Lesson Transcript

Hello, everyone! Welcome back to Thai Holiday Words. I'm Jay, and today we are going to do Coronation day. Let's begin!
1. วันฉัตรมงคล (wan chàt-mong-khon) “Coronation day”
วันฉัตรมงคลคือวันที่รัชกาลที่ 9 ขึ้นครองราชย์ (wan chàt-mong-khon khuue wan thîi rát-chá-gaan thîi gâo khûen khraawng râat) “Thai Coronation day is the anniversary of the coronation of King Rama 9.”
2. พระบรมราชาภิเษก (phrá baaw-rom raa-chaa-phí-sèek) “Coronation”
พระบรมราชาภิเษกของรัชกาลที่ 9 ของไทย ตรงกับวันที่ 5 พฤษภาคม 2493 (phrá baaw-rom raa-chaa-phí-sèek khǎawng rát-chá-gaan thîi gâo khǎawng thai dtrong gàp wan thîi hâa phrúet-sà-paa-kom sǎawng phan sìi ráauy gâo sìp sǎam) “The coronation of King Rama 9 took place on the fifth of May 1950.”
3. พระมหากษัตริย์ (phrá má-hăa gà-sàt) “King”
รัชกาลที่ 9 เป็นพระมหากษัตริย์องค์ปัจจุบันของไทย (rát-chá-gaan thîi gâo bpen phrá má-hăa gà-sàt ong bpàt-jù-ban khǎawng thai ) “King Rama 9 is the current king of Thailand.”
4. รัชกาลที่ 9 (rát-chá-gaan thîi gâo) “King Rama 9”
รัชกาลที่ 9 เป็นกษัตริย์องค์ที่เก้าของราชวงศ์จักรี (rát-chá-gaan thîi gâo pben gà-sàt ong thîi gâo khǎawng râat-chá-wong jàk-grii) “King Rama 9 is the ninth king of Chakri Dynasty.”
I keep saying King Rama 9, but actually, King Rama 9 has a name. I think in English they call him "Bhumibol Adulyadej", King Bhumibol Adulyadej. And in Thai, it's even longer, พระบาทสมเด็จพระเจ้าอยู่หัวภูมิพลอดุลยเดจมหาราช. ("His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej the Great")
It's long but that is actually his name.
Our king Rama 9 is actually the world's longest serving king. I didn't know that but I think that is something that we are proud of.
5. พิธี (phí-thii) “Ceremony”
พระราชพิธีฉัตรมงคลเริ่มตั้งแต่วันที่ 3 พฤษภาคม จนถึงวันที่ 5 พฤษภาคม (phrá râat-chá-phí-thii chàt-mong-khon rôoem dtáng-dtàae wan thîi sǎam phrúet-sà-paa-kom jon thǔeng wan thîi hâa phrúet-sà-paa-kom)
“The coronation ceremony begins on the third of May to the fifth of May.”
