Hi! Welcome back to our Thai Talk article right here in this blog! You can go back and read our previous Thai Talk 1-16 to learn Thai and the useful phrases that you might need to know. And today’s article is how to say “Bon Voyage” in Thai.
There are a few phrases you can say to wish someone a good and safe trip in Thai language. I’ll just tell you the phrases only this time without breaking them out for you into each word. However, in case you really are interested and want to know more in details, make a request right here in the comment section.
The first phrase you can say “Bon Voyage” in Thai is “Khor Hai Dern Thang Doi Sawatdiphap”. This really think this one might be too long and too formal if you want to say it to your friends. Try the rest!
The second one you can just adapt from the first and make it shorter. At the mean time, you will make it sound less formal. You say “Dern Thang Doi Sawatdiphap”
And the last one is what I think most Thai people use it with friends and family. You just simply say “Thiaw Hai Sanook” which more like “have fun traveling” something like that.
Ok so now you know how to speak “Bon Vovage” in Thai. Stick with us for more Thai Talk lessons that we are putting in here continuously each month. Who knows you can learn to speak Thai in a boxing blog site. Enjoy!
There are many ways in Thai to ask to be friend with someone just like in English or in any other languages. In our Thai Talk article today, I’ll tell you as many as I can think of for now. However, you can just choose one to pass out the message of wanting to be friend with the others. So pick the one you think it’s the easiest.
Let’s start!
The first phrase you can say is “I want to be your friend”. In Thai we say “Pom/Chan Yak Pen Peuan Kab Khun”
Next is “Will you be my friend?”. We say “Pen Peuan Kab Pom/Chan Dai Mai”
“Can we be friends?” = “Rao Pen Peuan Kan Dai Mai”
“Let’s be friends!” = “Pen Peuan Kan Ter”
Just to remind you about our polite sentence endings: Krap and Ka. If you’re a guy, add “Krap” at the end of your sentence. If you’re a woman, use “Ka”.
Hope this helps a little! Next time when you get a chance to speak Thai with your Thai friends, don’t forget to use these phrases you learn from our Thai Talk. We will always teach you how to speak Thai not rushing it, but a little bit at a time.
Back to our Thai Talk. I hope what we have been doing here can help you a bit. We strongly believe that learning Thai just a tiny part or phrases can help you live in Thailand more comfortably. Don’t expect all Thai people to understand your language. So knowing a little bit of Thai will definitely help.
And what I think is best is to learn a little bit at a time and that is what we do here. We will teach you or basically just give you a phrase or a couple phrases to memorize at a time. No need to learn everything if you are not really into the language that much. Here we teach you just the thing you need to help you live in Thailand, though not perfectly. But hey, it’s better than nothing right?
Today phrase is to show you how to say “That is too hot for me”, not a girl (girls can’t never be too hot for someone I guess) but food. This is another thing you need to know about Thai people. They eat quite hot to hot food. Really it’s true that Thai food is very tasty but it might be too spicy sometimes for someone who’s not used to hot food to handle.
So it’s nice to know to say what is too hot for you. So the people who make food for you can go easy on the “legendary” Thai chili.
“It is too hot for me” in Thai we say “Mun Ped Pai Sumrub Pom/Chan” The vocab you might want to know here is “Ped” which means “hot” or “spicy”
Just that really easy I think. Again if you don’t come here regularly, Pom is a pronoun “I or Me” or guys and “Chan” is for girls. Enjoy!
Welcome to our Thai Talk, and wow it’s our 14th article already. This is where you can learn how to speak Thai for free without troublesome or tiredness. Here I teach you only the basic and really get right on the real conversations and dialogs used in Thailand. So whenever you get a chance to visit the country whether to train Thaiboxing or Muay Thai, you will get along with the people real fast. You can help us improve the article by telling us what you want to know or say in Thai that you think it’s really important to know or to survive here for quite sometimes.
I only teach you one or two phrases a day because there’s no use to make you memorize a lot of things because that will add more stress and won’t help improve learning skill.
The phrase of the day is “Who are you?” or when you’re frustrated said “Who the hell are you?”. I don’t think I have to explain when and with whom to use these phrases, so let’s get started.
“Who are you?”, the normal one, in Thai is “Khun Pen Khrai” and “Who the hell are you?”, the angrily said one, is “Khae Pen Khrai” or even impolite one is “Mueng Pen Khrai”, but that wouldn’t be so lovely to hear from a foreigner I think. So let’s stick with just “Khae Pen Khrai”.
From the phrases, you can see that in Thailand have different words for different levels of politeness. Just the word “you” can be said “Khun” the polite one, “Khae”, the less polite one, and “Mueng” the impolite one.
However you might hear the impolite word a lot in a group talk between friends because for them might be ok and sound like they are close. So you can use it when you are sure that you’re close to them only or when they start using those words with you.
Have fun practicing!
Welcome to our Thai Learning article. We named it Thai Talk because this will help you talk Thai not read or write. I really believe that talking or speaking a language to communicate is the most important method. You don’t need to know how to read or write if you just starting to learn a language especially when it’s one of the hardest languages in the world.
What I’m teaching you today is really useful when you go shopping. When you want to buy something is the showcase or wherever you can’t get the product by yourself and you will need to ask the seller to pick that up for you. If you know what that thing you want is called, that’s the best. But if you don’t, when you have no idea how to say it is Thai, this is why this lesson is quite useful. All you have to do is to say these following phrases.
I want this one = Ao An Nee Ka/Krap
I want that one = Ao An Nan Ka/Krap
It’s really ok to just say “I want this” “I want that” in Thai and it’s not rude at all because here you can see that we add “Ka or Krap” at the end of the sentence to add the politeness to it.
Now let’s take a look at the vocabularies you might want to learn from the phrases above.
Ao = to take, to want
An = a quantifier of thing like a piece
Nee = this
Nan = that
You can see that we don’t put the word “I” in front of our phrases. It’s not necessary to say the pronoun all the time in Thai. Really convenient but might sound a bit weird for you that’s all.
Practice and memorize this so you can use it whenever you need to.
