    That is how I stay interested in the world Ryan. On my I pad . Since I have reduced mobility at 88. That is also why I love your channel . I have been to Schotland and Ireland. I came from Holland 40 years ago to marry my Canadian in California. Still Dutch. Demo is doing great on camera ! I love to see her with the kids ! So sweet. Thanks for your fascinating channel !

    Once you actually start learning and speaking it, you'll realize that it's much simpler than many other languages, and there are many things about the Thai language that actually makes it much easier to speak than many of the other so-called "difficult languages." And The Thai language is the official language of Thailand and so used in everyday use by around 69 million people in this southeastern Asian nation. Thai is actually the most common dialect used by people in eastern and central Thailand. That's the 5 Great Reasons Why It's Worth Learning the Thai Language. I love your own opportunity by making your loved ones feels more understanding your Thai language information how and why you're using Thai language to her more than 10 years.

      It’s actually a lot more difficult in Buriram as Khmer is quite commonly used as well as Laos depending on where you are but yes they also speak Thai as well but I really struggle with the dialect / accent in Buriram more than I do in say Bangkok.

    Before I lived in Thailand I was used to going to the supermarket every 2 weeks and stock up on food. Here (Isan) that just isn't possible so now I just go to the market every other day or use the village mobile "food" truck that drives around selling meat/vegetables daily.
    At first I tried Lotus/Big C but it doesn't work like that (my wife would want to go to the Market the next day even though we just buy food lol) They just live life day by day, and there’s nothing I can do to change that.
    Now I go to the big stores once or twice a month to get cleaning supplies and other "western" products (maybe some cheese or wine) you can’t find locally. But food it’s better/healthier to buy locally. Anything more high end or specific you can get it online (Lazada) or bigger stores. Living in Isan It’s like living in 2 Worlds (the local outside your house and then your own World inside ).

    Yes, shopping locally is a big part of my simple philanthropy to the working Thais here. I have friends who actually go to the bigger markets to save money, yet they have transportation, which as you know costs money for gas and all. Great for a family, but unnecessary for single expats IMO. Many Chinese tourists here now are all buying durian, also very good for the local Thai vendors. Hope you got some rain this week like we did here in Chonburi, still too hot most days, but getting better. As always, Peace and Love Y'all
    PS, I love to browse the "vintage" junk sellers at the market 555

  • @villagefarang
    @villagefarang 5 месяцев назад +1

    Do you have a reason for using the wrong A sound in your Thai pronunciation? Could it be related to the way people speak English where you are from? I get that the word Farang is commonly mispronounced so when talking with other foreigners it might seem easier to use the wrong A sound to aid understanding with people who also use that form. It is the same with words like "island" which is universally mispronounced by foreigners. But when you are speaking with Thai people wouldn't it be more appropriate to use the correct A sound? I guess I am assuming you can hear the difference. I have commented before so I hope you know I am not trying to wind you up.🙏

    • @lifeinruralthailand
      @lifeinruralthailand  5 месяцев назад +2

      It could be but which word are you referring to? If it’s only farang it’s because I say it that way out of habit - I do the same with a pattaya. I think those two words have something to do with how I visualize them in English when I say them. But maybe you are referring to a different word here

      @villagefarang 5 месяцев назад

      @@lifeinruralthailand Pretty much every word spelled with the vowel ๅ you pronounce with the แอะ sound. At least that is how it sounds to me. Changing the vowel can change the word. Three and the classifier, for example, were pronounced this way.

    Last week she won 145000 baht.
    She sees numbers or dreams a number and she will tell me she will win.
    I laugh because i never win.
    She used my birhday age and the year born. She won 45000 baht and two weeks later win 45000 baht for my year born.
    Thai's can be obsessed with lucky numbers but i suppose each culture has there own way.
