意味
Not listening or ignoring advice.
文化的背景
In Thai families, children are expected to be 'Wa Norn Son Ngai' (easy to teach). Being 'Khao Hu Sai Thalu Hu Khwa' is the opposite of this virtue. Thai teachers often use proverbs to shame students into paying attention without being too aggressive. It's a form of 'soft' discipline. In Thai offices, 'Kreng Jai' (consideration) usually prevents direct confrontation. Using this idiom about a coworker is a way to express frustration to others. The concept of 'Sati' (mindfulness) is central to Thai life. This idiom describes a lack of Sati, where the mind is not present to catch the words.
Use with 'Gor'
Always use the word 'ก็' (gor) before the phrase to sound more natural: 'เขาก็เข้าหูซ้าย...'
Avoid with Elders
Never use this to describe your parents or grandparents to their face.
