Then thats when being a foreigner helps. They will b more forgiving and proud that u r trying their language. And speaking a bit of Thai does help to sian the girls coz 99% of those u meet aren't English majors. The flip side is pretending not to know u also can listen to their conversations about you. Maybe should have separate thread "poot thai"?

Example of formal & street Thai:
Movie - phaa-pha-yom (formal) / nang (informal)
