zen4dummies Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 When my girlfriend talks to her family in a village near Amnat CHaroen she says "eh, eh, eh" quite a bit and in the Wikitravel Lao phrase item that means "Yes" (eur). Wikitravel is a handy thing to know about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julian2 Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Yup. If it's Lao, it's "koy" = I / my. Thus: "Thank you for checking my profile." It can also mean penis but I didn't want to encourage him or raise false hopes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
