So, you have decided to take my advice and find a Thai girlfriend. Great! That is the first step to a very happy life for you. So the first thing is to go out and find a girl. My previous articles have given me good advice on how to do it and there will be many more tips to come. But once you find that special Thai girl, you will want to impress her by knowing a few words / phrases that will come in handy to impress your new Thai beauty.
Today, I will go over 7 Thai words / phrases you should know when dating or trying to date a girl, either online or when traveling to Thailand. Please note that these are approximate English pronunciations of actual Thai words. The good news is that most Thai girls can read at least a little English and will be able to understand these words and phrases written in Thai in English if you chat online via IM or on Thai dating websites. Let us begin!
1. The first thing you should learn is to tell your Thai girl that she looks beautiful. This can be said as follows: Sway mak. The word “influence” means beautiful and “mak” translates to very. Alternatively, you can say: “Narak mak”, which translates to “very cute”.
2. Next, you need to know what she might say to her when she tells you that she is beautiful. It may just say “hob khun ka”, which is Thai for “thank you.” Or you can be daring and say “pak waan” which means “sweet mouth.” This is a cute and flirty way for a Thai girl that means she doesn’t completely believe your sweet words.
3. If you have just met your Thai lady, you may want to ask her if she already has a boyfriend or kick. To do this, say: “Khun me faen mai?” This literally translates to: “do you have a boyfriend?”
4. When you start to get serious with your Thai girlfriend, it might be time to start calling her by the name that Thai women love. The word is “tirak”. When you call her that, she will literally melt with happiness. But make sure you mean it first!
5. If you are talking to a girl and it is late, you may want to tell her “sweet dreams”. To do this you can say: “Faan dee”. She will like it very much and will go to sleep thinking of you. Trust me.
6. Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, it is the first night you go on a date. If you are in Thailand, make sure you go to a nice romantic restaurant and bring a bottle of wine. Raise your glass and say “chon gaow.” If you are drinking from a bottle, say “chon cuord.” “Gaow” means glass and “cuord” means bottle.
7. The last sentence you want to learn when dating a Thai girl is the big “L” word. To say I love you, just say “Pom rak khun.” I’ll leave the rest to you!
