Steve is right about the sounds - I think the tone may have something to do with it as well. in English, the low tone goes with contempt, that kind of thing. just say aloud something like "you idiot!" - not shouting, but with contempt, with that little twist of the nose. it is low tone.

once a guest asked me why the taxi drivers were yelling at us so angrily. they were merely offering to go to "Doi Suthep". the tone on the last syllable makes it sound angry if said loud / shouted, I think. rhymes a little with "go to hell!".
