"Ting Tong" is derived from the English words "Ding Dong".. meaning silly/slightly crazy.
Utter rubbish!
Thanks Basher.. I must write a letter to the publishers of my handy dandy New Model Thai English Dictionary (So Sethaputra) and inform them of thier mistake.
Yes good idea, go ahead and do that
Can't have folk proliferating bollocks can we

dting dtong is a silly phrase that I've only seen used by BGs, so I never use it, nor Bah Bah Boe Boe

Bah Bah bow bow was used a lot in the south when I lived down in Trang, a favorite saying too was:
Bi ha maw bah ti Surat
Go to the mental doc in Surat (where there is a big nuthouse)

Exactly.. they picked it up from farangs over the years.. just like "bia, gahfaa, air, i-teem, etc etc and countless other english words and expressions.

Khanom pang = bread
Khanom pang ping = toast. Why, because the toaster makes a ping sound when it fires the toast out!
Any other silly "reasons" behind translations?
Cheerio
PS: This'll do until there's a sensible request for help on understanding the Thai language!

Id been in LOS 5 mins and asked for a 'COKE' - and was told 'Ah- you speak Thai velly well'
My fav. has to be the brit/james Bond who wandered into a bar I was at - and asked the very plain, aging, desperate Bat-tendee " Mah Tee Nee "

How about when you go and buy barbecued pork on the street (moo ping), what makes a ping sound then?

no, because "bping" refers to anything cooked on or against a hot grate or metal mesh, as in goong bping: barbequed shrimp
