Gecko Hunting

Featured Replies

I've just finished adding English subtitles to a Thai TV program about a village in Nakhon Pathom where there is a flourishing Gecko trade. Some of the subtitles might be wrong, because I didn't understand everything they say, but I think they are more or less faithful to the original. I hope some of you might find it useful for some listening practice. You can turn the captions off if you want. Feel free to criticize or correct my translations and enjoy it.

Thanks for posting that! Wow, haven't had a chance to listen real close as the wife screaming and hiding behind me was too entertaining. (She has "The Fear"!) She tolerates our resident tokays but the clip just had a few too many of them to handle!

I hate those things, along with toads and cockroaches.

The subtitles aren't appearing for me.

Oh got it now. Had to turn on the captions in the options.

Well gecko hunters haha make alot of money tho u know. u see those kids and their geckos? it starts from 5 baht (har baht) 10 baht (sib baht) it depends big or small then they sell gecko to factory in town as u see on vid the workers get only gecko skin then put in oven bleh smell like bbq? then they export to Taiwan, HK, China and some other places u know why? haha it increases sexual so another choice apart from viagra. this business is going well esp in northeast of thailand they do.
