I hear this a lot attached to the end of phrases. I have deciphered that if it is just the word "sii", it means "do it" or "go ahead", but what does "la sii" mean?
From what I understand, "Doo sii" means "Look at it" or "go ahead and look at it". Same as "Tam sii" means "do it" and so on. But I have heard "Hue la sii" which I think means "I am hungry".
Is there an intonation difference between the "sii" and the "la sii" that makes the difference?
Any advice?

And while you at that, I cannot get a straight answer of what "Doy" means at the end of a sentence. Some answers I got were "already", "also" and "and so on"

Si is used to emphasize an action
Du - Look at it
Du Si - You should really look at it
Pai - Go
Pai Si - You should really go
La Si... not quite sure.

Perhaps it is a double emphasis.

OK, I got some more info regarding this "la sii" comment. It is basically a slang term that is thrown around like the "na" comment (i.e. - "kor tort na" = "I'm sorry, huh".
"La sii" is still used when directing someone to do something (same as sii), but more so in a "chai mai"/joking sort of way. So, when I am visibly hungry, Angel will joke to me "Hue la sii" which is a combo of "you're hungry, right?" and "be hungry!!!".
"Pood sii" = "Speak/Say it"
"Tam sii" = "Do it"
"Doo pooying la sii" = "Go ahead, look at the girls,  *" (when you are obviously staring at some girls)
"Go-Hok la sii" = "OK, go ahead with your lame excuses, you're busted already"*
I hope this clarifies it somewhat, I think I get the concept. This is Thai slang, not Isaan slang, so you can safely say it in front of your Good Thai girls and they wont wonder where you have been hanging out.
*not literal translation.
