    Doubt it, machines are out there, even Samsung...My cheapy Samsung is now 10 years old and used a lot.....:smile:

    Mine is a Samsung, less than 6000 bahts , 6 and a half years old; my only problem now is that when I plug it, there is a small electric shock and it doesnt' start anymore ; do you think it's reparable ( electric problem ) or better to have a new one ? ; look at Lazada,  between 6500 and 8000, a lot of choice ; Samsung, LG, Toshiba 

  3. Hello, 

     

    I need to buy a new washing machine, about 6500 bahts, no need a dryer, here sun outside is enough

    I have a Samsung, but now it's getting old 

    which brand do you recommend ? there are  many clothes to wash here , and I need a reliable brand ; Samsung again, LG , Toshiba ...?

    at least 7.5 kgs contenance 

     

    thank for your advice 

     

  4. Hello, 

     

    sometimes, I like to look at boxing on youtube, muay thai also, but for thaiboxing I noticed that even if for me the farang wins, it's always at the end the Thai who wins

    I just looked at this ( 

     

    and for me the farang wins 100%, but no, it's the Thai who wins ; am I wrong or is it unsefull to fight because we know the Thai will be declared winner ?

    What do you think ?

    Kabin buri is a district.

     

    Si Maha Phot is both a district and a tambon, (not a city or town).

     

    Si Mahosot is also a district, (though there are the ruins of an ancient city there).

     

    What you call a city obviously bears no resemblance to what Thailand calls a city,

     

    you are right, I speak like a farang, for me a place with police, hospitals, schools and so on  is a city ;

    not so important  ; let's speak of school, and teaching english , or we " ll be out of topic

    There is not a single city or town in your province (Prachinburi) with a population as low as 8,000.

    It's out of context, but what do you call a city ? schools, markets, pharmacies, doctors, bus, banks, cars and motobikes sellers etc , it's not a city ? 

    Kabin buri , Srimahaphot,  Sri mahasot are cities for me, for Thai adminstration they are tambon 

  7. Believe me or not, one month ago, I was at a Lotus express parking ( in a small city, 8000 inhabitants, rural aera ) , and I see a Thai woman in uniform, approching me ; she asked my nationality ( I am French ), if I can speak Thai ( yes  I do , and read too ) and she asked me if I am interested to teach English in her school ; I answered that  I have no experience in teaching  and taht English is not my language ; she answered, nevermind, we have French  people who teach English

    I said no, not interested, but it shows they are ready to take on anybody, whatever their level in English  is , the only important thing for them is to be farang 

    sad, I think

    My friend got back to me, but wasn't entirely helpful. She said:

    น่ากิน คือ looks good
    น่าอร่อย คือ delicious

    Oh, well. I feel at least better that the differences are so subtle that I didn't do harm.

    Sent from my SM-G920P using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app
     

    I see a difference : น่ากิน คือ looks good   , it makes me want to eat ( from the view or the smell ) ; before the meal 

     

    น่าอร่อย คือ delicious ,  when I eat it,   I think  it's delicious ; during the meal 

     

    when you type " น่าอร่อย" in Google, you have a full page of it, it's not so rare ...

    My wife ordered a Nokia phone from Lazada for her dad and that was also a fake/knock-off. This you can tell by taking the back off and comparing pictures of the real one online (among other things).

    Thanks, I just checked my phone I bought from Lazada two weeks ago, among other things, the IMEI number (http://www.imei.info/)  , and the number corresponds with my phone, so it's not a fake , if it's a fake, the answer is " not valid "

    Well I hope this means that they improve their delivery system, their current delivery sub-contractor, Kerry Transport, seem to be unable to find anyplace smaller than the Hospital or Police Station in Muak Lek.

     

    I've stopped using them in despair. A great pity as they often have great offers.

    Bad luck for you, I have bought dozens of items with Lazada, I live in the sticks, they surely have my GPS coordinates because they know exactly where I live ; no need to phone any more 

    Fake goods with Lazada ? how Silurian knows that the SD card was a fake ?

    Don't forget your passport, and whilst you're at the branch correct your registered mobile number, an OTP is needed for many on-line transactions and you can't get it without your mobile.

     

     

    Yes, I just come back from my bank, everything is ok now, the girl was very helpful and did the job with her phone and mine,  and yes they had a wrong phone number, I don't know where it comes from 

    thanks for your help

    But now I see the confusion.

    They call the OTP a "one time password".

    You want to change your (permanent) password and get a message about a one time password :smile:

     

     

    Right, and the digits they gave me  are  not mine;

    anyway, I don't want an OTP,  just change my permanent password ;  better I go myself to my branch, as said Mac : change password normally is easy, but not with SCB 

  13. Hello, 

     

    I am client of SCB and I want to change my password, but I am not used to what they call OTP ( One time password ) 

    first, on the first page , I see " select mobile number to get OTP ", but it's impossible to write something here and, btw, what do they want I write ? 

    And second, suppose I receive an OTP, what is the use of it , I want a permanent time password ; from the OTP I can change this temporary number  to put a new permanent number instead ? 

    sorry to be stupid, but I am not smart all the time :smile:

    thanks 

  14. I think that KFC staff uses "รับประทาน " just to be polite with their customers , it's a formal word but I hear it sometimes by people who just want to be polite , nothing special here

    3. Some Sanskrit/Pali pronunciation are changed because Thai can't pronounce those sounds.

    Eg. English 'ball' is pronounced as 'Born' in Thai.

     

    They can't pronounce it because they are not used to it, if they want they can do it , after some training 

    it's a rule, consonnants ending with " L " at the end are pronounced with " N " , English word or not 

     

    above, I agree with Oxx
