35. Do you think money is important?
From my point of view, ( ေျ)ပာ
င္money is very important in

my life.
Without money, we cannot buy what we need.
Without money, we cannot go where we want to go.
You know, money is the second god.
A proverb said, “When the money speaks the truth is
silent”. Monkeys don’t need money. You know, I’m
not a monkey. So I need money.
For me, money is not always important. I think
money cannot buy happiness, true friends and true
love.
Money can buy a book, but not knowledge.
Money can buy a clock, but not time.
Money can buy position, but not respect.

36. Do you think love is the only important thing in life?


Of course I do. In fact, a life without love becomes
meaningless. In my opinion, love is more important
than other things. I love my family. I love my
country.
Even if you have to work to earn money, you need to
love your job. I think a life with love is bright,
beautiful and full of happiness. You know, for me,
love is the most important thing in life.

No, I don’t think so. Firstly, what I want to say is life


is quite different from fiction.(စိတ္ကူး) Actually
we need a lot of things in life. For example, we need
money, love, honesty, education and so on. When
you’re hungry, you cannot eat love. At that time, you
need some food.
When you have a problem, love cannot solve the
problem.
At that time, you need money, intelligence and other
things. Love is love. Life is life. It’s not the same.

12
37. Do you think life today is easy?
Yes, I think like that. There are lots of opportunities
for everyone. Machines can help people in daily life.
We can use washing machines, dishwashers and
vacuum cleaners today. It’s easy to go everywhere
by car, train and plane.
And then it’s easy to know what’s happening
in the world on the internet.
I mean internet tells people about the world right
away.

No, I don’t think so like that. You know, it’s true lots
of things are easy now. But people are stressed out
today. There are lots of things to worry about.
People have to work hard day and night to get what
they need in life. I think life is struggle today.

38. Do you switch on the light?


Yes, I switch on the light. I’m afraid of the dark.
I don’t dare to go out alone at night.
I’m afraid of ghosts. I believe in ghosts.
I know that the electricity bill is too expensive.
We should switch off the light when we go out.
We should turn off the TV if we don’t watch TV.
(TV ေ the မထည့္ရ၊ လွ်ပ္စစ္ပစၥည္းအေ
နႏွင့္သံုးလွ်င္ the ထည့္ရသည္)။
No, I don’t switch on the light. I switch off the light.
I know that I have to switch off all the lights before I
go to bed. I know that I have to turn off the fan when
I go out. But the lights went off. (မီးပ်က္သည္)။
Nowadays, the power is out from time to time
in Myanmar. The electricity is off nearly every day in
Myanmar today. In my opinion, the electricity is very
important to develop for a country.

39. Do you learn from experience?
For me, I learn from experience. It’s important to
learn from experience. You know that the more you
learn, the more you earn. And you can also learn
from other people’s experience. Learning from
experience is the best way not to make the same
mistake again.
We all know that experience is the best teacher in
life.
I also think like that. And I think experience is better
than learning from books. I want you to learn from
experience, not just from books.

No, I don’t learn from experience. So I lose from time


to time. Now I understand I should learn from
experience. When I was young, I didn’t care what the
people think about me. You know, I made a lot of
mistakes. I couldn’t learn from experience. But now I
know what I should do or what I should not do in life.
I mean I can learn from experience.

40. Do you look down on me?


Yes, sure. I look down on you.
You know, why I look down on you is because you are
very selfish. You are not polite. I don’t like it. And
then you are not kind to other people and animals.
That’s bad. You don’t treat kindly to other people
and animals.
You don’t speak kindly to others.

No, no, no, I don’t look down on you.


In my mind, you are very honest.
I think honesty is the best policy.
And then you are an open book. I like very much.
And you are not cruel to other people and animals.
So all in all, you are a good hearted man.

14
41. Do you flatter him?
Yes, I do. To tell you the truth, I need a job.
You know, my mom is feeling under the weather.
I mean my mom is ill. So I need some money.
That’s why I flatter him to find a new job.
I’m sorry about it. But, you know, to the best of my
knowledge,(ငါသိသေလာက္ေျပာရရင္ေတာ့)
he’s really nice.
Most of the people from here know about him.
He’s a good person.

No, I don’t flatter him. I’m not an apple polisher. ( င


ဖား)
And I don’t look up to him. You know, he tends to
brag.
I don’t like it. I don’t want to associate with him.
I don’t want to tell anything about him. Don’t ask me
about him again. Thanks.

