Speak Burmese Myanmar is not the easy way. You will only get a few Speak Myanmar Burmese greeting words "Mingalapa! Naykaunglar!" "Hello! How are you?"
Myanmar people like to say yes and nod their head whatever you said. But you can't guess whether they understand you completely or not. The "yes yes" people who answer you but have not a clue of what you are talking about. The same happen with some Myanmar locals who approach you offering their help but forgot that their English is very poor. Anyway, as a whole, you will always find help from an English speaking friendly Myanmar guy. But it is always helpful if you know a few Burmese words and how to speak Myanmar Burmese to communicate Burmese Myanmar people.
