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.)

The word “awesome” or “that’s cool” in Thai we say, สุดยอด /sùt-yɔ̂ɔt/ (supreme) or เจ๋ง /jěng/.

You will hear the particle อ้ะ /âh/ at the end. This particle is normally used by teenagers.

B: เจ๋งอ้ะ /jěng âh/

Example2:
