Krab phom is it means "yes sir" and only use by males?

What is the meaning of "dee kua" which I often hear this in an ending sentence?

ครับผม-krap pom
(particle used by male speakers to sound polite and deferential, sometimes corresponding to "Sir" or "Yes, sir")

ดีกว่า-dee gwaa

[to be] better than,rather.

Eg. Between a food court and street food stall i rather eat in food court as it is air-conditioned.

It so hot,it better to go for a swim.

Pls forgive my poor english.

Depending what type of thai language you wish to learn,

Tourist thai; enough to survive for the trip
Formal thai; business or news broadcast type
Street thai; everyday usage
Thai slang; use between friends and closed one
Teenage thai; their own modified version
Internet thai.. modified thai in the cyber world.
