How would I say father in Thai? I know it's spelt phor but I have no idea how to pronounce it

[LearnThaiwithMod]

@prodigiesrule The vowel sounds like when you pronounce the word "law" in English, you just change 'L' to "P" and make it falling tone ;)

@LearnThaiwithMod Thanks:)

Dee jai na kap

@learnthaiwithmod

chok dee is good luck so can i say dee chok as lucky?

[LearnThaiwithMod]

@marnimarien

Choke-dee means both good luck and lucky. dee-chok has no meaning. Choke-dee ka:)

@learnthaiwithmod ive seen several thai movies that have used lak gorn na krap or ka and then sometimes followed by sawatdee

[LearnThaiwithMod]

@nocturnalserpent

I think they say words that make it sounds dramatic sometimes. I never heard anyone say la-gorn in real life. Sawatdee krap/ka is used by younger person to say good bye to the elder.

Kruu Mod,

Thank you for teaching current Thai.

Can you say sawasdee to say good bye? . You did not mention sawasdee in you video. Is it too formal? You stated above that people do not use "la-gon" anymore. Why is that? Is it too formal? It is interesting that 3 of my books still teach "la-gon" for good bye.

By the way, in last video, you said your sister was going to be in the following video. I did not see her :). Was she unable to make it because of the floods?

Thank you.

Sawatdee ka, I explain about using "sawatdee" for goodbye in my website, please see the link given under the video. For "la-gorn", it is obsolete, sounds very old-fashion.

My sister cannot make it because of the flooding. But I'll go back home to see her myself next weekend, so please stay tune:)

hi, how are you typing words with their tones (like in pob gan mai na: the up and down arrows above 'a' and 'o')? just curious

[LearnThaiwithMod]

@sushantap

Sawatdee ka, I use Microsoft Word and select insert symbols, then copy and past on my video.
