"That doesn't make sense!"

"Hi,

What does the word samoer "àÊÃÃ" mean in your last example? I thought it means "always" as in "¼ÃÃÑ¡¤Ø³àÊÃÃ", or I love you always..."

 

Yes, right, but it can also mean 'consistenly' or 'permanence' of some kind which is conceptually related to always. In this example the dictionary gives the translation as "whatever he does...". This to me implies permanance. So, I guess you could add.. 'whatever he does is sensible always'.. but not really necessary, what do you think?

"reuang nee pen pai mai dai leuy" (àÃ×èç¹Õéà»ç¹ä»äÃèä´éàÅÂ) does indeed make sense as nonsense.

 

Do you mean this is wrong? If so, how?

ff, you are correct here, àÊÃà has different meanings.

Another meaning is "equal", "even" or "tied" in a game

 

It can also be a verb, meainig something like "to support" or "to be equal with".

 

àÊÃà can mean always, but is a slightly different alsways than µÅô

¼ÃÃÑ¡¤Ø³àÊÃà is often used when the perosn one loves has made a mistake, or when there has been an argument.

It then implies than one still loves equally as before.

Hi Pharcyde,

 

Everytime I`ve heard thai peope use Samoer in the sense of meaning a tie the add the word Gan. Samoer Gan.

The example you provide could easily be misinterpreted unless it is very clear from context what your are referring to.

IMO.

 

Cheers

Hua Nguu
