And thats all it is laziness. Same with Brits who say 'Wiv' instead of With. No big deal I guess....until it interferes with clarity of communication as seems to be the cases with the OP referencing a non existent area of Bangkok which caused people genuine confusion... Mai pen Rai! Bet Thai folks know where Pah kano is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Dwyer Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 In English, ph is digraph which makes the f sound. So it’s Fra Kanong?You should probably steer clear of Phuket ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say Loi Et or LA, Bulilam, Pha Kanong, Talat Poooo, Tawn Low....I probably speak place names like a rice farmer Shouldn't that be lice farmer? It sounds like you have a good head for livestock.

I blocked my face out so you dont recognize me. I don't believe you. That's far too goodlooking to be you. I also remember a photo of you with a Vietnamese chick, who obviously had no taste.

Which is why one learns to read Thai script. Transliteration of Thai is next to worthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
