Greeting!

Sawatdee kha!,  is Thai greeting .It is same as  Hi, Hello, Good morning, Good afternoon and Good evening . We do not have specific word in different time, so just "Sawatdee" in anytime and also for good bye.  I will talk inThai and English because only 2 langueages I speak dairy. I would like to learn other languages too.

There are 2 words show sex of a peron who speak I would like to talk also, both words make the sentences soft and polite.

1. Kha= for women say include girls  for example Sawatdee kha. Kob khun kha ( means Thank you.)

2.Krab =  for men include boys  for example  Sawatdee Krab.  My name is Tom krab.


Body language for Sawatdee is bowing hands and bend your head. There are  3 levels for this issue :

1. Greeting a person or people who older: we will bowing hands at the chest level and bend the  head to touch the big fingers.

2. Greeting a person or people who has same age : we will bowing hands at  the chest level and just move head down little ,not bend head down to touch big fingers.

3. Greeting a person or people  who younger : Thai traditional  younger person/people  give respect / greeting  to a person/people who older first with bowing and older person/people respons as greeting to a person/people who has same age, or just say Sawatdee without bowing.
