🇹🇭 Thai Language Tip: What does “ๆ” mean? In Thai, ๆ (ไม้ยมก – mai ya-mok) is used to repeat the word before it. Instead of writing the same word twice, Thai people use “ๆ” to make it shorter! For example: * ช้า ๆ (chaa chaa) = Slowly * เร็ว ๆ (reo reo) = Quickly / Hurry up! * เบา ๆ (bao bao) = Gently / Softly * บ่อย ๆ (boi boi) = Often 💡 Remember: When you see “ๆ” after a word, read that word twice! Example: พูดช้า ๆ หน่อย (phuut chaa chaa noi) = Please speak slowly.
