Sawatdee ka Jan, thank you for watching my lesson. I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed it. Please join my Facebook page as well, just search for Learn Thai with Mod. kop kun ka:-)

[@FingtamLanguages]

These conversation videos are my favorite, because they are a good source of Comprehensible Input!

[@rigz87]

Did my taxi driver just told me to "go die'? I just wanted a cheaper ride! :'(

[@ThaiwithMod]

Really? I am sorry to hear that.

[@rigz87]

LOL I meant the pronunciation of gaw-daai sounded like it. Thanks for the reply though :) Your videos are awesome, I will try and watch more before I leave for Thailand in February 2015.

[@terrythekittie]

The driver might have been half Australian / half Thai....'Gaw day mate'!

The most BEAUTIFUL 😮,SWEET, CUTE, SMART Teacher I have ever seen in my life!! 😍😍😍 I want to learn THAI Language from now ... !! 🙏

[@leiwang3530]

5555 paid 1000 baht and keep the change, should accept taxi driver's initial offer 200 baht

[@无敌师姐]

Lei Wang you are kun ta lo，funny person

[@BorneoFishingTV]

I love your role plays. It makes learning more fun. I am trying to learn this beautiful language so that the next time I visit Thailand I can have a conversation with the locals instead of wondering what they are saying. Keep up the good work.

[@doctorwatson1000]

That's a very realistic role play. Thais drive just like that !

[@ThaiwithMod]

Thank you for watching my video. I'm happy to hear that you liked it : )

[@rijutamisra7528]

hi Mod, how do i say if i want to say "keep moving, i know the way and will keep telling you"?

[@ThaiwithMod]

I was just trying to be a sloppy driver. Thank you for your concern, I am a good driver in real life : )

[@CaptainBruce-bz1sf]

One of your best videos! Thank you.

[@ThaiwithMod]

Thank you for watching, please subscribe.

[@caesarillion]

Wow. Thank you Mod. So much fun! Paul/Bangkok

[@Doofy576]

I have never seen a swag Thai woman before...

[@ThaiwithMod]

soi means side-street.

[@mwskiller1]

Thank you it's very useful...

[@jonasjohnsson4429]

I like the content of the video, but I give thumbs down because of the white text on the white background, impossible to read...

[@Alexsurlaroute]

J'aime beaucoup tes vidéos / I like your videos. J'ai cependant du mal avec la transcription phonétique, ce serait bien d'avoir le texte en commentaires de la video / I don't like the "english phonetic" , it would be great to have the discussion in thai in the comments area. ขอบใจ

[@justinkarlot6567]

could you please make some videos about conversation, about go shopping , and pass the police check points and romantic conversation , and asking love to girls , and talking with our lover . i am now learning thai in ur videos also , so i am please that u make videos but i wanna request that can u make it as i comment u please ?

[@yklam4804]

so much fun watching your video!! Very very cute role play!! Thank you very much!!

[@jomo9454]

I agree... what's the point of learning Roman script? You can't really just read it like English, you have to learn to read brand new (tones, vowels and consonants that aren't found in English), so why not use that effort to learn reading Thai?

[@retribution999]

How to tell the taxi to go straight forward?? Otherwise good video with useful phrases. Choke di na!

[@pjkcards]

When going back through and talking about what was said, it would be super helpful to have the Thai script instead of the Roman script (or both) - many don't have the Thai script which is annoying. It is such a bad habit to read the Roman script, and without the Thai script the lesson isn't as helpful as it could be, especially for me since I'm trying to learn to read as well. Thanks.

[@MrPeterpott]

In the first sentence about 'Go to the market' you have written dta laat with a low tone over laat. Law ling is a low class consonant, the vowel is long aa and the final consonant is daw dow abrupt, or dead, so the tone of laat must be falling tone. A low class consonant cannot have a low tone. I know it is a minor detail .

[@geoffphuketInPhuket]

Excellent, Mod. Only criticism, please don't use white text on the video - it's very difficult to read :-)

[@andyfreeman6942]

Mod this video make me feel like a cheap Charlie - The fare was only two hundred Baht but your brother gave you a eight hundred Baht tip. I cry haha Only joke another excellent video

[@jeeturathore2232]

i didn't got this video like others just bold words when speaks in thai to english so i easy to get all single words

[@jhibi41621]

Hi, Mod, The way you drive is very fun and make me enjoy a lot. But please take care when you really drive yourself.

