มะเหง็ก

Recommended Posts

I hear มะเหง็ก a lot in the office, I know it's meaning is something similar to "idiot,fool" or perhaps "you are foolish", it's not negative, I've only used it and heard it used in a joking friendly manner. Not in my dictionaries though, and was wondering what you folks thought. Slang? I am in the south.
