意味
Giving the choice to the other person
文化的背景
The 'Indecision Dance': In Thailand, two people might say 'แล้วแต่คุณ' back and forth for minutes. This is a sign of mutual respect, not necessarily lack of opinion. Subordinates will almost always use 'แล้วแต่...' with their superiors to show they are ready to follow orders without question. Men are often expected to lead, but saying 'แล้วแต่คุณ' to a woman can be seen as being a 'gentleman' who cares about her preferences. In the Northeast, you might hear 'แล้วแต่เจ้า' (Laeo-tae-chao), using the local pronoun 'chao' for 'you'.
Add 'Loei' for warmth
Saying 'แล้วแต่คุณเลย' (Laeo-tae-khun loei) sounds much more genuine and less like you're just being lazy.
Watch the 'Sigh'
If you sigh before saying 'แล้วแต่คุณ,' you are telling the person you are annoyed with them.

The Indecision Loop
If a Thai person says this to you, they might be waiting for you to take the lead. Don't be afraid to make a choice!
Use with 'Wa'
Use 'แล้วแต่ว่า' (Laeo-tae-wa) to explain what the decision depends on, e.g., 'แล้วแต่ว่าฝนจะตกไหม' (Depends on if it rains).
自分をテスト
Fill in the blank to politely tell your boss the meeting time is up to them.
