- Jack teaches you key Thai words and phrases for travelers!
Please note: These are just basics for people who would like to know a few key words and phrases while traveling. They are broken down into their simplest forms for quick learning. There are some things that are complex and take longer to learn, such as the subtleties between R and L, D and T, as well as B and P, all of which are interchanged often when using the English alphabet. So please just take this for what it is - quick traveler lingo! Happy travels!
We also filmed a video about Thai culture! • THAI CULTURE // Jack t...

@@nones8424 i'm jealous of u
@@adyira7081 haha no need laa...it can lern kann😂
Just want to point out that
1. Thais don't really use the following phrases in daily life.
GOOD MORNING: อรุณสวัสดิ์ (a-loon-sa-wad) 0:48
->We just say สวัสดีค่ะ/ครับ (sa-wad-dee ka/krub).
GOOD NIGHT: ราตรีสวัสดิ์ (la-tri-sa-wad) 0:57
->Instead, we say ฝันดี (fun-dee)
ฝัน meaning "dream",
ดี meaning "good".
GOODBYE: ลาก่อนค่ะ/ครับ (la-gorn-ka/krub) 1:06
->You can just say บาย (bye).
2. These three are used a lot!
HELLO: สวัสดีค่ะ/ครับ (sa-wad-dee ka/krub) 0:36
THANK YOU: ขอบคุณค่ะ/ครับ (kob-khun-ka/krub) 1:49
EXCUSE ME/SORRY: ขอโทษค่ะ/ครับ (kor-toad-ka/krub) 2:22
3. น้ำ (nahm) = water
ห้องน้ำ (hong-nahm) = bathroom
with ห้อง (hong) meaning "room".
So ห้องน้ำ literally means "water room, a room where you use water".
Another example is ห้องนอน (hong-nawn), which means "bedroom".
นอน (nawn) means "to sleep".
So ห้องนอน literally means "sleep room, a room where you sleep in".
Thank for your Response =) Making a Cheat Sheet to Learn Thai.... I'm just now learning the language =)
Thank you so much...
I'm a English Teacher now here in Sisaket Thailand and apparently mispronounced seashells in Thai. I think I said a bad word because the kids found it hilarious.
@@izaksteenkamp6103 I think the work you spoke is "Hoi" right? If so it has other meaning which means vagina
You can use those words, depends on occasion, but those words are formal

"I don't want Thai Language "
Me after watching 1 episode of 2gether the series.
"Jer-gun Tagalog, Sa wad dee ka Tine and Sarawat "
thats cute! 4th visit to Thailand last fall, the BL's helped me with many basic phrases!
I'm Thai and speak very basic conversational Thai, but this is a great little instructional video. If more people can find it, I think this would be very helpful to many travelers going to Thailand for the 1st time. I actually shared it on my Facebook page too. Good job! Jack is great.
+Don Jariyasunant Aw this is so nice to hear! I hope more people can find it too! :)
Thank you for confirming. I don't want to learn Thai and not understand due to the accents.
My grandma's Thai and she's gonna take me to Thailand with her so might has well learn some of my herritage haha
I think i should learn how to speak thai HAHAHAHAHA im a Filipino
2gether series here in our country now is bery popular HAHAHA
Samedt sis
doodler dongA Same !!! OMG ! I think it’s only me. It’s really popular in France too.
I've been studying Thai for a week now and yet there's still no Improvements XD btw I'm a filipino too but I speak Spanish but not that much took me months to learn learning 2 language at the same time is quite hard xd
No one knows about that series in Sweden but I do!!!
Yes bery popular😂
I really appreciate this video! I'll be traveling to Thailand in April and I have literally been watching this video about twice or three times a day just in order to learn some useful Thai before my arrival. Thank you!
WHY AM I TRYING TO LEARN THAI, IM NOT EVEN DONE WITH KOREAN LMAO
Same AHAHHAA
vibelyrics same hahahaha
Trueee
OMG YESSS ANYTHING FOR KPOP AND BL
@@vaishnavivenu5835 yes same lol HAHA
Thanks a lot. I have seen a few times this video, and I repeat the Thai words after you...... and now I remember almost all of them.
So I’m here because of 2gether the series and when he said cheers I was like CHON. I know it because of Sarawat
Currently in Thailand and despite me going many times, I've forgotten things like good morning and you're welcome. Excellent video. Every representative of each country should do videos teaching basic phrases like this.
This video is so helpful. I’m going to Thailand in a couple days and I’m really exited to know some basic words
Them, here because they want to learn:

