I guess some might experience an amusing event. When we take the same word in different ways. I have one to share. It is about the word "Wad"Actually "Wad" in Thai refers to more than a meaning, "to measure" and " a temple".
Once I was in a village. I would like to measure the tank's size. I asked my friend to go and "Wad" the tank together. She took the "wad" as a "temple". So she went to a temple and waited me there for a long time. I was at the tank and measuring its size with some other friends. Wondering where was she....
When we met at home again she asked me "were were you ?" I answered "Pai Wad". I asked her the same question. She replied "Pai Wad". ...
Then we both had a good laugh when we got to know we took the different meanings of "wad".
