This was a really funny thread, especially the “Hanging out with Hookers” theory.

Here’s the reason why the Thais in Isan don’t say R: They speak Lao, which has no R. Comprende?

Should you say R? Why don’t you do as many Thais. Pronounce correctly if you're in an official kind of setting; skip it if you're just hanging out.

The more common the word, the easier to skip the R. The most common word (for guys…) is Krap. Almost nobody pronounces the R in everyday talk.

The Swedish owners of the last attempt at a ferry service (Thailiving Ferry) quit Dec 14 last year, at the start of High Season…

They’ll be kicking themselves now, when they read this, 2 trillion.

Sarcasm and satire.. don’t bother. But forget the nitnoy. พูดได้บ้าง
