Well he's saying they was so beautiful, which is past tense. Thus stating that now they are no longer beautiful. Hey, he said it.

reply

Didn't notice on that. Anyway the past tense usage is wrong. It should be written as they were beautiful. I reckon the OP meant they used to be beautiful. Yeah I think you got it right there in that the poster of this thread had suggested that the beauty on them had faded.

Is it honestly that hilarious to poke fun at people that speak more languages than you, but aren't so great at English?

Be happy that there's not much chaos in his statement, and it is easy to understand what he meant.

reply

Indeed, the girl, dancing one, was quite cute. BTW, substitute the 'was' for 'are'. ;)

reply

The dancing one yes; cute. But is it me, or does every thai woman get incredibly annoying once she opens her mouth? It something about the whiny language + whiny voices that just makes me kringe.

reply

The spelling-bee Nazi says YOU'RE WRONG! Its cringe with a 'c'. Just kidding ;)

solidblur, yeah, remember the girl from Ong Bak? I think she's much worse. If you recall the girl from Ong Bak II, a first-time viewer might think its because she's a kid- but in most Thai films, the women (and even men?) talk in a high-toned, high pitch voice. Reminds me of the seinfeldian "high talker".

Although I am not a native English speaker, yes, it does irritate me a bit. But then again I can be excused for being a culturally insensitive narcissist.

reply

Well I've got to admit that the THAI langage to my occidental ears sounds rather crude...

reply


Hi

Thai crude? Very much the opposite. Seriously learn (even a little of) the language and you will see what I mean.

Did you ever notice that people who believe in creationism look really un-evolved?

reply
