ตอนนี้น้องยุ กทม ยุจร้า

 

She's saying she's in Bangkok. The use of the word ยุ is confusing here because it generally indicates trouble, to incite, but it's possible (especially if she's not a very well educated girl that she's misspelt the word อยู่ which means to stay at. So I think she's telling you she's now staying in Bangkok. The จร้า at the end is just a polite particle.

ยุ and จร้า are indeed misspellings (for อยู่ and จ้ะ), but they're intentional.

 

It's "normal" chatlanguage and if you look on Facebook or a Thai messageboard you'll see lots of it. Thais even have a word for it: ภาษาวิบัติ paasaa wibat = sloppy language. It's the kind of writing that makes the Thai language purists cringe, but it's used a lot.

It's a bloody annoying song though.... Unless you're a 16 year old Thai girl of course :D

Interesting, I didn't realize Thai, like English, is becoming truncated through internet and sms. I guess in time no bastard will remember the correct spelling of any language.

The "correct" spelling is the spelling that is used. We tend to see language as a static thing, but it is, was and will ever be a dynamic process with constant change. Your correct English was wrong English hundred years ago and will be wrong English in hundred years. It is a permanent fight between the "We must stop every change in our Language"-People and the Reality of used Language. The People that want to stop the change die and someday there is another language reform that change what is right and what is wrong.

 

And this happens in every language.

I am a moneyreformer. More and more people realize that our moneysystem is broken. It has a bug and need an update. Problem is, that most humans don't know a shit about how money works and so most people are not able to see the bug. They blame the greedy, the lazy, the old, the unenployed or the state. So we are doomed to see a moneycrash with many human tragedies.

 

PS: gold backed currency is NOT the solution.

hmmmm the way how to say things ok but not how you write words I think... I mean I don't think that in 100 years อยู่ will become ยุ don't you think?

I love you long time!

You can't say what words will change, but there will be change. Polyglot Stuart Jay Raj has a map how spoken consonants transformed over the years. And on thai-language.com you find words with old and new writings.

And you will hear alot that thai people are lazy and speak different than the writing suggest. Over the time, the writing will change to.

In germany, we "just" had a spelling reform to "fix" the writing system. As i said, language was and will never be static.
