6. To check if you say formal or informal words in conversational Thai?
The nature of Thai language: some Thai words are used differently when Thais use in polite/formal way and casual way/daily life conversation. Mostly, you will see it obviously when you compare between words in conversational Thai and in writings or signs. Here are some examples:
1) So = (เลย loey) & [จึง jueng]
2) Wait a minute = (แป๊บนึง bpaeb nueng) & [สักครู่ sak kroo]
3) Although = (ถึง tueng) & [ถึงแม้ว่า tueng mae waa]
4) Eat = (กิน gin) & [ทาน taan, รับประทาน rab bpra taan]
5) Money = (ตังค์ dtang) & [เงิน ngern]
6) Purse = (กระเป๋าตังค์ grabpao dtang) & [กระเป๋าเงิน grabpao ngern]
7) Change = (ตังค์ทอน dtang torn) & [เงินทอน ngern torn]
