| Hello, everyone! Welcome to Top Words with me, Jay. Today we are going to do The 10 Lines You Need For Introducing Yourself. Ok, let's begin! |
| 1. เธเธฑเธเธกเธฒเธเธฒเธเธเธฃเธฐเนเธเธจเนเธเธข (chวn maa jร ak bprร -thรชet thai) "I'm from Thailand." |
| Iโm Jay, and Iโm from Thailand, specifically from Bangkok. |
| You can use this sentence to introduce yourself. |
| 2. เธเธฑเธเธชเธเธธเธเธเธฑเธเธเธฒเธฃเธเธฑเธเนเธเธฅเธ (chวn sร -nรนk gร p gaan fang phleeng) "I enjoy listening to music." |
| What kind of genre do you like? |
| For me I like pop and acoustic. I know not many people love acoustic, itโs very niche, but I love it. In Thailand we have all types of genre, like, thereโre a lot of artists in Thailand. My favorite is called Stamp. Yes, itโs a stamp on a letter, but thatโs the name of the artist, and heโs very good, you should check it out. |
| 3. เธเธฑเธเธญเธฒเธขเธธ 26 เธเธต (chวn aa-yรบ yรฎi-sรฌp-hรฒk bpii) "I'm 26 years old." |
| So เธเธฑเธเธญเธฒเธขเธธ (chวn aa-yรบ) is โI amโ, and then you put your age in between, and then you end with เธเธต (bpii), which is โyears oldโ. |
| So เธเธฑเธเธญเธฒเธขเธธ 26 เธเธต (chวn aa-yรบ yรฎi-sรฌp-hรฒk bpii) "I'm 26 years old." |
| In Thailand, girls prefer not to tell their age, I mean if they are young, itโs fine, but if they are a bit older then they donโt feel comfortable to say that. |
| 4. เธเธฑเธเธญเธฒเธจเธฑเธขเธญเธขเธนเนเนเธเธเธฃเธธเธเนเธเธเธฏ (chวn aa-sวi yรนu nai grung-thรชep) "I live in Bangkok." |
| Luckily, my place in Bangkok is in the metropolis area, so itโs around the train station, so itโs very convenient for me to travel around, but as you know Bangkok is very huge, so if you live somewhere further away, then thereโs a problem for traveling around Bangkok. And I used to have that problem before, because when I was younger I lived quite far away from the heart of Bangkok. |
| 5. เธเธฑเธเนเธเนเธเธเธฃเธน (chวn bpen khruu) "I'm a teacher." |
| เธเธฑเธเนเธเนเธ (chวn bpen) is โI amโ, and then followed by your occupation, for example, โI am still a studentโ, I would say เธเธฑเธเนเธเนเธเธเธฑเธเนเธฃเธตเธขเธ (chวn bpen nรกk-riian) โIโm a student.โ |
| 6. เธเธฑเธเนเธเนเนเธฃเธตเธขเธเธ เธฒเธฉเธฒเนเธเธขเธกเธฒ 1 เธเธต (chวn dรขai riian phaa-sวa thai maa nรนeng bpii) "I've been learning Thai for a year." |
| เธเธฑเธเนเธเนเนเธฃเธตเธขเธเธ เธฒเธฉเธฒเนเธเธขเธกเธฒ... (chวn dรขai riian phaa-sวa thai maaโฆ) โIโve been learning Thai forโฆโ |
| And then if you have been learning Thai for 2 years, 3 years, then you just put that at the end. |
| 7. เธเธทเนเธญเธเธญเธเธเธฑเธเธเธทเธญเนเธ (chรปue khวawng chวn khuue Jee) "My name is Jay." |
| This one is pretty easy, huh? |
| Jay is actually my nickname, and half of my real name and my surname, but Thai people usually call each other by their nicknames. |
| I mean, if you have a Thai friend you would understand this, because Thai names, common Thai names are very long, so itโs very difficult to remember, thatโs why we have nicknames. |
| 8. เธซเธเธถเนเธเนเธเธเธฒเธเธญเธเธดเนเธฃเธเธเธญเธเธเธฑเธเธเธทเธญเธเธฒเธฃเธญเนเธฒเธ (nรนeng nai ngaan-ร -dรฌ-rรจek khวawng chวn khuue gaan-ร an) "One of my hobbies is reading." |
| I love drawing, I have it on blogs, and I love writing, so thatโs my hobby. So what is yours? |
| 9. เธเธฑเธเนเธฃเธตเธขเธเธ เธฒเธฉเธฒเนเธเธขเธเธฒเธ Thaipod101.com (chวn riian phaa-sวa thai jร ak Thaipod101.com) "I'm learning Thai at Thaipod101.com" |
| I study other languages, for example, Japanese and English, this is a very useful website. |
| 10. เธเธฑเธเนเธชเธ (chวn sรฒot) "I'm single." |
| This one is quite funny but if youโre close to the person then you can use it. |
