This lesson we are talking about words for everyday life that we often hear Thai language learners mispronounce. If you mispronounce these words, it might change the meaning to an offensive word or impolite word, so we would like you to be careful when saying these five words!
- ขวา /kwăa/ = right
- คอย /kawi/ = wait for , and เคย /keoi/ = ever, have done something before
- หิมะ /hì má/ = snow
- มวย /muai/ = boxing
- นอนหลับ /nawn làp/ = sleep
Answer to the listening exercise:
1.ประเทศไทยเคยมีหิมะไหม
/bprà-têet tai keoi mii hì-má mái/
Does it ever snow in Thailand?
2. คุณคอยใครอยู่
/kun kawi krai yùp/
Who are you waiting for?
3. มีหมาอยู่ทางซ้าย มีควายอยู่ทางขวา
/mii măa yùu taang sáai, mii kwaai yùp taang kwăa/
There is a dog on the left side, there is a water buffalo on the right side.
4. ฝึกมวยไทยช่วยให้คุณนอนหลับดี
/fùek muai-tai chûai hâi kun nawn-làp dii/
Training Thai boxing helps you sleep well.
5. แฟนเขาไม่อยากหลับนอนกับเขา
/faen káo mâi yàak làp-nawn gàp káo/
His/her lover doesn’t want to sleep with him/her.

Hi mod, your lessons are superb!
Can I suggest some idea for a future topic??
It would be fun if your followers and fans could send you different questions and then you would pick like 10 or 15 and answer them in a video. In thai and English maybe.
Keep it up!
Sawatdee ka Damien, thank you for your suggestion. It is an interesting idea. I will make a post on our Facebook page and if there are questions from the followers I will do a lesson. 🙂
Great! Can you also ask here? Because otherwise people like me that don’t use Facebook wouldn’t be able to send questions.
Absolutely, I will create a post here as well.
Awesome!
hihihi this one is one of my fav video lessons you made so far.
We are happy to hear that you enjoyed our lesson. Thank you for your comment. 🙂
I really like your teaching style. Your lessons are truly great and never boring!
Thank you for your comment. Pear and I are delighted to hear that. 🙂
Hi Mod, hope to get your answers for that short interview for our blog.
Have a nice week!
I am sorry I haven’t had a chance to get back to you. I will do by the end of this week.
Great to hear hear ?
Your lessons are great!
Thank you for watching and leaving your kind comment. 🙂
Thanks for yet another cool video! ??
Still having bad air in BKK? I mean pollution.
Thank you for your comment. Yes, the air in Bangkok is still bad and likely to continue until March.
You are very beautiful and talented. Keep up the good work. Waiting for new lessons
Thank you for your kind words. A new lesson will be ready this weekend. 🙂
You chose fun topic this time ?
And talking about sex, did you continue to have sex during your pregnancy? I heard it can even benefits you. As a young parent to be it would be useful to know ?
I don’t think she will answer this kind of questions, ayumi.
But I can tell you it does benefit usually. Enjoy your pregnancy! ??
(And talking about kids, I totally agree with Ulysee, Mod’s son looks soooo adorable!)
Hi mod, your site is truly great! Andvfrom what I heard from one of your students, you are great teacher too. ?
I’m just curious – how did you meet your husband? Was he your student? Can he speak thai? If not a secret ?
Sawatdee ka Tera, Thank you for your kind comment.
I met my husband 11 years ago, before I started Learn Thai with Mod.He has never tried to start learning Thai so he can’t speak Thai.:P
Oh what a shame. He should totally try.
It’s interesting how a “word” can be considered a bad word in one language to the point of a being Unspeakable! But in another language the same word can either mean something so different or just seem like a funny sounding word. I guess it really shows that there are really no bad words. Bad Thoughts, Bad Intentions, but no bad words.
Your lessons are always fun to watch and useful at the same time. Can’t wait to see a new one! Hopefully soon ??
Hi there, I enjoyed your fun lesson.
If you need any suggestions for another lesson then I suggest talk about clothes. You know stuff like pants, shirt, swimsuit, shoes, underwear, jackets…
Sawatdeeka Alison,
Thank you for your suggestion. I will do a lesson on this topic in the future. 🙂
This is great! I will totally recommend this site to my friend who wanna learn thai. ?
Btw kru mod, are you a model or something? ?
Sawatdee ka Delboi, thank you for your kind comment. I am happy to hear that you found my lessons useful in your Thai learning.
I am a private Thai language tutor, I have never done modelling. 🙂
Funny and useful video ??
But please – next time you make a video on a beach, you should be wearing swimsuits ? (if your hubby lets you do it)
Haha agreed, but probably he is not ok with it ?♂️ because lately she doesn’t post much photos in ?.
Nahh I don’t believe that. I think Mod can do whatever she wants, it’s her blog and her body. Let’s see. ?
I am sorry guys I don’t do video in my bikinis. I hope you still enjoy my lessons. 🙂
Of course we do, at least me! 😀
We come here to learn thai language anyway..
I think the point was that since you visit seaside areas so often, some occasional bikini photo (if not video) would make a nice bonus to your reviews, since you look so fit. No hard feelings, kru Mod. . ?
Why not? Too shy? ?
Ok, but you do wear bikinis when you go swimming? Just curious. Because when I visited Thailand most of local girls & women there didn’t wear bikinis on beach or pools. Some even wore t-shirt in the water. I was quite surprised.
Hii mod, sorry for off topic question but… how long did it take to become so elastic?? Some of your yoga poses are crazyyy! Is it from yoga training or you do some additional exercise?
Also, does it help you in the bedroom activities too? All those poses you can make. I bet your husband likes it hihi :)))))
Haha corey, do you really think Kru Mod would answer this one? No way! ?
Perhaps she is too shy. But I’m sure that question made her laugh a bit. ??
I bet it did hihi. Or she just ignored that part, maybe she thinks it’s rude
Why rude, it’s funny. Too bad she’s ignoring it ?
I started practicing yoga six years ago. I don’t do much additional exercise, just walking in a park or running on a treadmill once in a while. 🙂
I see. Good for you. I wish I was like that!
No comment on the second part (bedroom activities) ?? :)))))
I guess no ahahah
Kru mod, how to get a trial skype lession? do you still do those? You teaching is top level.
Sawatdee ka Chrip, thank you for your interest in learning Thai with us. We are happy to help you learn Thai. Please write us at adjima_t@hotmail.com to schedule a free trial lesson with us. We look forward to hearing from you!
Nice job!
Can I suggest another topic for your future video?
Please do. 🙂
My suggestion would be a lesson about body parts, if possible including the following:
– eyes
– nose
– stomach
– bellybutton
– butt
– breasts
– foot
– ears
You could just show that part of your body and tell the term.
Keep up the good work!
Loved the lesson. Very funny and more importantly very useful! Thanks very much.
I am very happy to hear that. 🙂
You are best language teacher I’ve seen online. ?
Btw your kid is so cute. Are you working on another one?? ?
Thank you for your kind comment. I appreciate it.
Regarding an extra family member, I am not ready. >.<
