Etymology[edit]
Calque of Jingpho chyeju kaba sai (“thank you”, literally “the kindness has been big”). Compare Lhao Vo Jeju qi: va" and Zaiwa Jezhu gvo be.
Pronunciation[edit]
Phrase[edit]
Usage notes[edit]
No sementical difference is known between two forms, therefore it likely only depends on speakers. Tone sandhi between two latter syllables is also optional; the original rising tone of kɔ̠³⁵ (“big”) is preserved here.
