Learn Thai: The word ‘Only’

February 1st, 2012 by prae No comments »
learn thai the word only

ผมจะมีเพียงแต่คุณคนเดียวเท่านั้น (I will have only you.)

 

There are several different words for ‘only……’ and they can occur in various combinations:

1) Subject + Verb + Object + Number + Classifier + เท่านั้น /tâo-nán/

2) Subject + Verb + Object + เพียง /piang/ + Number + Classifier (+ เท่านั้น /tâo-nán/)

3) Subject + Verb (+ เพียง /piang/) + แต่ /dtàe/ + Object + Number + Classifier (+ เท่านั้น /tâo-nán/)

4) Subject + Verb + Object (+ เพียง /piang/) + แค่ /kâe/ + Number + Classifier (+ เท่านั้น /tâo-nán/)

However, that the order ‘Number + Classifier’ is normally reserved when the number is ‘one’ and the word ‘เดียว /diao/ single’ is commonly used instead of ‘หนึ่ง /nùng/ one’. The use of ‘แต่ /dtàe/ but’ to mean ‘only’ is mirrored in the archaic English usage of ‘but’ in statements like “I have but three sons fair.”

For example;

ฉันจะดื่มเบียร์สี่แก้วเท่านั้น /chán jà dùum bia sìi gâeo tâo-nán/

= I will have only four glasses of beer.

พวกเขาเหลือเสื้อผ้าเพียงสองตัวเท่านั้น /pûak-káo lǔa sûa-pâa piang sǎwng dtua tâo-nán/

= They have only two clothes left.

ผมจะมีเพียงแต่คุณคนเดียวเท่านั้น /pǒm jà mii piang dtàe kun kon diao tâo-nán/

= I will have only you.

เรามีกระเป๋าแค่หนึ่งใบเท่านั้น /rao mii grà-bpǎo kâe nùng bai tâo-nán/

= We have only 2 bags.

เดียว ,คนเดียวHi everyone in this blog I have another Thai Adjective word  to say “ Single with  Noun “. You may  already  known about the pattern “ Noun + Number + classifier “ To tell number of Noun in Thai language . But when you want to tell  the single NOUN  we have  key word to use  is “  diaw / เดียว “ which is always comes after  classifier .

                    “Classifier +diaw / เดียว “    = One , Single Noun

         คน /  Kon /                =  people ( human being )

          คัน / kan /                 = car (rót/รถ )

          ครั้ง/ kráng /            = time ( occasion )

Example :

       1.chán mii lûuk-săao   kon diaw.   = ( chán mii lûuk săao nèung kon )

        ฉันมีลูกสาวคนเดียว =  ( ฉันมีลูกสาวหนึ่งคน )

       2.Jane mii rót kan diaw.=       ( Jane mii rót nèung kan )

           เจนมีรถคันเดียว = ( เจนมีรถหนึ่งคัน )

          Jane has one car.

         3.pǒm kәәi maa meuang  Thai kráng diaw    =( pǒm kәәi maa meung Thai nèung kráng )

            ผมเคยมาเมืองไทยครั้งเดียว = ผมเคยมาเมืองไทยหนึ่งครั้ง
