How to introduce yourself in Thai for beginners

Thai for Everyone with Kru Robert

Learn Thai : How to introduce yourself 

当我还只有六岁的时候，在一本描写原始森林的名叫《真实的故事》的书中，看到了一副精彩的插画，
Once when I was six years old I saw a magnificent picture in a book, called True Stories from Nature, about the primeval forest.
画的是一条蟒蛇正在吞食一只大野兽。
It was a picture of a boaconstrictor in the act of swallowing an animal.
页头上就是那副画的摹本。
Here is a copy of the drawing.
这本书中写道：“这些蟒蛇把它们的猎物不加咀嚼地囫囵吞下。”
In the book it said: “Boa constrictors swallow their prey whole, without chewing it.

然后就不能再动弹了；它们就在长长的六个月的睡眠中消化这些食物。
After that they are not able to move, and they sleep through the six months that they need for digestion.

当时，我对丛林中的奇遇想得很多。
I pondered deeply, then, over the adventures of the jungle.
于是，我也用彩色铅笔画出了我的第一副图画。
And after some work with a colored pencil I succeeded in making my first drawing.
我的第一号作品。
My Drawing Number One.



它是这样的：我把我的这副杰作拿给大人看，我问他们我的画是不是叫他们害怕。
It looked like this:I showed my masterpiece to the grown-ups, and asked them whether the drawing frightened them.

他们回答我说：“一顶帽子有什么可怕的？”
But they answered: “Frighten? Why should any one be frightened by a hat?”
我画的不是帽子，
My drawing was not a picture of a hat.

是一条巨蟒在消化着一头大象。
It was a picture of a boa constrictor digesting an elephant.
但由于大人们无法理解它,我做了另一个图:
But since the grown-ups were not able to understand it,I made another drawing:
于是我又把巨蟒肚子里的情况画了出来，以便让大人们能够看懂。
I drew the inside of the boa constrictor, so that the grown-ups could see it clearly.
这些大人总是需要解释。
They always need to have things explained.  
My Drawing Number Two looked like this:
大人们劝我把这些画着开着肚皮的，或者闭上肚皮的蟒蛇的图画放在一边，
The grown-ups’ response, this time, was to advise me to lay aside my drawings of boa constrictors,
还是把兴趣放在地理、历史、算术和语法上。
whether from the inside or the outside, and devote myself instead to geography, history, arithmetic and grammar.

就这样，在六岁的那年，我就放弃了当画家这一美好的职业。
That is why, at the age of six, I gave up what might have been a magnificent career as a painter.

Align with Job Description: Questions should target specific competencies identified in the job description.
Use Action Verbs: Focus on actions taken (e.g., "developed," "implemented," "negotiated").
Focus on Specific Situations: Prompt for concrete examples, avoiding vague inquiries like "Tell me about a time you worked under pressure." Instead, ask, "Describe a situation where a tight deadline required prioritizing tasks effectively."
The STAR Method:

The STAR method provides a framework for candidates to structure their responses to behavioral questions:

Situation: Briefly describe the context and challenges faced.
Task: Explain your specific role and responsibilities in the situation.
Action: Detail the specific actions you took to address the challenge.
Result: Describe the outcome of your actions, quantifying achievements if possible.
Beyond Technical Skills:

Behavioral interviewing goes beyond technical skills, offering insights into:

Problem-Solving Approach: Explore how the candidate tackled challenges, revealing their thought process and analytical abilities.

Communication Style: Pay attention to clarity, conciseness, and ability to articulate ideas effectively.
Work Style: Understand if the candidate thrives in independent or collaborative environments.
Benefits and Best Practices:

Reduced Bias: Focusing on past actions minimizes the influence of unconscious bias based on appearance or background.

Increased Predictability: Understanding past performance in similar situations improves the likelihood of future success.

Deeper Candidate Evaluation: Behavioral questions move beyond a resume, revealing a more holistic picture of the candidate's capabilities.

Best practices:

Develop a set of behavioral questions for each role to ensure consistency.

Pay close attention to the candidate's use of the STAR method and probe for further details.

Evaluate responses across candidates using a consistent scoring rubric.

Behavioral Interview Questions - Best Practices - Episode 71

Young people in South Korea are turning their backs on marriage, according to a government report.

A survey by Statistics Korea of Koreans aged between 19 and 34 found that just 36% have a positive opinion of marriage.

That's down from 56% in 2012.

The report found that many young Koreans feel they do not have enough money for marriage at a time when the cost of living is high.

Others said they don't think that marriage is necessary.

The report also found that only 28% of the women surveyed have a positive opinion of marriage.

This may be because women are choosing to put their jobs first — before marrying and starting a family.

Earlier in the year, Statistics Korea said that the number of marriages in the country in 2022 was the lowest ever recorded.

There were 192,000 marriages in 2022. The number of marriages recorded has now decreased in each of the last 11 years.

The government is worried, and has spent years trying to encourage young people to marry and have children, since the country's birth rate is also falling.

But more Koreans are happy to stay single. There is even a word for people who choose not to marry: bihon.

And instead of encouraging Koreans to marry, some people are asking the government to do more for single people who have chosen to live on their own.
