خلفية ثقافية
Rain is traditionally seen as a blessing from the gods (Phra Pirun). The Royal Plowing Ceremony is held annually to predict the rainfall for the coming season. Rain is often dreaded by office workers because the city's drainage system can't handle heavy downpours, leading to 'waiting for drainage' (not flooding!) and massive traffic jams. Rain is a romantic catalyst. Sharing an umbrella (กางร่มคันเดียวกัน) is a classic sign of budding romance. The 'Rainy Season Retreat' (Vassa) is when monks stay in their temples for three months. It begins during the rainy season.
Drop the 'It'
Never use 'Man' (it) before 'Fon tok'. It sounds very unnatural to Thai ears.
Traffic Warning
