The Mirror Technique

Listen to the pronoun the Thai person uses to refer to themselves and you. If they call you 'Phi', call them 'Nong'. Mirror their level of formality.

The 'Third Person' Trick

When unsure of a pronoun, use the person's title or nickname as a pronoun. It's always safe and polite.

The 'Khun' Safety Net

If you are unsure of someone's rank, always use 'Khun' + Name. It is never offensive and shows you are trying to be polite.
