World Languages A-Z: Burmese (မြန်မာဘာသာ)

"Burmese is a Sino-Tibetan language and the national language of Myanmar (formerly Burma, in English), where it is spoken natively by around 33 million people. There are also notable Burmese-speaking populations in Bangladesh, Malaysia, Thailand, and the U.S. Due to a large diaspora population, Burmese is a key language in the state of Indiana." -- IU Center for Language Technology. #IndyPLAdults "မြန်မာစကားသည် တရုတ်-တိဗက်မှဆင်းသက်လာသောဘာသာစကားဖြစ်ပီး မြန်မာပြည်၏ မိခင်ဘာသာစကားဖြစ်ကာ မြန်မာပြည်သူ ပြည်သား ဦးရေ ၃၃ သန်းပါတ်ဝန်းကျင်ခန်ု့ အသုံးပြုသောဘာသာစကားဖြစ်ပါသည်၊ ဘင်္ဂလားဒေ့ရှ်၊ မလေးရှား၊ ထိုင်း နှင့် အမေရိကန် တို့တွင်လဲ မြန်မာစကားပြောသောလူဦးရေသိသာထင်ရှားစွာရှိပါသည်၊ မြန်မာလူမျိုးများသည် နိုင်ငံတကာတွင်ရွှေ့ပြောင်းနေထိုင်ရာမှ အမေရိကန်နိုင်ငံ အင်ဒီယားနားပြည်နယ်တွင်လည်း အခြေချ နေထိုင်လျက်ရှိကြပါသည်၊ထို့ကြောင့် အင်ဒီယားနားပြည်နယ်တွင် မြန်မာဘာသာစကားသည် အဓိက ဘာသာစကားအဖြစ် အသုံးပြုလျက်ရှိပါသည်။. # IndyPLAdults
