I don't have access to utube. When I was in Khon Kaen Thailand, they told me that area called Issan area.

Tai Orathai is thai singer from the Issan region I think and I can understand her lyrics clearly because sounds like she is singing in my native tongue :D.  She's cute too, so that is a plus. ;D

Laos lost before we were fighting among ourself and not uniting. Last time Lao united was king Fa Ngam and Laos become biggest empire in Southeast Asia.

Lao was helping Thai fight Lao. Lao was helping Vietnam fighting Lao. Stuff like that.

"Ngam" isn't pronounced as water.

It sounds a bit like "ngoom".

Title: Re: Isan people
Post by ba dac on 23rd Jun, 2013 at 10:18am
i would've spell water as nam.I don't think there is a proper
way of spelling it in english is there ?

Title: Re: Isan people
Post by Admin Saovaluck on 23rd Jun, 2013 at 10:49am
It's pretty hard to spell his name in English.

His official name in English is "Fa Ngum", which sounds like "Fah Ngoom" when spoken in Lao.
