Say it
ngûang
ง่วง
Used to describe feeling drowsy or sleepy, especially when you're fighting to stay awake. Thai speakers commonly use this when tired at work, after meals, or late at night. Often paired with มาก (mâak) for 'very sleepy' or preceded by รู้สึก (rúu-sʉ̀k) meaning 'feel'. More casual than formal sleep-related vocabulary.
