Learn Thai Phrase : Single,Sole / Classifier +diaw / …เดียว

January 30th, 2012

Hi 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

Some Classifier to practice .

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 )

I have one daughter.

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

I have been to Thailand once.

Nobody wants to be sick but many times it happens. Sometimes you need to go to the hospital but sometimes it is just a little illness that you can buy some medicines at the pharmacy.

In this learning Thai blog, I would like to teach you some useful phrases that you can use when you need to go to a pharmacy.

ยา /yaa/ = medicine

แก้ /gɛ̂ɛ /= to fix, to cure

ยาแก้ / yaa-gɛ̂ɛ/ + symptoms = medicine which cures that symptom

ปวด /bpùat/ = pain, hurt

ยาแก้ปวด /yaa-gɛ̂ɛ -bpùat/= Painkiller

ปวดท้อง /bpùat- tɔ́ɔng/ = stomach ache

ยาแก้ปวดท้อง /yaa-gɛ̂ɛ-bpùat- tɔ́ɔng/= stomach ache medicine

ปวดหัว /bpùat-hǔa/= headache

ยาแก้ปวดหัว /yaa-gɛ̂ɛ -bpùat-hǔa /= headache medicine

ไอ /ai/ = cough

ยาแก้ไอ /yaa-gɛ̂ɛ -ai/ = cough syrup

หวัด /wàt/ = a cold

ยาแก้หวัด /yaa-gɛ̂ɛ -wàt/ = cold medicine

คัน /kan/ = itchy

ยาแก้คัน /yaa-gɛ̂ɛ -kan/ = antipruritic

The magic word when you would like to ask for somthing is ขอ / kɔ̌ɔ/+ _______ = May I have ______?

So if you would like to have cough syrup, you can say:

ขอยาแก้ไอค่ะ/ครับ /kɔ̌ɔ yaa-gɛ̂ɛ -ai kâ (kráp)/ = May I have cough syrup?

Hope this blog is useful for you.

ao yaa à-rai ká? (What kind of medicine do you want?)

Learn Thai Phrase: Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

December 19th, 2011

Hi everybody! Christmas is coming, I wish everyone have a fantastic time with your family!

In this blog, we will learn how to someone merry Christmas.

To say “Merry Christmas” in Thai is:

สุขสันต์วันคริสต์มาส /sùk-sǎn wan krít-mâat/

The word “สุขสันต์ /sùk-sǎn/” is like “happy” and “วันคริสต์มาส /wan krít-mâat/” is like Christmas day. Then สุขสันต์วันคริสต์มาส /sùk-sǎn wan krít-mâat/ means “Happy Christmas”.

Also if you would like to wish someone “happy new year”, in Thai we say:

สุขสันต์วันปีใหม่ /sùk-sǎn wan bpii mài/

The word “ปี /bpii/” means “year” and “ใหม่” /mài/ is “new” so สุขสันต์วันปีใหม่ /sùk-sǎn wan bpii mài/ means “happy new year”.

Another way to say happy new year is สวัสดีปีใหม่ /sà-wàt-dii bpii mài/.
