Note ชื่น and เชิญ are not the same – the "grimacing birdy" sounds different from the "dirty" igloo; and of course the tones are different:
เชิญนั่งสิครับ – please take a seat "invite sit [insist] [polite]"
เชิญทางนี้ค่ะ – this way please "invite way this [polite]"
เชิญเลย – go ahead (be my guest) "invite [emphasis/completely]"
