VIDEO: Fix Your THAI Grammar

Saturday December 7, 2019 by Mod 16 Comments

This lesson is very special because you will learn two things in one;

[1] Thai Grammar

[2] Listening skills

I try to make this lesson useful for both beginners and intermediate learners. I edited the same role play in two different versions;

Version 1 is with subtitle and has slower talking speed

Version 2 is without subtitle and has normal talking speed.

  • If you are a beginner, before watching the Role Play please learn the grammar parts which I explain at the end first, so you understand the sentence structure then you can watch the conversation
  • If you are not a beginner, I suggest you to start by watching the role play without the subtitle

You can choose to watch either version first depends on your language level.

Conversation Dialogue:

แกนั่งๆนอนๆเฉยๆมากี่ชั่วโมงแล้วเนี่ยะ /gae nâng-nâng nawn-nawn chĕoi- chĕoi maa gìi chûa-moong láew nîa/ 

How many hours have you been lying still?

3 วันแล้ว /săam wan láew/

It has been three days already.

ตายๆๆ /dtaai,dtaai, dtaai, dtaai/

Oh my, oh my!

แกจะหมดอาลัยตากอยากอย่างนี้ไม่ได้ ไปข้างนอกกัน /gae jà mòt aa-lai dtaai yàak yàang-níi mâi-dâai/

You can’t be lacking in spirit like this.

ชั้นอกหัก ชั้นไม่อยากจะทำอะไรเลย /chán òk-hàk, chán mâi yàak jà tam à-rai leoi/

My heart is broekn, I don’t want to do anything at all.

ฉันจะไปโยคะ ไปด้วยกัน /chán jà bpai yoo-ká, bpai dûai-gan/

I’m going to yoga. Let’s go together.

จะทำให้แกรู้สึกดีขึ้น /jà tam hâi gae rúu-sùek dii kûen/

It will make you feel better.

ไม่ได้หรอก /mâi dâai ràwk/

I can’t!

ไม่ได้ออกกำลังกายมาหลายปีแล้ว /mâi-dâai àwk-gam-lang-gaai maa lăai bpii láew/

I haven’t been exercised for many years.

ตัวแข็งไปหมดแล้วเนี่ยะ /dtua kăeng bpai mòt láew nîa/

My body is all stiff.

ได้ ไปด้วยกัน /​dâai, bpai dûai gan/

Yes you can. Let’s go together.

PART 2

มด แกเก่งมากเลย / Mod, gae gèng mâak leoi/

Mod, you are very good.

แกฝึกโยคะมากี่ปีแล้ว /gae fùek yoo-ká maa gìi bpii láew/

How many years have you been practicing yoga?

ฝึกมา 5 ปีแล้ว /fùek maa 5 bpii láew/

I’ve been practing for 5 years alredy.

แกทำได้ แกเป็นไงบ้าง /gae tam dâai, gae bpen ngai bâang/

You could do it. How are you doing?

รู้สึกดีขึ้น ขอบใจนะ /rúu-sùek dii kûen, kàwp-jai ná/

I’m feeling better, thank you.

แกเป็นเพื่อนที่ดีมากเลย /gae bpen pûean tîi dii mâak leoi/

You are a very good friend.

เราเป็นเพื่อนกันมากี่ปีแล้วนะ /rao bpen pûean gan maa gìi bpii láew ná/

How long have we been friends?

20 ปีแล้ว /yîi-sìp bpii láew/

It has been 20 years already.

แต่ตั้งแต่แกย้ายไปอยู่ออสเตรเลีย เราก็ไม่ค่อยได้เจอกัน

/dtâng dtàe gae yáai bpai yùu Australia, rao gâw mâi kôi dâai jer gan/

But since you moved to Australia, we rarly see eachother/

นั่นสิ /nân sì/

That’s right.

แต่ว่าเราจะกลับพรุ่งนี้แล้วนะ /dtàe wâa rao jà glàp prûng-níi láew ná/

But I’m going back tomorrow.

จะกลับแล้วเหรอ /jà glàp láew lăw/

You are going back already?

แกอยู่ออสเตรเลียมากี่ปีแล้ว /gae yùu Australia maa gìi bpii láew/

How many years have you been living in Australia?

6 ปีแล้วเหมือนกันนะเนี่ยะ /hòk bpii láew mŭean-gan ná nîa/

Uhmm…it has been six years already.

ฉันไม่ได้ไปเที่ยวออสเตรเลียมาเกือบ 10 ปีแล้ว 

/chán mâi-dâai bpai-tîao Australia maa gùeap 10 bpii láew/

I haven’t visited Australia for nearly 10 years.

ฉันจะไปหาแกนะ /chán jà bpai hăa gae ná/

I will go to see you.

ไปดิ เดี๋ยวเราพาเที่ยว /bpai dì, dĭao rao paa tîao/

You should go, I’ll show you around.

    Thanks for this Mot. You might want to fix the typing error in this phrase หมดอาลัยตากอยาก (3rd sentence). This was a new phrase for me.
