Paying attention to speech
文化背景
In traditional homes, 'Kotha shona' is the benchmark for a child's upbringing. A child who doesn't 'listen' is often seen as a reflection of poor parenting. In village arbitrations (Salish), the elders' 'Kotha' is final. To not 'listen' to the Salish is to risk social boycott. Folk songs often use 'Kotha shono' to address the soul or a beloved, asking them to listen to the deeper truths of life. While becoming more egalitarian, the formal 'Kotha shunun' is still vital in maintaining professional respect between juniors and seniors.
