意思
General term for studying or learning.
文化背景
Historically, the 'Wat' (temple) was the only place to 'rian nang seu.' Monks were the keepers of knowledge, and literacy was a spiritual pursuit. There is a huge emphasis on 'rian phiset' (extra classes). Students often study from 8 AM until 8 PM to stay competitive. Parents often sacrifice a lot to send their children to 'rian nang seu' in the city or abroad, seeing it as the only way to escape poverty. In Laos, you can always tell who is going to 'rian nang seu' by their uniform: white shirts and 'sinh' (traditional skirts) for girls, and dark trousers for boys.
The 'Nang Seu' Rule
When in doubt, add 'nang seu' after 'rian' to sound more natural in Lao, unless you are naming a specific subject.
Don't use for sports
Never say 'rian nang seu football.' Just say 'rian football' or 'fuk football.'
