  1. There you have it! You solved the problem. Gold Star!
  2. Not trying to justify anything, as I have no need to. However, you just told the world that you do more than sitting at the beach drinking beer. Good on you!
  3. Ok, but here we are talking Arabic Alphabet and Thai language. What you seem to not understand, is that English has not much to do with that, as many languages uses the Arabic Alphabet, and different languages will pronounce what you are on about in different ways. English speakers do not rule the world, even if you think so. That´s just a delusion.
  4. Ok, you are the professional. I just been here over 28 years and speak, read and write Thai fluently. But, maybe you are better. Go on boy!
  5. Does it matter?
  6. No, I did not forget it is predominately like you say, but you have differences, and the difference makes Ph most suitable. It´s possible to accept Pasa too, but not with double s.
  7. Ok, and even after your edit, you did not find Passa. You found Pasa and Phasa, right? That /Passa, your can just forget
  8. Just another moron, in the line of degenerates.
  9. Yeah, I agree, that most countries have much of the same, but that´s just a fact word wide. What I was initially reacting on was people who posted that it´s just Mom & Pop shops, 7Elevens and Soi dogs. I was also reacting on people that just waiting for the next day at the beach and the beers. It´s very narrow thinking. There are a lot to see in Thailand, and great variation too. Sure, after a while you´ve seen it, and it´s not so much urge to go look for more. But, as you say, when that sets in, then there are always places you want to re-visit. On the other, after more than 28 years, travelling a lot, I still occasionally find new places as well. One of the greatest things is if you find a place not so far away in rural Thailand, that you never saw or thought of before. As you also say, that´s my thoughts.
  10. Pedantic??? What sound closest to the right sound in Thai. Passa Thai or Phasa Thai. Thai is a language depending very much on how the words you speak sound. But, if you say so. You are probably the professional.
  11. So, in your world, that equation makes it more to see in Russia, right? Good luck!
  12. Yeah, it seems to be much that is a foreign concept to you. Apparently understanding of that different people learn different ways is one of the many. However, I am done with you. Totally fruitless conversation. But it was nice that you showed your excellence in Thai by writing passa Thai. Sounds a little bit like an amateur to me. First it´s: ภาษาไทย (After that, you should have been writing Phasa Thai as that is the equivalent in the Arabic Alphabet. Not a day without learning something new, Mr. Professor, right?
  13. No, that was never what I posted. When did I post that it was necessary to see every corner of the country? Do you always exaggerate this much? You know it´s quite far from only looking at soi dogs, 7 Elevens and Mom & Pop shops or waiting for Beach and beer every day, to seeing every corner of a country. So, might be a good idea to reconsider your post, and kind of make it more in line with reality.
  14. Totally agree! Also, after very long time exploring the country, I cannot for my life understand when people bring it down to only a few boring things to try and make it negative. in my opinion, Thailand is a country that has all. A great variety of things to do, see and interest yourself in. People that say it´s only soi dogs, 7 Elevens and Mom & Pop shops, can´t have been outside their own block. ;-) Or the ones who are only looking forward to the beach and the next beer. It´s extremely narrow in a country that has so much to give.
  15. Hmmm, ok, let´s sum this up. I started what that is related to you? Let´s see below. Ok above you have my reply to HappyExpat57, that you apparently get hook on. If so, then it must also be directly connected to you. And above is your answer. Above here you see my answer, as I don´t like to be called out for having rosy glasses after over 28 years in the country. What you need to understand, is that it is a personal feeling. Some people get easily bored, which means that they, after a while, don´t feel happy anywhere. Are you in that group? Is that why the comment below, telling me to give it a rest. Ok, I guess, give it a rest, didn´t work very well. My question here, if you are so content with beach and beer, which is a very narrow way of looking at things. How come you engage at all? I actually draw the conclusion out of your reaction, that you are as bored as HappyExpat57. In my opinion only have beach and beer to look forward to every day, is not much of a life. But, as I said, it´s personal, and that is just my personal view.
  16. Yeah, he gets the best answers talking and negotiate with himself. Actually, the only way for him to get any answer, as nobody sane want to talk to him at all.
  17. What is there to say, more than that they are right to complain and speak the truth. Far too many degenerates in Thailand nowadays.
  18. Oh dear, now it´s evidence talk again! No need, as I know many people, including myself, that has learned Thai in many different ways. They are getting along great, and there is no failure whatsoever. Just because you have a working concept for you, does not mean it´s the only way. Too many of you, know it all, guys here. Break your bubble, get out, smell the air and get some better insight of things.
  19. Yeah, good on you! Only a very naive and out of reality person would put real war and a world conflict together with a PL football match. Says all about you as usual.
  20. Wow! Yeah, my comment was based on over 28 years in the country. I guess that´s a very personal feeling, and it has nothing to do with your fancy well known rosy glasses comment. I only come down to what value you see and put on your life. I can read that you don´t sound very happy in Thailand.
  21. So, you checked out soi dogs, 7 Eleven´s and Mom & Pop shops? I guess you missed the scenery, nature, beaches, meeting genuine Thai people and so on for ever...... Sounds like awesome travelling. 😂
  22. Total group of cowards and losers! Thai´s gathering up! Hilarious! Looks like they do not know how throw a punch anyway. The Japanese guy if still standing after 20-30 punches. Thai style soft punch! 😂 They just made a total joke out of themselves again!
  23. What a man. Coming 60 years later and feel the need to connect! Where was he when it was time to take responsibility for his actions? What a total loser! He should feel ashamed!
  24. Just out of curiosity. If 23 nightmare years, why wait so long before doing anything about it? Sounds like self-punishment. Looking at your profile, it looks like from the 28 of January, so just maybe the name change was right in the post you quoted. 😉
