- ชั้นเอก - highly honored wat or very important, with chedi containing Buddha relic.
- ชั้นโท - honored or has important chedi.
- ชั้นตรี - honored, being the main temple of a major city, or less important than higher level.

[edit] Phu Thai
I have seen Phu Thai written as ภูไท, ผู้ไท or ผู้ไทย. They all refer to the same ethnic. I am not sure which one is the term used officially in ethnic study.
For Bai Si Su Khwan, it's a custom to bring in luck to people who participates. One popular reason to hold such event is to performed to new students to a university. Some photos can be found here [2] (at Prince of Songkhla University). The green thing made from banana leaves in the fourth picture of the second row is Bai Si. The term Su Khwan means bring khwan back. According to old belief, khwan is inside each individual and may leave him/her during scared, sickness, sadness, etc. Part of this event is tying cotton thread to the wrist of participants by respected person (in third photo, last row - tied by University professors). -- Lerdsuwa 16:00, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
