Thai box?

Was getting a language lesson from my Thai box last night and determined that there are at least three words for box in Thai:

klawng - small box

heep - box that closes with fasteners?

dtoo - larger box like a closet

I know there are many derivatives:

klawng sy cigar - cigar box

heep sy seu-uh - suitcase

dtoo sy seu-uh - clothes closet

dtoo sy gap kaow - cupboard

dtoo yen - refrigerator

She seemed to imply that a klawng could be carried while a dtoo could not. Needless to say I pointed out that I could probably carry a larger box than she could, so how was I to classify these intermediates? No point in describing her reaction.

Any insight into the various boxes here in Thailand?

I assume this is a typo and you meant 'dtoo yen'?

'dtoo yet' would be what? Fuck box?"

There are fuck boxes. Didn't Boris Becker knock up that Russian model in a "broom cupboard" in a Japanese restaurant in London? These conveniences should be installed in every restaurant in Bangkok! Forthwith!
