Hi Stew,

 

that would be:

 

¹èÒàÊÕ´Òä

 

Nah Sia Daay.

 

 

Nah being the same prefix you use in a number of words, meaning "prone to be.....

"

Nah Beua ---boring

Nah Dteun Dten --- exciting

Nah Rak .... cute

Nah Gliat ... ugly

 

etc.

 

Cheers

Hua Nguu

guess what it is? = Tai see nee arai?

 

I have no context for this, when would this be said?

 

Also, how do u say just "guess what?"

(as in, i have some news to tell you? Reply "what?" answer, i just bought a new car...for example)

What does 'tan' mean? As in (if i remember correctly)

 

"Tan mai dai"

"Mai tan"

 

Heard this used alot recently at my school when talking about 'not being able to'??? Really not sure if this is right or not...

woops, no it is not eat, i believe it is a low tone, perhaps "dtan"? It was used when talking about not being able to teach cause it was getting late, and later about my WorkPermit...sorry, i'll have to catch another example later...

Allright,

According to what you wrote then it must mean "to make", or "to catch" in a time perspective. Like "tan mai dai" or the more common "mai tan"...

 

Like, hmm..."koehn rot mae mai tan"....I didnt catch the bus.

 

 

Does that make any sense?

;)

actually it means more like 'in time' so you get

'tam mai tan' -didn't do it in time

'yut mai tan'- didn't stop in time

'tan rot' - caught the bus in time
