意思
Giving water to vegetation.
文化背景
Most Thai houses have a 'San Phra Phum' (Spirit House). Watering the plants around the spirit house is often combined with offering fresh water to the spirits. The verb 'รดน้ำ' is central to Songkran. It's not just for plants; it's for elders and Buddha statues to show respect and seek blessings. Because Thailand is hot, watering is usually done at 6-7 AM or 5-6 PM. Watering at noon is discouraged as it can 'scald' the plants. Nurturing nature is seen as a small act of merit (Tham Bun). Keeping a garden green is believed to bring 'Yen' (coolness/peace) to the home.
Shorten it!
In casual conversation, you can just say 'ไปรดน้ำก่อนนะ' (Going to water [the plants] now). The context is usually clear.
Don't say 'Lang'!
Avoid saying 'ล้างต้นไม้' (Lang ton-mai). It sounds like you are scrubbing the tree with soap and a brush!

Songkran Context
If someone says 'รดน้ำ' during April, they are likely talking about the New Year festival, not their garden.
