I was afraid you would write it like that.
So it means literally something like excrement - separate/break
All in the name of linguistics and studying Thai.

I suspect kendo is thinking of 'kee maak'!
O.K guys you know my spelling in English is not to hot but my understanding of a small amount of Thai go's like this
Kee Maak is shit a lot as in quantity
Kee Tak or Taak is to have extream diarrhea or slang the screaming squits
Here's another Kee nee-o meaning tight stingy or cheap charlie.

kee-neow has already been done :p I think we are almost out of options. It has been noted that basically kee means waste and you can apply it in many ways. However, I do not understand how 'kee-ow' translates to what it does :/

Kii mow- alway drunk
Kii ge-it - Lazy
Kii Len - always like to play
Kii eye - always shy
Kii- is just another way of saying always or often . You could use alot of words with it.
