meadish_sweetball Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Be careful when pronouncing the Thai word for lemongrass if you are not sure about vowel lengths or how to pronounce the tones right. You may end up talking about a 'horny grandfather' or 'horny eyes' ตาไคร่ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
