Default Re: Some pictures from Thailand!

Here is the reply from the Thai language message board. #2 is the white/blue banana. #4 is interesting as well! The question marks are Thai letters/symbols that this board apparently doesn't support?


"interesting set of bananas you have there. these bananas aren't commonly found in thailand.
from left to right.
1.?????????? (gluai nom mii) - rice noodle banana (can also translate as bear milk banana).
2.(the one you were interested in) ???????????????????? (gluai nam waa nuan jan) - small cultivated banana, light-coloured.
3. ???????? (gluai naak) - metallic-coloured banana.
4. ??????????????? (gluai pa-maa heek kuk) - (strange name here) burmese escaped from jail banana.
i hope this is helpful.
