See CRICOS-registered alternativesThis subject builds on skills learned in Burmese 3 and students will have ample opportunities to review, exercise, and expand their knowledge of the spoken style of Burmese. A variety of listening comprehension materials including business negotiations and basic discussions on academic topics will encourage the development of students' speaking skills. Students will learn the basic rules of literary-style Burmese and appropriate vocabulary, some of which are drawn from Pali and Sanskrit. The subject contents will help students gain access to authentic Burmese materials in both print and online platforms such as newspapers, magazine articles, governmental documents, encyclopaedia entries, dictionaries, and excerpts from literary works. The topics include Myanmar history, economics, anthropology, mythology, and practical conversations such as negotiations and problem-solving in business. These topics deepen students’ understanding of Myanmar culture and society. Students will write Burmese compositions and speech scripts in spoken-style Burmese on both the assigned topics and the research topics of their interest in Myanmar. The subject often invites Burmese native speakers and Myanmar specialists as guests, to enhance students’ Burmese speaking abilities and exposure to the language. Students will give presentations to the guests, based on the topics covered in the subject. This subject is ran via face-to-face video at a set time prescribed by the University.
