Explanation
งานเลี้ยงส่ง is built from งาน “event,” เลี้ยง “to treat or host,” and ส่ง “to send off.” The image is an event where people host or treat someone as they send that person off. Common patterns include จัดงานเลี้ยงส่ง “hold a farewell party,” มีงานเลี้ยงส่ง “there is a farewell party,” and งานเลี้ยงส่งให้... “a farewell party for ...”
Usage
It is commonly used when someone is leaving a company, transferring, graduating, returning home, or moving away. It works naturally for coworkers, teachers, friends, exchange students, and similar situations.
Caution
Do not normally use this for funerals or sending off someone who has died; use words such as งานศพ for a funeral. Also, it does not mean an event for mailing or sending objects. It refers to a party for sending off a person.
