I mistransliterated the name of the street and the market. It should be Phlab Waan, not Phalab Wan. The reason why a name like Phlab ends up being spelled as Plub is because decades and decades ago someone used a phonetic alphabet to transliterate Thai words into English words. Transliterate means converting the sound of one language into the alphabet of another language.

 

For example, Chantaburi means 'city of the moon' and is spelled จันทบุรี. 'จ' is the letter 'jaaw jan' which is how Thais memorize the alphabet (similar to A is for apple), and is actually pronounced J as in the word 'jay' in English. But using a phonetic alphabet, 'จ' is represented as //ch// which is faithful to a phonetic alphabet, but would cause many English speakers to pronounce Chantaburi like the word 'chant' in English even though the Thai (and correct) pronunciation is more like 'Jantaburi."

 

In the case of ' plub' in the name Soi Nern Plub, even though it is transliterated as Plub, it is definitely not pronounced 'plub' but rather 'plab' even though I imagine locals in Pattaya might have become used to people pronouncing it the way it appears on street signs, Google Maps, and elsewhere.
