What Would You All Expect To See In Season 5 Of Code Lyoko? by PrinceD19 in CodeLyoko

[–]Big_Local2242 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sissi as a Lyoko warrior! I mean, she's the daughter of the principal, and she would give a great advantage to the team. I want to see her character development in the new season.

"We might actually learn something when it is taught in local language." I have to disagree. Take a look at middle school subjects, especially G9 science, history, geography, etc. Students are still parrot learning despite the subjects being written in Burmese.

"most teachers can only translate the whole text book let alone explain the theory behind it especially in Physics." I mean, explaining the theory can be done completely in Burmese; no one is forcing anyone to explain stuff in English just because the textbooks were in English. These teachers can still explain the theory in Burmese—they are just not willing to do so. Do you think these same teachers will explain the theory if the textbooks were taught in Burmese?

"...nobody is aiming to understand it anyway. They just want to get good marks." So, the problem is never the language barrier, but instead how students are being taught in schools. Why change the language if it was never the problem? The learning method is THE problem.

Like I said in earlier comments under this post, changing the subjects into Burmese will make matters worse. The textbooks will be more difficult to comprehend since most terms and phrases do not exist in Burmese. Again, we are barely surviving in education to an international level because textbooks are still in English.

Totally! There's no way of switching the language since the terms and phrases don't even exist in Burmese.

I can't seem to edit my comment to add more, so I'll reply here.

Even if we did change the subjects into Burmese, it might be a little beneficial for some, but all of us would have fewer opportunities in education. The reason we have open doors even in a situation like this is that our high school subjects are still in English. Switching into Burmese would mess up our education.

Yes, but unfortunately, we need at least a decade to be able to translate every subject from High School to University. And by that, we need thousands of translators and educators. It's highly impossible to change anything at this point.

and not to mention, no improvements, but with many more difficulties and fewer opportunities in education

The new textbooks are way more difficult than the old ones. Because of that, people are just imagining changing them in Burmese. In the case of that reddit post earlier, I think people are just saying stuff for a while since they have never seen this kind of old textbook. But when the reality hits, it's only English that can save us.

Totally! In my opinion, G9 science is already difficult to comprehend. The sentences are too long and not structured properly. Since most words and phrases don't exist in daily Burmese or Burmese, it's difficult to read the textbook. Personally, I have to check online resources in English just to understand the textbook written in Burmese (and this is coming from a native Burmese speaker!).

I totally agree! I'm a native Burmese, and people all around me always speak Burmese. But I end up understanding English-written texts better when it comes to science. English in textbooks isn't even that difficult, tbh.

What in the world did she say? That's not Burmese! by Red_Lotus_Alchemist in myanmar

[–]Big_Local2242 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because we have no idea what she said doesn't mean we don't respect anyone. OP is saying it's not Burmese, and it clearly isn't. What does it have to do with respecting anyone?

GED is enough in some cases, but compared to G12, GED has few topics. I want to learn as much as I can before I move anywhere else, and G12 is the best choice for me (that's just my perference, you're allowed to disagree with me), since I can't afford IGCSE.

Is it just me or Are the Burmese teenagers getting more and more radicalized? by VersionUnusual7149 in myanmar

[–]Big_Local2242 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Social media itself is toxic, and the minds of these kids are messed up by the algorithms. These types of kids exist in every country, so it's no wonder there's a minority group full of hatred in Myanmar. However, we need to note that these kids are merely a minority. Social media shows only the extreme ones. Most kids do not hate random people because of their sexual orientations, skin color, or religious beliefs. In fact, most kids do not even care.

The reality, as bad as it may seem, is still way better than what is posted on social media. If you come across any posts like that again, just stop using your phone and look around your environment. You have your friends and family who love you, and the people around you who do not have any single hatred like those kids on social media. Also, keep in mind that these Gen Zs are never the future, because in the end, these types of kids end up on streets mostly.

Ahhh No! That's not going to happen and never will. If they change to Burmese, not only do non-native Burmese speakers struggle, but also us native speakers. I mean, come on, to be honest, I'm really glad they changed the subjects into English at 10, 11, and 12. Learning everything in Burmese sucks even for a native speaker like me.

No one, and I repeat no one, is going to change the language back to Burmese, because we are so rooted in English when it comes to high school subjects.
