Where are you going? I'm really very sorry.. Explanation: Hi Tess, Because Thai can be transliterated into English in so many ways and there is no way to know tones, all we can do is guess. "Pai Nai?" literally means "Wher are you going" but in fact in this form it's just an informal greeting meaning something equivalent to "How are things?" "Chan" is "I" in Thai and "mahk" is much. "tuh" is probably the informal intimate version of you. I'm not sure what "koothot" is supposed to be. The second part means "I something you much" My best guess is that "koothot" is the word for "apologize" sounding like "kaw tawt" but it could be transliterated that way. Conor Bracken |

Where have you gone? I miss you a lot. Explanation: That koot hot looks like it should be the Lao phrase khit hot, literally (my) thoughts reach (you), or idiomatically, I miss you. Does anyone look back this far? |
