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.

日本では外食（がいしょく）は高（たか）いし、栄養（えいよう）が偏（かたよ）るから自炊（じすい）が一番（いちばん）良（よ）いと考（かんが）える人が多い気がする。あっさりしたメニューの次（つぎ）の日は味（あじ）の濃（こ）い献立（こんだて）にしたり、和食（わしょく）が続（つづ）けば、中華（ちゅうか）料理（りょうり）や韓国（かんこく）料理・イタリアン風（ふう）など様々（さまざま）な国（くに）の料理も作（つく）ったり、色（いろ）んな料理を作るために家（いえ）に常備（じょうび）している調味料（ちょうみりょう）の種類（しゅるい）もかなり多い。料理好（ず）きなら分かるが、料理することが苦痛（くつう）なら作らなければいいのに、なぜここまで頑張（がんば）るのか。

〈#69〉5月31日火曜日　ごみゼロの日　中学生が清掃活動

When the end of the working week arrives, it can be a little harder to keep going.

If you work from Monday to Friday, you might find yourself thinking about the weekend as your brain and body get ready to rest. You may feel that you're getting less work done.

You might even feel this way near the end of each work day.

And a study from the US has found that yes, it's true — we aren't as productive and we make more mistakes in the afternoons, especially on Fridays.

While most of us could probably have guessed that result, the researchers said most studies in the past have just asked workers about their feelings related to their productivity.

But this one actually used data based on computer use, including how fast people typed and the numbers of typos they made.

The researchers, from Texas A&M University, looked at the computer use of 789 employees working from the office of a big company in Texas.

They studied them for two years and looked at their computer use at different times of the day and week.

And they found that computer use "dropped significantly" on Fridays.

One of the researchers, Taehyun Roh, said: "Employees were less active in the afternoons, and made more typos in the afternoons — especially on Fridays."

The authors added that results like this should encourage bosses to think about flexible working arrangements or four-day working weeks to get the best from their employees.
