Asking someone to put words in writing.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The concept of 'Kreng Jai' is vital. Using 'Noi' (a little) shows you are aware you are asking for a favor and don't want to be a burden. In offices, asking someone to write something down is a way to ensure accountability. It's common to ask for a 'Lลายลักษณ์อักษร' (written evidence). Students often use this with teachers. It shows respect for the teacher's knowledge and a desire to learn correctly. Street vendors are usually happy to write names of fruits or dishes. It's a common 'ice-breaker' for tourists.
Always add Krap/Ka
Even though 'Noi' is polite, adding the gender particle at the end makes you sound much more fluent and respectful.
Watch the Tone
If you say 'Khian' with a flat tone, it might not be understood. Aim for that rising 'question-like' tone.

Use with Phim
If you want someone to type into your Google Maps, say 'Chuai Phim Noi' instead of 'Khian'.
The Wai
A small nod or a 'Wai' when they finish writing goes a long way in Thai culture.
