معنی
Indicating that information is no longer in mind.
زمینه فرهنگی
The phrase is often accompanied by a light laugh or a gentle tap on the head, signaling that the mistake is human and not a cause for stress. In offices, 'ລືມແລ້ວ' is acceptable for small things, but for big tasks, it's better to use 'ຂໍໂທດ' (sorry) first to maintain professional face. Teachers are used to students saying this. It's better to admit you forgot than to stay silent, which can be seen as disrespectful. On apps like WhatsApp or Line, people often type 'ລືມແລ້ວ' followed by the 😅 emoji to show they feel a bit embarrassed.
Drop the Subject
In casual Lao, you don't need to say 'I' (Khoy). Just saying 'Lum laew' is perfectly natural and sounds more native.
Tone Matters
Make sure 'laew' has a high tone. If you say it with a low tone, it might sound like a different word entirely.

10 سوالYes, in very casual speech, but 'Lum laew' sounds much more complete and natural.
It's not rude, but it's casual. Add 'Khon thod' (Sorry) before it to be more professional.