42. Do you like talking about the weather?


Yes, I do. You know, there are three seasons in
Myanmar. The climate of Mandalay is hot. I don’t like
hot weather.
But I love Mandalay.
The climate of Pyin Oo Lwin is cold.
I think that the weather is moderate in Myanmar.
As you know, when I was young, I wanted to be a
weatherman. My favourite weatherman is Sayagyi U
Tun Lwin.

No, I don’t. I’m not interested in the weather.


To put it simply, I love music. I’m interested in music.
I like talking about music. I like listening to music.
Music is only matter in my life.

15
43. Do you know Aung La Nsang?
Of course I do. He is the cham-cham. He is the man’s
man. He is the biggest one in Asia. Everybody knows
him in Myanmar. His country, Myanmar built a statue
for him in his native Kachin State. Aung La Nsang
nicknamed “Burmese Python” was born on May 21,
1985, in Myitkyina, Kachin State, Myanmar. He is of
Kachin ethnic descent. His parents are Nsang Tu
Aung who is a jewelry trader and Shadan Nang Bu.
He is the third of five siblings.

Sadly not. I don’t know him. I don’t know where he


lives.
I don’t know where he was born. I don’t really know
about him. Please tell me about him.
44. Do you gossip about other people?
Yes, I do. But not always. I can’t help gossiping about
other people. I know it’s not good for me.
To be honest with you, I don’t hate anyone.

No, I don’t gossip about other people. Backbiting is


not good. When we are jealous of other people, we
usually gossip. But you know, we cannot do to
improve our life by backbiting. When we are gossipy
about other people,
the listeners can look down on us. So why are we
gossipy about other people?

45. Do you love nature?


Why not. I truly love nature. All kinds of beings
cannot live without nature. We can’t live without
water.
We can’t be alive without trees. Vincent Van Gogh
said “if you truly love nature, you will find beauty
everywhere”.
You know that nature is the best.
Not sure, I wanna know value of nature. Please
explain me how to love nature and why nature is
crucially important for beings.

16
46. Do you usually read every day?
Sure. I usually read every day. I have to read for my
school exam. I need to read for my life. Reading is a
good habit.
You know that today a reader, tomorrow a leader.
The more you read, the more you know.
We can get many advantages by reading.
By reading, we can get a lot of knowledge.
If we have a lot of knowledge, we will know how to
solve the problems. So, I like reading.

No, I don’t like reading. Reading is boring.


Whenever I read, I feel sleepy.
I like playing table tennis. I’m interested in sports.
In my opinion, we should read ourselves every day.
We should read our mind every day.

47. Do you like your job?


Sure, I do. My co-workers are very friendly.
They tell me how to do.
They show me what to do at work.
You know, I’m an employee in a publishing company.
I like reading and I admire writers. One of my dreams
is to become a writer. So I like my job. I would like to
say something else. You also need to love your job.
If you love your job, you will never feel tired. If you’re
fed up with your job, you will feel tired every day.
So, you need to choose your job that you love to
work.
Unfortunately, no. But you know, why I work here is I
need some money before I get a new job.
Now I’m trying to go abroad. I want to work there for
money. I don’t want to go abroad for good. I love my
mother land deeply with my heart.

49. Do you think it’s important to understand each
other?
Of course. It’s important to understand each other.
If we don’t understand each other, we cannot get a
good relationship. If we don’t understand each other,
we can misunderstand each other. It’s not good for
us.
If we misunderstand each other, we can’t be happy
to live together. If we are not happy, life is
meaningless.

18
No, no, no, I don’t think so. Understanding is limited.
You know my wife, your friend. I know that she is
having an affair with one of her old friends.
I tell her not to do like that. But she doesn’t listen to
me.
So, don’t be too sure for everything.
Don’t forget everything is changing all the time.

apologize to her? Actually, they’re right. She’s wrong.
I don’t want them to apologize to her.

finish.

know who he is. He also doesn’t know who I am. I
don’t know where he lives. He also doesn’t know
where I live.

doesn’t know what my phone number is. I mean we
don’t know each other. So he doesn’t invite me to
come to his birthday party.

parents love me as their daughter. So she usually
looks forward to seeing me and I also look forward to
seeing her.
No, she doesn’t look forward to seeing me because
she doesn’t know me and I don’t know her. But I

with his family.

No, he doesn’t get up and go for a run in the
