VIDEO: Cheesy Line for Loy Krathong Festival

For some Thais, Loy Krathong festival (ประเพณีลอยกระทง) is a kind of Valentines’day. It is an opportunity to ask your crush out to go out on a magical full moon night. In this video I have some useful phrases and a cheesy line you can use during this beautiful festival, try them and have a wonderful time! 🙂

Let’s also look at some useful sentences you can ask your Thai friends on this occasion;
?คุณจะไปลอยกระทงมั้ย /kun jà bpai loi grà-tong mái?/
Are you going to float a Krathong?

?คุณจะไปลอยกระทงที่ไหน /kun jà bpai loi grà-tong tîi-nãi?/
Where are you going to float the Krathong?

?คุณจะไปลอยกระทงกับใคร/kun jà bpai loi grà-tong gàp krai?/

Whom are you going to float the krathong with?

?ลอยกระทงให้สนุกนะ /loi grà-tong hâi sà-nùk ná/

Have fun at the Loy Krathong festival.

? กระทงอาจจะหลงทางแต่ใจเราหลงเธอ / grà-ton àat-jà lŏng taang, dtàe jai rao lŏng ter/

The Krathong may lost its way but my heart is lost to you.
