Welcome to Teak Door.

I'm sure a question or two will pop up in the coming weeks.

My first one is, how do you say...

"I wish I could fly, right up to the sky, but I can't"?

Thetyim · 26-08-2008, 07:02 PM

Thank you, Ae and welcome to Teakdoor

pai nai ma · 26-08-2008, 07:05 PM

Ae, Welcome to Teakdoor. Would you be willing to change your new banner ad to a slightly darker blue to match the current TD motif?

Camel Toe · 26-08-2008, 07:31 PM

None of my students speak English, they are 6 and there are 53 per class. Oddly they don't behave very well with me. But if a Thai person walks in the room they all go hush. I don't mean a Thai teacher person, or the director himself, it could be the gardener.

I've formed the habit of throwing the bad boys out into the halls were they are to sit till the class finishes. Lately I noticed they've run away as soon as I turn my back.

You're a teacher too, you must know how to handle something like this. My question is how do you say, "You're an animal, your parents never educated you because their parents never educated them. If you move from this very spot I'll chain you to the wall."

MTL ae · 26-08-2008, 07:31 PM

Nice to meet you Mr. Bobcock.
It's my pleasure tell you in Thai

"chan wang yaak ja bin, bin kheun soo thorng faa..., dtae bpen bpai mai dai"
"ฉันหวังอยากจะบิน บินขึ้นสู่ท้องฟ้า... แต่เป็นไปไม่ได้"

Hope my little help can make you smile

Hi Ae

good to see offers of assistance

JoGeAr · 26-08-2008, 07:40 PM

Hi Kroo Ae and welcome. I'm sure your skills will come in very handy at times here.

MTL ae · 26-08-2008, 08:05 PM

.................................................. .................................................. ....

Hmm, I see . It's hard to handle many people from different family especially when they are in the same place (unfortunately...in your place)

However, my experience in teaching (both child and adult) taught me that sometime we should keep our desire or what we wanna say deeply inside if that make someone hurt, especially to our student.

In additional, I can answer your question in cases that you face with the difficult word, word by word, and I hope that you'll understand.

lucky with your work, Kroo Ae

Camel Toe · 26-08-2008, 08:09 PM

Thank you.

justwingit · 26-08-2008, 08:17 PM

^^thats an interesting response/answer

Smeg · 26-08-2008, 08:36 PM

I have one.

As Thai language is quite childlike in nature, do Thais see English language as being all serious and grown up?

dirtydog · 26-08-2008, 08:39 PM

There are different levels of Thai langauge smeggy, not all talk like the slag dogs you generally meet

Camel Toe · 26-08-2008, 08:41 PM

And why do some people shout kwai and kwaai at me? Are those the same in meaning?

pai nai ma · 26-08-2008, 08:42 PM

Isn't slagdog one word?

Because they know you?

No idea, you would have to find a proper TEFLer to answer that one, yet another question in Thailand that will never be answered

Smeg · 26-08-2008, 08:49 PM

What is an exact translation of "farang", and why do Thai people use this word so much to place focus onto people's ethnic appearance when doing so serves no purpose?

A tattoo idea perhaps, CT.

With a little seahorse of course.

Hi, Kru Ae.

Welcome to the board. I'm doing a lot of studying so I'll probably ask you some questions at some point. Thanks in advance!
