Thai For Beginners - Lesson 1


MooNoi

Recommended Posts

If you're female you can say 'pai det dawkmai'...going to pick some flowers.

 

It is "pai Geb dawkmai". :)

 

geb or kep à¹?à¸Âà¹?à¸? is pick up and collect or gather, harvest (rice).

 

det ���� is pick as in pluck or pinch off (flowers). Much funnier in the context.

Very good initiative for a thread Khun Moo Noi... but it only had legs for 4 days. :dunno:

 

With trip # 3 less than a week away (the experienced veteran that I am), some additional Thai language basics over and above the 'chok dees', the 'aroy maaks' and the 'falang mau maak maaks' wouldn't go amiss.

 

Howz aboutz... "The knife to the throat I don't have a problem with Sir, but could I please ask you to move your foot just a little, you're standing on my small toe".

 

Or "Well, you see doctor, I woke up this morning in a pool of blood with a thumping great hangover, and I've got this pain in my back... around about where my kidneys usually are".

 

:beer:
