Functional Languages

สวัสดีค่ะทุกคน ไม่ได้เจอกันนานมาก มากกกกก แบบ กอ ไก่ ล้านตัว 55555

ฉันคิดว่าเราไม่ได้เจอกัน 1 ปีแล้วนะคะ

Hi everyone!! I know it’s been a loooong long time since we met on this channel. I’m so glad I can finally do this again.

This is 6th Episode of Thai T-la-nid Podcast and we are going to learn five expressions that you can use when you see someone after a long time. Ok, เริ่มกันเลยค่ะ!! Let’s go!

1. ไม่ได้เจอกันนานเลย (mâi-dâai jer gan naan loiie) = Long time no see! 

ไม่ได้ (mâi-dâai) + verb = didn’t do sth
เจอกัน (jer gan) = to meet each other 
เลย (loiie) = at all, totally, extremely 


2. เป็นยังไงบ้าง (bpen yang-ngai bâang) = How are you? How have you been?
เป็น (bpen) = to be
ยังไง (yang-ngai) = how 
บ้าง = an ending particle (when you expect multiple answers or when the answer can be anything)


3. สบายดีไหม (sà-baai-dee mái) = Are you doing well? Have you been well?
สบายดี sà-baai-dee = to be well
ไหม (mái) = yes-no particle


4. คิดถึงมาก (kít-tĕung mâak) = I miss you. I missed you.
คิดถึง (kít-tĕung) = to miss 
มาก (mâak) = very


5. คิดถึงกันไหม (kít-tĕung gan mái) = Do you miss me/each other? 
กัน (gan) = each other


Now let’s repeat again.

1. ไม่ได้เจอกันนานเลย  (mâi-dâai jer gan naan loiie) = Long time no see.
2. เป็นยังไงบ้าง (bpen yang-nagi bâang) = How are you? How have you been?
3. สบายดีไหม (sà-baai-dee mái) = Are you doing well? Have you been well?
4. คิดถึงมาก (kít-tĕung mâak) = I miss you. I missed you.
5. คิดถึงกันไหม (kít-tĕung gan mái) = Do you miss me/each other?

All right, you can choose some of theses expressions in you conversation with someone depending on your relationship. Hope this episode is helpful for you. 

The transcript is in the description. Check it out if you want to read along or see the meaning of each word. Have a great day and see you again soon! Soon...yes!! 😂 

Bye-bye!!

Are you ready to get that idiom monkey off your back and learn 7 more idiomatic expressions to help you improve your IELTS band score?

The idioms in this podcast are quite useful. They should add another string to your bow. In our IELTS speaking exam we should also learn how to paraphrase. Learning how to paraphrase adds a really important string to your bow, as well. In order to gain a band score 6, it’s important to attempt to paraphrase as well as use connectives. Using connectives, like therefore, however, and to be honest, can add another string to your bow.

When we know how to use idioms, we can improve our IELTS band score, because it’s important to use some less common idiomatic vocabulary in your IELTS exam. Idioms are very common and used in everyday daily life. As a rule of thumb, they help the examiner to know if you have spent time studying common idiomatic phrases.

So, keep your chin up. And keep studying. Because idioms are easy to learn. You just have to take the time to learn them, and practice using them. Don’t let learning idioms worry you, because they really are fun. They won’t get you into hot water. Learning idioms cannot get you into trouble. On the contrary, they will show the IELTS examiner that you are dilligent, studious, and hard working. Nobody’s going to hit the roof just because you’ve learned a few idioms. Of course not! No one is going to be angry with you for studying idioms! They are a vital part of your English language skills. Native English speakers use idioms day in, day out.

Don’t forget to take the quiz and learn the meanings of the idioms in this podcast. 

And don’t forget to book a lesson with me, so I can help you get the IELTS band score you need. And if you dont know many idioms, dont you think it’s time to get that monkey off your back?

Episode 111 concludes the series by exploring the profound spiritual dimension of language learning. This final episode moves beyond material gains to examine how the journey of learning a language cultivates mindfulness, builds resilience in the face of life's impermanence, and serves as a transformative practice of personal growth. Discover how embracing failure in a new language can heal the fear of failure in life, and how the ultimate goal isn't fluency in a foreign tongue, but a deeper fluency in the language of your own soul.

What is the true, lasting gift of learning a language? It's not what you think. 🕊️

In the FINAL EPISODE (111) of 111 Tips for Learning a Language, we go beyond hacks and fluency to uncover the secret truth: language learning is a profound spiritual practice.

In "The Unspoken Home," we explore:
✨ How making mistakes heals your soul
🌱 Why the journey matters more than the destination
🌀 How to find a solid foundation in life's chaos through learning
💖 The ultimate reason to keep going, long after the material rewards fade

This isn't just an ending. It's an invitation to a new beginning.