[@troy5731]

an obscure market in the Baang Plad road area ?.......whatever.

[@jasonstallworth]

Very helpful! We took many taxis in Bangkok and Chiang Mai

[@alvinboi80]

tanon = road / avenue / street soi = lane / side street / alley soi is hence smaller than tanon

[@thkun33]

Mod is cute and like her teaching. Khob Khun krap

[@ThePhilosopher29]

Will you please put Thai character together in subtitle?

[@hannii8869]

Needed to learn to tell the taxi driver to slow the heck down

[@sumerolu]

The Taxi only asked for 200 Baht and the passenger said use the meter and in the end paid 1000 Baht? No one sensible gives an 800 Baht tip! What are you trying to tell Foreigners Mod?

[@川澄夜-w2h]

Easy, man...Mod doesn't make a living by costing you the earth in a taxi...

[@chrishaps6846]

very clever and funny , i enjoyed this lesson

[@bobbiegoestopattaya4239]

Thank you so much beautiful lady

[@YudIndonesia]

Thanks, Mod! This is very amazing video idea. So sweet ;) (both the content and you - no offense). Subscribed. Greeting from Indonesia.

[@TSOL_in_LOS]

Loving your vodeos. They are most helpful. Just moving to bkk from indianapolis. Im curious who does your editing? Kop khun krap!

[@phyothetpaing3035]

Thanks you alot very useful for me.

[@josegallegos9858]

The first scene is exactly what I experienced in Thailand...mainly in Bangkok. Constantly making sure they use the meter and bargaining prices with them. I leaned some Thai from KZbin videos and it did help when pronouncing avenue numbers for example (sukhumvit jet sip nuung). Traffic is insane but it flows.

[@billmakatowicz8603]

Hi Mod. Thanks a lot for these free videos. They are very useful even for my intermediate level. Please do write in thai as well if you have the chance. I see you have done it on some vidoes. I tried that e-book of yours but it did not work on my mac. I bet there is a issue there, huh...? By the way you are really, really cute, but I bet you hear that before LOL. Keep up the good work.

[@ThaiwithMod]

Apologies for the delay in my response. I don't know how I forgot to add Thai characters in this video. I will add it soon. Thank you for watching and your suggestion. ขอบคุณค่ะ :)

[@rajdeepmotilal]

Excellent video and very helpful. Thank you very much for the video!

[@ThaiwithMod]

Thank you for learning Thai from my channel. :)

[@DilbeardAlbeard]

Thanks for making this video. Very detailed explanation. But please be sure to use high contrast colors for words and background, I can hardly see some words which are in white color in a white background.

[@dilwaalaa1]

สนุกมาก :) ฉันชอบวิดีโอนี้ and the sound is very good as well :) , better than when the roleplay is shot outside.

[@MsSophart]

I like this. I will try to learn hard.

[@green9832]

Fuck me dead, she is gorgeous!

[@qwertyronson]

green9832 lol, don't you mean, 'fuck me, she is dead gorgeous!'

[@green9832]

qwertyronson Yeah it's the same thing, but that's some slang I picked up when I lived in Australia 55555555 (and the 555555 is Thailand text talk, it means lol).

[@Lee-yn1by]

green9832 Yes “fuck me dead” is the correct term.

[@natedevill8126]

Simp

[@crondigady]

I wish BKK taxi drivers looked like that! Good lesson. Especially the meter. I need to learn how to utilize “dai” in my Thai. I here it so often and I know it has many meanings.

[@chanmonintv6025]

Excuse me teacher if I want to buy the cheap clothes in Thailand which market I should go?

[@SadethCheng]

What I like about Thai taxis is that they all drive manual transmission!

[@sallykim6978]

goo~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~d!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@peterctong]

very useful!!!! thank you na

[@withoutmyheart]

LOL. Such dorky driving! But so cute! I bet you drive exactly like that in real life.

[@Roof_Pizza]

Ya missed the tolls. lol.

