The Burmese Language
- Burmese is natively known as မြန်မာစာ and belongs to the Sino-Tibetan, Tibeto-Burman, Lolo-Burmese language family.
- There are approximately 33 million native speakers worldwide.
- Burmese is the official language of Myanmar (Burma) and uses the Myanmar script, a rounded script descended from the Brahmi script of ancient India.
- The circular shapes of the Myanmar script are thought to have evolved because writing was traditionally done on palm leaves, where straight lines would tear the leaves.
- Burmese is a tonal language with four tones: low, high, creaky, and checked, each changing the meaning of otherwise identical syllables.
- The language has a complex system of honorifics and particles that indicate the speaker's social relationship to the listener, with different forms for monks, elders, and peers.
- Burmese script can also be used to write other languages of Myanmar, including Shan, Mon, and Karen, with additional characters.
- Myanmar-born Australians number over 40,000, with migration accelerating due to political persecution, the Rohingya crisis, and the 2021 military coup. Communities are concentrated in Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane, comprising diverse ethnic groups including Burmese (Bamar), Karen, Chin, Kachin, and Rohingya.
About Sunnybank
Sunnybank is now a suburb in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia much reduced in size from the previous suburb of Sunnybank. The separate Town of Sunnybank was absorbed into the City of Brisbane. This older Sunnybank area is still known locally as Sunnybank. Rolling hills and the headwaters for both Stable Swamp Creek and Bulimba Creek have drawn people and wildlife to the Sunnybank area. The Jagera Indigenous people were the first to inhabit the area well over 20,000 years ago.
Early settlers noticed the Sunnybank district was gifted with good rainfall and a beautiful loamy soil, somewhat sandy in character that produced beautiful displays of natural wild flowers. From the mid-19th century it developed into a farming area with prosperous fruit and poultry farms and gardens of every kind. Opening in 1938, The Oasis, with lush gardens, swimming pools and a mini zoo became Brisbane’s most popular tourist attraction. The Oasis was located at 141 Station Road, Sunnybank.
