Talk:Comparison of Lao and Thai

False cognates?
Is the section header supposed to read "False friends"? --Paul_012 (talk) 20:55, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

Curation
Just wondering, why did this page and Comparison of Lao and Isan not get curated after close to two months? They still do not show up in Google. --Glennznl (talk) 09:02, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
 * This page is still in the NPP queue, where there is currently a large backlog. Polyamorph (talk) 09:29, 24 September 2021 (UTC)

ไอ้บ้า, "ai ba" (/ʔâj baː/) means "son of a b1tch"?
Hi, I was just passing through this page on the way down the rabbit hole. As a Thai speaker I feel like "ai ba" these days is not as strong as "son of a b!tch" in English. While it literally means "you're crazy", it's not exactly that... although I think it does mean that sometimes.

Maybe "you idiot" is closer? "Dammit" probably works as well in my opinion... as in ไอ้บ้าเอ๊ย "ai ba oey". Well, "son of a b!tch" in English works as a similar expression as well, not just an insult, so I don't really know. Unidentified.yama (talk) 02:50, 3 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Agree with Unidentified.yama's comments, but better referencing is needed either way. --Paul_012 (talk) 06:50, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