[@mhucky]

Very informative and helpful. Very practical too !!!! Love all your videos ^_^

[@metalstamping]

tanon = street tanon = road ? soi=street ?

[@dickheadcebu]

hello! this is very helpful. When I come back in bangkok :)

[@mavicityrelayson2924]

Oh my gosh, this will save my life (and my baht) next time I ride a taxi. Kob khun ka!

[@TheOppa777]

Nice video! Very helpful! Btw, your brother is cuuuute! 5555+

[@achardy8]

Hi Mod Great video , I love your style of teaching . This video was very entertaining :)

[@ozyardeny100]

Hi my name is Oz and i wanted to say that u great teacher . I was in thailhand a week ago and spoke thai very good including with the texi drivers. The only thing i saw that the girls afraid if u know too much thai because they think u knowe all . Thank u

[@alvinboi80]

i used soot สุด pretty often as i had to direct the final turn to the cabbie at the end of the soi.. hence: soot soi laew kwah (make a right turn at the end of the soi)/ soot soi laew sai (make a left turn at the end of the soi)

[@greg1563]

This was so fun to watch! 😎

[@okandy6375]

Your bro acting smooth.....

[@benchladek5733]

Geng VDO :) very useful survival thai language lesson. I hate when the taxi drivers try to negotiate fixed price. But now I will never have that problem. Korp Kun Krap. Pom rian maak jaak VDO :D subscribed

Yay! Another fun Video from our Kru Khun Suay :) And Mink is back. Thank you so much Kru Mod. I was just curious though, what's the status of the original channel? Has YT confirmed that it'll be reopened? Thank you again. :)

[@solsson]

Thanks for a great video, the roleplay was so funny :) Also Thai people usually call me Seven when they try to pronounce my real name. It is OK with me though but I will not carry around things to sell them :)

[@YouknowwhereHughgo]

Wheres your seatbelt? 😁

Hotest taxi driver ever.

[@aburyan19]

Kruu Mod, Thank you very much for this wonderful and very helpful lesson. YOu create very good scenarios and then take the time to explain every bit of it, which is very helpful.

[@mariastellasarmiento3634]

[@MrBananamatic]

Thanks for another fun video. My Thai is still really bad, but I am really enjoying your videos and finding them very helpful.

[@jchcmax]

Great info! Best part was the driver pressing the meter!! Ha ha.

[@sohrabjami5080]

Thank you very much,very nice and useful.

[@maimcbride560]

Great video! Thanks so much Kru Mod!

[@limirl]

This is your funniest video to date, I never get tired of watching it

[@CompanyBusinessCards]

Nice, thanks

[@jumangmendoza4793]

You are Pretty..

[@hamiasmai08]

What's the difference between ta-non & soi?

[@ThaiwithMod]

ถนน ta-non is road or streets, ซอย soi is a side-street branching off a major street.

[@VI-hp7te]

Brilliant! My favourite lesson so far! Though I wish you stop using "alternative" spelling one day ;) (like มั้ย, I mean the lesson is definitely not for advanced learners, so colloquial words like this are puzzling)

[@ThaiwithMod]

Thank you for watching. I am pleased to hear that you enjoyed my lesson. Hope you continue to follow my lessons in the future as well. :) As for the spelling of มั้ย mái , I personally feel awkward to write ไหม măi which doesn't match the actual pronunciation in spoken Thai. Sorry for making it puzzling.

[@orgami100]

All taxi drivers in Bangkok look like her..!

[@arjunchandele]

Nice video. I get a little confused when i come across sentences like: 'kuen' taang duan mai ? duan เดือน which i guess means month and has very slight pronunciation difference from the duan in 'taang duan'. Another example คืน khewn and 'kuen' . It would be nice if you could explain these small differences from time to time. Thanks

[@kaweejay]

ranvijay because the vowel -uan (duan=moon,month) doesn't exist in English and this sounds like you say 'der-aan'. (Er+aa) While 'duan' (quick,express,hurry) sounds like 'doo-waan' (oo+aa) Hope you can try master these vowels. And good luck!

[@kenshinzu_]

5555 talok dee. Loving the roleplay and of course the precise explanation Kru mod^^
