Hi Martyn, Lump away. I don’t mind at all as I’m the one getting the intellectual upgrade. This lesson is indeed useful and there are many more to come. A month’s worth. And then I’ll have to see about nudging Rikker for more :-)

Rikker/Catherine – Sorry to group you together like that but glancing back you really do look compatible. I have come across thuk (every) before and do use it in conversation. Young Wilai eats som tum each day, regular as clockwork and instead of calling it som tum I often say to her ‘Now you must go make thuk thuk wan pok pok’ in reference to her daily habit. Thang (all) is a new one to me but with my use of thuk under my wing then its introduction will be easy. A more than useful lesson and one that has its uses in everyday (thuk wan) Thai life. A little bit more of these type of lessons please as they are so easy to follow for all (thang) concerned.
