意思
Washing one's body.
文化背景
Bathing twice a day is standard. Not bathing in the evening is often considered 'sok ka pok' (dirty) because of the tropical climate. In villages, the river is the social hub for bathing. Modesty is maintained using a sarong (pha sin). During Pi Mai (New Year), 'ab nam' extends to Buddha statues to gain merit. Electric water heaters are now common, but many still prefer 'nam yen' (cold water) to combat the heat.
The Greeting
If someone asks 'Ab nam laew bo?', they aren't being nosy; they are just being friendly!
Cold Water
In Laos, 'nam yen' (cold water) is often preferred. Don't be surprised if there's no heater in local homes.
