뜻
Stating that one has knowledge.
문화적 배경
Saying 'I know' can sometimes be seen as 'Ar-nar-de' (considerate) if you say it to prevent someone from wasting their breath explaining something you already know. In religious or academic settings, knowledge is sacred. Using 'Thi par tal' shows respect for the information being shared. In Yangon's business world, 'Thi par tal' is used to show you are 'on top of things.' It's a sign of competence. On Facebook (the main internet in Myanmar), 'Thi par tal' is often shortened to 'thi p' or just 'thi' in very casual comments.
The 'Par' Power
When in doubt, always include 'par'. It is never wrong to be too polite in Myanmar, but being too casual can be seen as rude.
Don't be dismissive
Avoid saying 'Thi par tal' repeatedly while someone is talking; it sounds like you want them to shut up.

You don't need to say 'I' (Kyun-taw/Kyun-ma). Just 'Thi par tal' is perfectly natural and common.
