Lucky's Phrases

[BkkShaggy]

Shagster, yer right. I did not really read this post that closely before. But wouldn't อั���ม have a very bad connotation? Like "play with her tits without permission?"

 

Just extrapolating, since I don't know of a meaning for อัà¹?à¸? on its own, but doesn't à¹Âà¸?à¹?ะอัà¹?à¸? (dtae-ang) mean "rape?" What does just à¹Âà¸?à¹?ะ mean? Anything?

 

Cheers,

SD

 

Never heard of อั���ม too.

But dtae-ang (à¹Âà¸?à¹?ะอัà¹?à¸?) dean't mean rape for sure. It is a verb meaning "touch a woman/girl with sexual purposes". For example, a guy à¹Âà¸?à¹?ะอัà¹?à¸? a girl by acting unintentaionally on Songkran day.

 

Note that it is only "touch", not more than that.

 

I think it comes from a Chinese word. But asked a Thai friend who has a Chinese blood he doesn't have any clue, at least, not from Cantonese.

à¹Âà¸?ะ dtae(l) short low tone, no tone marker

 

dtae!(l)and dtae!(l)-dtawng(f) both mean TO TOUCH

 

ang® nom I have seen several times in movie subtitles, but I take this as slang since it can't be found in any dictionary. Have not been able to get confirmation from a Thai.

Sam-pad = สัม�ัส also means "to touch"

It's funny sometimes to see how they translate English into Thai subtitle. Sometimes it is not accurate to a fault. Fortunately (or unfortunately) I haven't seen the word à¹Âà¸?à¹?ะอัà¹?à¸? translated in any movies. But most of the Thais I've asked around believe that the word comes from Chinese as the sound of it indicated so.

 

Still I've tried to find the word from Thai online dict.

but there is not such word in it. So I guess it is a slang but very popularly used for a long time now.

Well, if dtae(h) means to touch and ang® means breast, then to touch the breasts could logically be "to take liberties with".

 

[luckyfarang]

My further research indicates that:

 

dtae!(l) ang® and also

 

dtae!(l) nit(h) dtae!(l) nawy(l) mean "to feel a girl up"

 

and

 

luang(f) gern means: to take liberties with, or to go too far
