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.



And I also went to Phuket as well.  I found Isaan people there very nice and friendly to me once they found out that I was Lao.  Once I started talking to the food sellers on the road next to the beach.  They said "oh khon Lao what jung vat (province) are you from?".  I said Lao from Luang Prabang (really I'm Lao-Luang Prabang Australian) but they just starred at me for little while, then I said Lao Vieng-jun.  Oh Lao khoe gun, mah, mah, mah kin khao poon num gun.

And don't ask for tum mak roong (paw paw salad).  Heheheh....

Esan people often greet each other. Time in different provinces. That neighbor. And help each other.

Don't try to be clever because you're not.  A lot of people here said they're from Nong Khai, and Udon and that they speak the same as Vientiene people.  Luang Prabang and Champasak are not that close compare to to Nong Khai and Vientiene.  If you have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all.

 No. It's the same person who keep saying that he/she is from NongKhai and pround to be Lao and then later add "with Thai citizen". We don't even know if it's true.

Yes. and that is the way you learn to say that you Lao Nongkhai and pround to be Lao right? by watch a lot of videos and assume how Esan people think.

Every one in Esan never ashamed to be Lao anyways but not Lao in the sense of Laos today but the ancient Lao. And mind you it's the ancient Lao Esan itself that help Siam to win over Laos don't forget about that.

 If you think Lao in Esan are ashamed of themselves then you are not one of them.
Lao Esan are so proud of themselves and Thai can accept the good and the bad of Lao Esan unlike Lao in Laos.

Do you know the word "pop phee fah" or "phee pop"? That is the true Lao culture but now forbidden in Laos. Why? because Laos ashamed of that culture.

Haven't you noticed that Adisorn always sings about "dok koon" not "dok jumpa".

Dok koon is for Esan not dok jumpa for Laos.

Oh now you are proud to be Thai like khu Adisorn Piengket.?

Because you don't really know how should be proud as an Esan but you know him and it's sound good enough right. If you really are Esan you know by yourself but you are just a pretending one.
