💡 LEARNING TIP:
Make sure you use the pauses in the video to give yourself an opportunity to practice saying the Myanmar aloud - this is a really important part of consolidating your learning.
And if you find that the pauses are too short, pause the video to give yourself time to work it out and speak at a pace that's comfortable and relaxed for you.

A NOTE ON ROMANISATION:
We’ve made the decision not to include the romanised version of the Myanmar words included in our videos. While it can seem to be helpful at the beginning, it can end up being a bit of a ‘crutch’. From our experience, we can definitely recommend taking the time to learn to read the Myanmar script as a priority, as this will ensure a more accurate and consistent result.
Love Myanmar videos are presented on the basis that the viewer can now read the Myanmar script.

Thanks for joining us for this Myanmar lesson. See you next time!
