kyo Sar tal'.
Don't forget the 'Sa'
Just saying 'Kyo Sar tal' means 'I'm trying', but it doesn't specify studying. Always include 'Sa'.
