ขอบคุณค่ะ

[@Dijahtal_Arts_Not_Digital_Arts]

Good words good idea comparing these phrases to one's we already know

[@jasereid647]

Wow. After a year of learning I surprised myself by knowing all these. However If you ask me where I’m at I’d still class myself a beginner.

[@dekibagus77]

Khru, if I may request. Please make more content of phasa Isaan, if you don't mind. Coz I like it. Khob khun naa krub khru.

[@Dreacon34]

this video just made me subscrive and hit the bell icon. fantastic.

[@ThaiwithMod]

Awww...Kop kun ka! Thank you for subscribing!

[@thescallytrader]

Hi Pear... Can you recommend any Thai Language schools where I can use a student visa with. The more south the better. Phuket/Krabi area?

[@gaemlinsidoharthi]

🙏 🙏 Still an early beginner here, but it feels like “ก่อน” from “ลาก่อน” and the irregular “gone” have a common Indus/Brahman ancestor back there somewhere in the depths of time. Doesn’t it? Whatever the reason, these little similarities are always a pleasure to stumble across.

[@vannizaniboni3502]

1: I thought "yaak" was too colloquial and quite rude to use outside a friends' or familiar circle, and that "tonkan" was the polite way to express the verb "want." 2: I thought "laai" was a Lao/Esarn word for the Thai equivalent "maak." Thank you.

[@jov.642]

Thank you for the lesson Kru Pear!!! I'm not there yet 😁 but I'm getting there! Yey!

[@chunleefook4033]

Really useful words to learn, thank you Kru pear.

[@kevinburley7030]

Alternative for n.10 - Bpai gon der

[@marcoolinho]

You are my fav teahcer, I must say. I didn't hear your baby in the background in this lesson. I miseed that. Great leason with lots of examples.

[@ThaiwithMod]

Pear and I are happy to hear that. Thank you for your kind comment. :)

[@thebeast1434]

Could I use" pop gan Mai " as well as "her gan"?

[@MeMe-eb8pe]

How much do you charge for a zoom group?

[@nathanvega4986]

Regarding choei-choei, can this word be used to say that you are making something make-shift or temporary?

[@ThaiwithMod]

Another meaning of "cheoi-choei" is "just do one thing and not more than that" Example: ผมดูเฉยๆ /pom duu cheoi-choei/ I am just looking (not going to buy) เขานอนอยู่บ้านเฉยๆ /kao nawn yuu bâan cheoi-choei/ He is just laying at home (not being active).

[@jasonandmint4312]

Wow really easy, how do I join your zoom group for beginners

[@ThaiwithMod]

Sawatdee ka Jason, thank you for your interest in joining our group class. Can you please write us to sign up at [e-mail]? Alternatively, please leave your email address here if it is convenient for you and I will write you to discuss more details.

[@ashteroid85]

Very informative, very useful lesson. Yes i'm one of these guys who used laa gon alot :(( But I would like to correct you too. Please don't say "this word IS MEAN ........." that is absolutely incorrect, wrong grammar. Correct way: "this word MEANS ......". example: 'gon means before' or 'the meaning of gon is before'

[@kwidid23]

Pre beginner

[@teckin139]

Pleased to say I know and use all of these words.

[@ThaiwithMod]

ดีมากค่ะ Dii maak ka!

[@trevorsmith7753]

Seems to be a lot of differences between traditional Thai textbooks and colloquial speech, e.g. laa-gawn as goodbye for ever ... but is it really inappropriate with a stranger?

[@ThaiwithMod]

Yes, what we teach can be used to talk with anyone in everyday life . If you say "laa-gawn", Thai people might be laughing because it sounds really ancient.

[@nduduzoblose4355]

I knew 5 of the words, so what does that make me? Beginner or intermediate?

[@romerernesto6122]

I didn't expect and got shook in No. 10, I used to say before Laa gawn Kub to a friend! 5555. I'm so sorry 😔🤣

[@ThaiwithMod]

I am glad that you have learned to say the right phrase. ;)

[@vickocambodia8349]

Isn’t ลาก่อน used at all if we want to sound extra-formal, even if we are not saying good bye for ever? In any case wouldn’t พบ กันไหมครับ to เจอกัน in a formal circumstance, rather than a casual one?

[@jov.642]

Is เหร่อ the same with ป่ะ? What's the difference? Thanks in advance! 🙏🙏🙏

[@Niyapaan007]

เหรอ more use in questioning. ป่ะ can be use in question or asking ie. กินป่ะ (lets eat?) อยากไปป่ะ (you wanna go?) ป่ะ is informal better use with friends.

[@jov.642]

@@Niyapaan007 very insightful! Thank you!

[@sadpuppy413]

Tranquila. No pasa nada...

[@ChrisBird1]

Clear as mud 555

[@thuaphi]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@donalain69]

555 telling people not to use „láew“, and then use it yourself in the next sentence :)

[@veryboy66]

i never made mistakes as mentioned above^^

[@ThaiwithMod]

Excellent!

[@janellerhian5277]

Only แล้วก็ and เจอกัน are the slang word, i only know 5555+

[@MrX-wg9hx]

they are informal words, not slang

[@aku7598]

I'm a slow learner.

[@ramhardy6968]

To explain ก็เลย better to English speakers, use “therefore” instead of “that’s why” because “therefore” can be used after the pronoun as in “I therefore...”.

[@ThaiwithMod]

Thank you for your clarification. :)

[@samsonwilkinson8090]

You can't 'considerate' yourself. But you can 'consider' yourself...

[@christineM1180]

Why are you using Pom? As a woman, shouldn't you be using 'chan' ?
