      Thank you for your question. This question word can be pronounced in two different tones (low tone and high tone), it depends on the speaker’s feeling. Usually when the speaker shows that they are surprised, they pronounce the question word in high tone i.e จริงป่ะ?!

    Dear Team Mod!

    thank you for useful video lesson of 2020 and hope to see some more in 2021! I especially like your vlogs and photos from your trips and awesome beaches and exotic markets. It makes me feel a bit sorry I can’t be there now but also feels good to see it during cold winter in Europe.. Anyway hopefully covid situation will improve and traveling will be easier this year.

    Hi mod, I have been following your awesome video lessons for a while and have 2 questions.

    1.) did you get interview questions for my friend’s (Polly) blog? We are hoping you can answer them 🙂

    2.) how does this free assessment test look like? I’m interested in taking one and then I can maybe join the online class.

    Thanks and happy 2021 to you and yours and your lovely team!😋

      Sawatdii ka, thank you for your message. I have received the interview questions, but I think some questions are odd so I am sorry I can’t answer them.

      Please write us at learnthaiwithmod@gmail.com and we will send you the assessment test. Kop kun ka. 🙂

        Thank you for your reply, kru Mod,

        1.) about the interview questions, yes some of the questions were sent to us by our followers and your fans/students, so they might be bit unusual. 🙂 If you don’t feel like answering some of them, just ignore those and answer other that you can, ok?

        2.) All right, thank you for the feedback on the assessment test, will def check out this option! So if I get it right, based on the results of that test, you would be able to tell me which level am I and which online class would be suitable for me?
