BTW those who give nasty replies just go on your merry way Thanks bignok I certainly wasn’t being nasty. I haven’t read every post, but I haven’t seen anyone being nasty to you either. In person, there is more information; your tone of voice etc But in writing, there needs to be some rules. Otherwise it’s sometimes difficult to be clear about what you are trying to convey. No malice or unpleasant criticism involved. In your head, you know exactly what you are trying to say. But the way you have written it is confusing. @grain made a summary of what they understood, but you haven’t acknowledged that post, so we are none the wiser.

November 7, 20232 yr Author 2 hours ago, Will B Good said: I think you are saying Thais don't waste time on small talk?......Correct. I would say they don't do small talk and reserve their conversations for money, food and bitching about their neighbours. Will B good Yes, I was trying to explain that our Daughter-in-law who is Thai asked my wife questions relating to myself and do I say these things and yes my wife does in English. I was pointing out that our Grandchildren and friends also do they say good morning or good night and it appears they do not. Also, do they say please and thank you, but the latter they do either in Thai or English which of course is not their native tongue? Yes, I often state I love you and I get a reply from my lady likewise The point I was trying to make anything could happen in a minute to any of us and God forbid anything or killed on the roads or simply ill health, That was all and ignored those who were posting and giving me their "expert" opinion Thanks for your post

I try and abide by this at all times, even if I believe I'm in the right. I'll still mutter "sorry" under my breath.

I was trying to be helpful for you to be able to communicate better. I guess you are a bit sensitive and can't handle a weakness being pointed out? No, I'm not an English teacher There are a number of people who also mentioned that they had a hard time understanding your post. You should be able to get a clue from that, in order to grasp that you might try a bit harder. I honestly thought English is your second or third language. I believe it may be your first, now that I've read a bit more of the comments. That's some pretty astounding English for a native speaker! Maybe you were drunk? I guess there could be a number of reasons for such incredible syntax....
