Neeranam Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 I was asking a Thai for different words for carry. There are heaps! hew, teu, neeb,ham, baek, joong. I believe 'hew' is like to carry a briefcase. 'Teu' could be the same. 'Neeb' to carry something under the arm. 'Ham' like when two people are carrying something. 'Joong' like to pull at a child. 'Laak' to pull a trolley ie a golf cart, 'gae' in Isarn. 'Choo' to carry a plate like a waiter does. Any more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
