| Cultural Insight |
| Eric: Now it's time for a quick cultural insight. |
| Jay: I have a useful phrase for when you invite someone to enter a room. It’s “khâo maa dâai” This is an informal Thai phrase meaning “come in.” Once again, “khâo maa dâai.” “khâo” means “to enter” “maa” is “to come” and finally “dâai” means “to be able to” |