Me after watching 2gether:
I love this video! and the way Jack says the words is just amazing to me. He's got the voice and aura that you will respect him as your teacher. His approach is friendly but authoritative at the same time. We will be back in Thailand tomorrow for the 3rd time. And this will add more confidence in me. I love Thailand and its people, especially the food! Aroy! I will watch more of your vids next time.
+Blue De Leon Tagorda That's so nice of you to say about Jack! Enjoy Thailand! It's such an amazing country!
Jack's instructions and enunciations are brilliant, easy to follow, and the tones are clear. Learning a few essential phrases certainly elevates the travel experience anywhere, especially in Thailand! At the very heart of most Thai people is the desire to be polite and helpful. When polite expressions are returned or initiated, what usually follows is sublime.
Thank you for uploading your excellent work.
This is probably the most useful Thai video I have found to repeated listen to before my trip.
Watching this video reminds me of what mylife in thailand before. I miss thailand. 😊
I'm spending a month in Thailand next month, so this is VERY useful. Thank you for sharing.
+ExploreList My pleasure! You're going to have a blast!
These basic phrases are very helpful to beginner Thai learners. I look forward to see more videos from you, Jack! Thank you!
Thanks sooo much for the intro, can't wait to visit from NYC.
I like this language! :)
As a Mexican, my mother tongue is Spanish and I also grew up with English and now I'm at an intermediate level of Japanese so if I'm able to go through with Japanese (which I think is one of the Top 5 most difficult languages) I know I'll be able to learn Thai. I'm excited 😀. Also, LOVE how this language has its own unique alphabet! Very few languages have that :)
I will watch this again. Some good tips on here. Good stuff.
Thanks for teaching, you're a big help of my relationship with Win Metawin. I'm Filipino and he's thai, were struggling cuz of language barrier. Thank you, you make our relationship more stronger! 💖
I only remember "say it with me" and sawadeeka.
this pop in my recommendation im watching 2gether the series
I’m in Bangkok right now and I feel I really need to know the basic words. Thank you !
Happy to help! Enjoy your trip!
Visiting thailand is like a tradition to me 😍 Love the people and the food
Thanks Mari....I frequently travel to Thailand. Your video helped me to understand Thai in much easier way.
Thank you bro. ,👍👍🙏🙏
I just watched together series and this just popped in my recommendations.
:Time to learn Thai!
Super useful video, thank you! I'm visiting Thailand next month and wanted to show respect and know at least some basics, you've made that incredibly achievable! Now to hope I can actually be understood when I attempt to speak ahha
kob-khun-ka! We will be in Bangkok soon - February 14!
Thank you for teaching. I look forward to learning Thai language.
As a Thai. I also enjoyed this Video. Good stuff.
Bo Siripa Aruenpong Hello
I wanna learn Thai because of 2gether the series haha
Same😂
*Everyone in comment section:
"BL series brought me here" 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you! I'm going there this month for a few days, so I wanted to learn basic courtesy phrases :D
The least you can do as a Tourist is to learn basic sayings.
I always try to learn basic words if i travel to foreign countries.
Thanks for helping me!
VERY VERY GOOD. It should be all one needs for a months visit.
I like the 2 and 3 word phrases best.Not the 1 liners ( because I am a idiot )
Jack, you are the best. I am taking this video to Thailand and I hope the Thai ladies at the food stalls don't start to laugh at me.
Ben Person one thing to consider.
you will get respect if you try nut screw it up,like asking for a bowl of white or mountain instead of rice .
but if you speak too well they will all be suspicious
I’m just learning this so I can understand what my baby be saying on instagram. His name is Bright.
One of the best way to teach, the video was well drafted, scripted and well placed text to understand..
M from Goa, very nice teaching...I'll surely learn this basic ...coz whenever I come across to any thai people...it will be helpful ...I found people across the world are beautiful. ❤
I realy like that you say it in english and then he say in thai.
I converted this to mp3 and now listen to it on my phone.
The reason why i'm watching this because of BL series😆
Thankyou for making this video, you are very easy to understand, I'm currently in Thailand and I will be watching this over and over. EVen though most Thai people I have met have spoken English, I will enjoy making the effort.
Thank you! Exactly what I needed! Great work!
Im just here cause i watch bls not because im traveling to Thailand 😂
MOST USEFUL VIDEO EVER. thank you
+Joshua D'silva So happy to help!!
+Mari Johnson can you help me also I want to learn Thai language
saleawy hey, I'm jack. Sorry I don't think I should teach anymore thai because I offended a lot of thai people. They get so mad and ashamed of me. Some even think that I'm not thai. Anyways I'm expert at cursing though lol
Very well done! I found it very easy to follow having been to Thailand once before.
Last year I visited Thailand. Thai people and language is very very polite.. land of smiles... Love this Country.....
This is very handy. Kob kuhn krup!
+JP Goes Global Mai pen rai! :)
When i watched this video i laughed a lot because some phrases in thai when it pronounced it has the same of some filipino phrases but it has different meaning and spelling just when it pronounced they sound alike :)...
but thank you for this video :) it helps a lot to know some new phrases in different language :)
Thank you for this video. It is good to have the English way of speaking translated for us. In England we do say “Good Morning” “Good Afternoon, Good evening” and “Good night”. We would not say “We are going to bed” to a stranger and if we said it to a friend or family member we would say “I am going to bed, Good Night”. This is not a lesson in how Thai people speak to each other, it is a lesson in translating the words the English use when they talk to each other and that is why it is so good. Thank you for the video, I have downloaded it and I am already getting on better when I use the basic Thai taught.
One other thing, I looked for the videos of the trolls who comment that you are doing it wrong, they had none. The reason we are watching a video is for pronunciation, writing corrections in the comments helps no-one, although I am sure it probably gives the commenters a very brief feeling of supremacy.
I love Thai language, because it 's so sweet-sounding !
*Watches BL series*
me:"How to speak thailand?"
"Sarawat and Tine Here i come" 😂
Sameee 😂😂😂
Great effort. Thank you
Thank you! Im going for a overseas school trip this november to chiang mai! A huge help!
Muchisimas gracias...Thanks a lot...You are such a nice teacher...
God bless you...
This is a great beginning to a beautiful language

