How to say what’s your name? in Thai

First of all, let’s learn some vocabulary

what = a-rai
Is  = kue
your = khong khun
name = chue

To translate directly from English to Thai, we will have the sentence like
“chue khong khun kue a-rai”
Well, this is not wrong , you will still get the answer from the listener.
But to speak in the same way as Thai native speakers, we don’t use that sentence. 
To ask for someone’s name, we will simply say

khun chue a-rai

literally means “You Name What”

The same thing goes  with “surname”.

Surname or last name , in Thai we say “naam sa gun”

Now , can you tell me how to ask “What’s your surname?”.
I give 3 seconds to think.  3 … 2 …. 1 
time’s up. Yes, you’re right. 
The answer is
khun naam sa gun a-rai

When you answer these questions, you can simply tell your name or surname straightaway.

ねーねー、ネットフリックスのラブイズブラインド 日本バージョンみてる？
2月15日から配信（はいしん）されてて、もう全（ぜん）エピソード配信されてるんだけど、私と友だち ドはまりしてるの。

Hey, have you seen the Japanese version of Love is Blind on Netflix?It's been on since February 15th, and all the episodes are already available, and me and my friends are really into it.

声（こえ）だけで結婚相手（あいて）をきめるんだけど、ほんとみんな見てみて。
さいしょは、このテレビ楽しいのかな～？って思ってたんだけど、どんどん沼（ぬま）ったんだよね。

It's about deciding who to marry based on voice alone, and everyone should watch it.At first, I wondered if I would enjoy this TV show. At first, I was wondering if it would be fun, but then I got more and more hooked.

私が沼（ぬま）ってたときにちょうど全（ぜん）エピソード配信（はいしん）だったからマジでよかった。あれ、毎週（まいしゅう）配信はけっこうきついよ。もう次が気になって気になって仕方（しかた）なくて、もう次！次！ってかんじ。ネタバレしないように、くわしくはいえないけど、時間があるときに見てみてね。

I'm really glad that all the episodes were available when I was swamped.It's pretty hard to get through every week. I couldn't stop thinking about the next one, and I just couldn't stop thinking about it. Next! That's how I feel.
I can't tell you much about it so as not to spoil it, but you should check it out when you have time.

ちなみに、その出演者（しゅつえんしゃ）たちの友だち役（やく）で「テラスハウス」の人とか「あいのり」の人とか出てきてびっくりしたんだよね。いっしゅん、あれ？って目うたがっちゃった。

By the way, I was surprised to see people from "Terrace House" and "Ainori" as the friends of the actors. For a moment, I couldn't believe my eyes.

ラブイズブラインドはアメリカバージョンもあって、シーズン1とシーズン2があるんだけど、私はアメリカに住んだことがないから日本バージョンのほうが楽しかったかな～。

There's also an American version of Love is Blind, with season 1 and season 2, but I've never lived in America, so I think I enjoyed the Japanese version more.

九州男児（きゅうしゅうだんじ）っていうことばが出てきたり、日本の文化の勉強にもなりそうって思った！九州男児っていうのは、そのまま九州出身（しゅっしん）の男性（だんせい）のことなんだけど、性格（せいかく）とかをあらわすときにつかうことばなんだよね。もし聞いたことなかったらググってみてね！

I thought it would be a good way to learn about Japanese culture, like the word "Kyusyu Danji"!The "Kyusyu Danji" refers to a man from Kyushu, and is used to describe his personality. If you've never heard of it, please Google it!
