Sawatdee ka,
This lesson we will learn how to plan a date. Before you go on a date there should be some planning, right? so we would need to ask for a suggestion.
The key pattern is:
Wh- question + “dii” ดี ?
When you put the word “dii” ดี after a question, it conveys the meaning of asking for a suggestion or advice.
ทำอะไรดี tam à-rai dii?
What shall we do?
ไปที่ไหนดี bpai tîi-năi dii?
Where shall we go?
กินอะไรดี gin à-rai dii?
What shall we eat?
ไปกี่โมงดี bpai gìi moong dii?
What time shall we go?
KEY VOCAB FROM THE VIDEO:
ต่างจังหวัด [ dtàang jang-wàt ] = out of town, up country, other province
อาหาร [ aa-hăan ] = food
ทำ [tam] = to do
กิน [gin] = to eat
ไป [bpai] = to go
I hope you found this lesson useful:)

Kruu Mod,
Can you also use “Bpai” for the question “Where is the/my pencil?”
Michel says
Good! How do you write this informal particle? Can you give us exemples of other informal particles? Tell us if some have to be avoided absolutly. Thanks!
Michel says
sorry….not mymy but many!
Michel says
Nice lessons….but why do you add “ah” at the end of mymy sentences? pay nai dee ah?
Mod says
It is an informal particle. I am speaking to my little sister so I don’t need to use “ka” 🙂
