January 4, 200521 yr I have heard the term "long daeng" quite often relating to alcohol. Would I be right in thinking it translates as cold turkey, or dt's?
January 4, 200521 yr The literal meaning is that you're experiencing withdrawal symptoms or severe craving. It doesn't have to always refer to alcohol, as you can also use it jokingly to refer to the craving for things like playing games, gambling, sex, or anything similar that you haven't got to do lately.

Cheers Michael I had to drag my wife away from a roulette table once, she was very unhappy, I guess a type of "long daeng". I would be careful when using this phrase as when I have used it jokingly a couple of work colleagues looked at me a strange way, asking how I knew this term. You can guess the type of friends I have had
