Anyone able to assist with the translations of the 2 above words and when they are appropriate to use? Thanks

The meaning and thus the translation of a word or a phrase often depends on the context in which it is used. In what context did did you read or hear them?

Say a ladyboy was trying to grab you on the street and you wanted them to f*** off, would saying any of those 2 words be ok or would it be too "rude"?

This Thai language forum is completely dead. Guess not many people on Aseannow know much Thai

You want to tell a ladyboy to "f*** off". Good luck with that!

 

Both of those phrases can aggressive enough to p*** somebody off to the point of escalation.

 

Just use a firm ไม่เป็นไรครับ. If that doesn't work then try following up with ไม่เป็นไรจริงๆ.

 

But your best bet is to just not engage at all. When they grab you, keep on walking. If they talk to you don't answer. Any kind of acknowledgment is only going to prolong the situation.

Ok, thanks for the explaination.

Least said , soonest mended.

 

Walk on , walk on , with a mince in your step , and you'll never walk alone. You'll never walk alone.

 

Not in Pattaya anyway.

Any of these should work and just keep walking.

 

มีแฟนแล้วครับ
mee faen láew kráp
I have girlfriend/boyfriend already

 

The simplest:

ไม่เอาครับ
mâi ao kráp
I don't want, not interested

Also works good for tuk tuks etc.

 

What I would say. Using kráp twice, at the end of each phrase, keeps it very civil only a real jerk would continue to harass:
ไม่เอาครับ มีแฟนแล้วครับ
mâi ao kráp, mee faen láew kráp

Don't teach people bad words. They might use it and get problems.