@@jimitnewsman9771 do I have to know half of it if I'm half Thai? No so don't just say if your half then you should know 50% like thats crap

I am Thai but I’ve been watching this video 😀
Adorable! 😄
Im going to Bangkok for the first time in 2 days, thank you for this video!
Hows the weather?I'll be there in a couple days!
I never say "Mai-phed"
Always "Phed mak"!
What is all this khrap about
it does your speech to more gentle.
but "khrap" is only used by boys and "ka" by girls
as an honorific used by Thai ppl to show politeness to the older ppl or in a formal situation
He was making a joke guys LOL
and they were saying, in a POLITE way, that it was not funny, and that is true.
I used this video back in 2019 when I traveled to Thailand and my most used phrases were hello, thank you, do you speak English, yes, no, sorry/excuse me, and how much- I just wanted to come back and thank you for teaching us these essential phrases, I still remember most of them to this day and I cannot wait to visit Thailand again and brush up on some more Thai. Thank you ❤
That’s so cool to hear! So happy the video was useful. Hope you get back to Thailand soon!
I'm from Malaysia.I just started watching Thai tv series.I wish there's more videos.Pls be my teacher.
Why is this on my recommendations?
Ohhh maybe the FBI set it up after seeing how inlove and hapoy I was while watching Thai BL HAHAHAHAH

Khup Khun ka. I was adopted from Thailand at an early age, adopted by Swedish parents and trying to learn Thai
Great way to learn Thai.
Perfect 👌.
Thanks
I watch Thai dramas everyday on u tube and i love Thai language very much saint P is my fav actor and there r many i watched almost all the series im really dreaming to go thailand
saint haha i know him
@@yfan2138 haha u must be thai
a teenager Saint is famous everybody knows
@@yfan2138 um i only assumed by ur name but i really like him hes so cute😍
a teenager haha cause his drama unexpect love？ i have watch that drama but not attract to me
When he says "now say it with me" i get Dora the Explorer vibes. 😅
this vid came in the right time. visiting Bangkok next week. wooohooooooo....
I understand 80%. Thanks for additional knowledge. 😊
Yes he is a fast talker "Slow Down"....
Small but important correction :) Vegetarian (eats eggs & dairy products) is **mangsawirat**, "Jay" is vegan (no garlic, no onion, no beer either!)
Then that is not vegatarian as they still eat garlic
Why do vegans not eat garlic? It's not animal product?
Thank you very much. Then I'm a mangsawirat. Glad I learned it before going to Thailand or they wouldn't have brought me eggs for breakfast :P
@@spiritobscura no-i think you are an idiot
@@Sk1tz092 because most Thai are buddists. They believe that onion, garlic spicy flavor give you hot temper so they usually subtitute those flavor with cilantro or leeks. I know its weird. Buddist vegan is a bit different than other vegan.
Best lesson yet easy to follow
haha I have lived in Thailand for almost two years and I will leave in 6 months. Now I finally start to learn Thai. Thank you Khun Khru.
