Burmese loanwords from Pali primarily take four forms:
Direct loan: direct import of Pali words with no alteration in orthography
"life": Pali ဇီဝ jiva → Burmese ဇီဝ jiva
Abbreviated loan: import of Pali words with accompanied syllable reduction and alteration in orthography (usually by means of a placing a diacritic, called athat အသတ် (lit. "[sound] killer") atop the last letter in the syllable to suppress the consonant's inherent vowel[26]
"karma": Pali ကမ္မ kamma → Burmese ကံ kam
"dawn": Pali အရုဏ aruṇa → Burmese အရုဏ် arun
"merit": Pali ကုသလ kusala → Burmese ကုသိုလ် kusuil
Double loan: adoption of two different terms derived from the same Pali word[25]
Pali မာန māna → Burmese မာန [màna̰] "arrogance" and မာန် [màɴ] "pride"
Hybrid loan (e.g., neologisms or calques): construction of compound words that combine native Burmese words to Pali words or combine Pali words[27]
"airplane": လေယာဉ်ပျံ [lè jɪ̀ɴ bjàɴ], lit. "air machine fly", ← လေ (native Burmese, "air") + ယာဉ် (from Pali yana, "vehicle") + ပျံ (native Burmese word, "fly")
