This made me laugh. I keep smiling when I think of this... Has anyone heard this line before?
One of my Thai friends was trying to teach me a few words of Thai the other day and he kept giggling every time I tried to pronounce words...
"Hi hi hi... you speak like a BABY! When you speak Thai... it sound like a BAAABY! Same when I speak English it like a BAAAAABY! When Thai people speak English it sound like a Baaaaaby!" :hah:
I don't know... it was just a hilarious conversation. One of those funny, charming things you get out of Thai guys.
I guess when we try to speak Thai, it's like when they first try to speak English and the "Tinglish" accent is still strong so we sound... like a baaaaby! LOL
:party
