ow pen waa, waa dtair waa. meanings???

เอาเป็นว่า and ว่าเเต่วา

I hear these two phrases a lot, but cant get a good translation for them, even from thais with fluent english.
The first is translated as "in conclusion", the second phrase is translated in dictionaries as "anyway", but they seems to have other meanings too.

Can anyone help.

dta waa is 'but'

ow pen waa kind of depends on the context but its like imploring that you do something, or saying you should do this.

Maybe the experts have a better translation.

Pack your stuff and leave now Tax - you're in grave danger.

Open the door?

'anyway, but this way's better'

เอาเป็นว่า I would say is ' takes it that '

Khao ow pen wa dtam rooat kong my sonjy chooay khao

He takes it that the police probably won't be interested in helping him

ว่าเเต่วา

Khao wa thai wa khao my sonjy kadtee nee

He says only that he is not interested in this case

Here you go;
เอาเป็นว่า

ว่าแต่ว่า

Pretty much when those words are in those constructs they ALWAYS mean the definitions I provided.. They're what I'd call "phrozen-phrazez", insofar as they are used without any variation, all the time..

thanks.
