Why do people from Vientiane and Nong Khai have different accents?

they are the same accents, you might heard their thai accents. Nakhonphanom 's accent is very close with thakhek people's , but thai nakhonpanom always say" Kap" in the end of sentences .

You wrong my friend... we vientiane and nongkhai dont have same accent like you said... because you are live in province that ;s why u cant distinguish..

we vientiane people have developed our tone several decades which is more clear, polite sound gentle...
which nong khai people sound like from other province of Laos

I think you are the one who wrong... The thing is..why Lao teen prefered to speaking in Thai-Isaan language than speaking in pure Laos. That mean they have more develpment of the language than us. Telling uou the true. I think you knew that!!! Right?

I think you don't understand history. People from Nong Khai were Lao and it wasn't that long ago that Thailand annexed it. I imagine that when Nong Khai was part of Laos or even part of Vientiane city it self they must have spoken with the same accent as Vientiane people since they're just across the river.

No I don't get it. Any idiots know that Vientiane is part of Laos and Nongkhai belongs to Thailand.

Get it or do you get it or have you got it? But no "You've get it?"

Even people who live in Vientiane speak with different accents for example: people from Ban Soun Mon and Ban Na No they have slightly different Vientiane accents. You may not be able to tell if you come from other provinces of Laos. Anyway, it does not matter what accent one has, it is more important to focus on how one speak.

It's a simple question. One can just simply answer yes or no. Don't have to make a mountain out of a molehill.

yes you are right? why didn't ask '' why do vientiane people have different accent? the answer is, the one who has different accent is not native vientiane. perhaps the guy who creat this topic heard some chiangmai people speak in nongkhai .haha

Well , it has been over 200 years that Esan are under Siam and the culture have been mix and have been taught Thai language for so long and of course there will be a lo of change. Not only kon Nong Kia or the whole Esan and Chiang Mai are changed but Lao people in Laos as well. Lao language itself are changing with Thai accent and vocabulary also.

That is very easy to prove that most of Lao people could read , speak and understand Thai without taking Thai lessons .

I am Lao and people in Laos will tell you that present Nong Kai belongs to Thailand so his/her geography is correct. Talk about present and should not try to bring history here because will lead to nowhere but argument and confrontation.

Ten years ago I went to Udon due to my friend's father who was taken ill and was being treated at the hospital there. A doctor (khon Isaan) who was a friend of my friend's father arranged for us to stayed at her house despite my reluctant as I did not want to intrude. I found her to be one of the most friendly and generous people I've ever known, including her Thai husband.

Anyway I went to buy some drinks (coconut juice) from the hospital little 7-11 shop (kind of) and ask for "tor dood" (drinking straw) and the lady said "mai mee". I thought I spoke Thai alright (how wrong was I) and also putting on the best Thai accent I could muster. Also another time I asked for "jork" (drinking cup) this other lady also said "mai mee".

Since after those episodes when arrived in Bangkok I refused to speak Thai anymore as I was afraid people wouldn't understand me.

I don't have any problem to understand Lao from any part in Laos and from the northern part of Thailand which are many different accent and it might take a little time and longer to understand but I still understand them all unlike Chinese, Burmese, Cambodia and Vietnamese.

"tor dood" is Lao for drinking straw
"Lord" is Thai for drinking straw

"jork" is Lao for drinking cup
"gaeo" or "thuai" are Thai for drinking cup

It have been over 200 years that Esan have been taught at school so there is no surprise that a lot of words and have been improved and changed for better understanding even Lao language itself have been copy from Thai and American words.
So it is matter like khu Adisorn Piengket said Lao is still Lao even we are Thai citizen.
