- ကလေးများမှာယူနီကုန်များစွာစောင့်ရှောက်ရန် (kalaymyarhmuhsweyonekoanmyasweaungsyahrchaukyn) - playing video games with friends
These hobbies are just a few examples of how you can pass the time in Burma. Have a conversation with your Burmese friends to learn more about their interests and experiences.
Talking About Hobbies
To talk about your favorite hobby, start with "ကျေးဇူးတင်ပါတယ်" (chauzutinpatay) which means "How are you?" in Burmese. You can then respond with "ကျေးဇူးတင်ပါတယ်။ ကျေးဇူးသောက်လက်မဲ့ စားသောက်ခံစာလိုပါပဲ။" (chauzutinpatay. chauzuthawkainglakme sar sautey) which means "I'm good. I like to do photography."
You can replace "စားသောက်ခံစာ" (sa tawhkaing sa) with any hobby from the list above. Here are some examples:
- သင်က ကလေးများမှာယူနီကုန်များစွာစောင့်ရှောက်ပါ (sin ka kalaymyarhmuhsweyonekoanmyasweaungsahrchaukpa) - "I like to play video games with friends."
- သင်က ဖြုတ်ပြီးရင် ကြောက်ဖို့ဖြစ်စေသည် (sin ka pyoutpreyrin kyaukpouhpeyseit) - "I like to go fishing in my free time."
Remember to use the appropriate verb conjugation for each hobby. The Burmese language has different verb conjugations for different types of hobbies. For example, the verb for "to cook" is "ဆို" (sui) but the verb for "to paint" is "ဆိုင်" (suing).
