As you might remember that in my last blog, we talked about the Thai slang เหวี่ยง /wìang/.

In this blog we will talk about the word วีน /wiin/. It is similar to เหวี่ยง /wìang/but more seriously.

The slang วีน /wiin/ is similar to “throw a tantrum” in English. It happens when you are angry and show your anger directly without consider about anything.

Hope you enjoy Thai slang!

You can practice with your Thai friend! Have fun!

The Thai slang for today is เหวี่ยง /wìang/.

The direct meaning of the word เหวี่ยง /wìang/ is “to cast” or “to hurl”.

But we use เหวี่ยง /wìang/ as a slang to explain the action from your body language or your words to show that you disapprove something or you are angry at someone.

For example:

อย่าเพิ่งพูดอะไรนะ เขากำลังเหวี่ยง /yàa pә̂әng pûut à-rai ná. káo gam-lang wìang/

Don’t say anything yet. She is furious now.

ผมทำอะไรให้คุณ ทำไมคุณต้องเหวี่ยงผมด้วย /pǒm tam à-rai hâi kun? tam-mai kun dtɔ̂ɔng wìang pǒm dûay?/

What did I do bad to you? Why are you upset with me?

What about you? คุณเคยเหวี่ยงไหม? /kun kәәi wìang mái?/

Hope you enjoy Thai slang!

You can practice with your Thai friend! Have fun!

The main modal verbs used for expressing ความเป็นไปได้(Possibility) และความน่าจะเป็น(Probability) are:

อาจ(จะ) /àat (jà)/     = may/might

คง(จะ) /kong( jà)/   = will probably, sure to

ย่อม(จะ) /yɔ̂m( jà)/   = likely to

มัก(จะ) /mák(jà)/   = tends to, usually

เห็น(จะ) /hěn(jà)/   = seems that

They all occur before the main verb and are negated by the pattern ‘modal verb (+ jà) + mâi + verb (phrase)’.

For example;

อาทิตย์หน้า ฉันอาจจะไปเกาะภูเก็ต /aa-tít nâa chán àat jà bpai gɔ̀ puu-gèt/

(Next week I may go to Phuket.)

ฉันหวังว่า เขาคงจะชอบ /chán wǎng wâa káo kong jà chɔ̂ɔp/

(I hope she will probably like it.)

ของแพงย่อมจะคุณภาพดีกว่า /kɔ̌ɔng pɛɛng yɔ̂m jà kun-ná-pâap dii-gwàa/

(Expensive items are likely to be better quality.)

เขามักจะพูดแบบนี้บ่อยๆ /káo mák jà pûut bɛ̀ɛp níi bɔ̀i bɔ̀i/

(He tends to talk like this often.)

เห็นจะยาก /hěn jà yâak/

(That seems difficult.)
