  2. But pronunciation is the same in both instances. So the observation that some do not know the difference is only relevant to written English not in spoken English, which is the subject of this thread.
  3. Is that a load of ballocks or the dog's ballocks?
  4. Because that is written English not spoken English. In spoken English theirs no difference.🤔
  5. Worst case scenario. 30% of the landed cost (value of the item plus shipping cost, post, courier) Plus 7% Even worse case. Add 200 baht for FedEx handling fee.

  7. Macro is either the incorrect pronunciation or the misunderstanding of a farang.
  8. Backhoe is what North Americans call a JCB somehow it has slipped into Thai. I suppose in the same way that some Melanesians speak pidgin

  10. Surely you mean a backhoe. Even most Thais call it that. 🤔

  12. Yes. Everything in life is someone else's responsibility.🤔
  13. Hey I resemble that remark.🤔 Medan was OK for me. I'm not truly a beach person.
  14. I will be impressed when I see a solar panel factory that runs exclusively on solar power.
  15. One is a single the other is a twin. Chalk and cheese.
