🎧 Podcast: Polskie narzekanie – sport narodowy czy terapia? (Poziom B2/C1)

Dlaczego Polacy na pytanie „Co słychać?” rzadko odpowiadają „Great!”? Czy narzekanie to nasza narodowa wada, czy może sekretny sposób na budowanie głębokich relacji? W tym odcinku wchodzimy głębiej w polską mentalność. Porozmawiamy o „starej biedzie”, o tym, dlaczego sukces bywa podejrzany i czy młode pokolenia faktycznie zmienią nasz kulturowy kod.

Why do Poles rarely answer "Great!" to the question "How are things?"? Is complaining our national flaw or a secret way to build deep relationships? In this episode, we dive deeper into the Polish mentality. We’ll discuss the concept of "stara bieda," why success can be seen as suspicious, and whether the younger generation will actually change our cultural code.

Hi everyone!! It’s Timpika and you’re listening to Thai T la nid podcast EP 5!! As you know it’s the hottest time of the year in Thailand right now. It’s burning hot and many times, I have to say “ร้อนมากกกกกก แบบก.ไก่ล้านตัว” (slang).

Alright, some of you might know “ร้อนมาก”  already ร้อน means hot and มาก means very so ร้อนมาก means very hot.

And when you want to emphasize an adjective or adverb even more you can pronounce the word “มาก” longer (The longer the more emphasis). For example ร้อนมากกกกกกกก. Just like that.

But that’s not enough. When it’s a very very great degree. We can add the expression “ก.ไก่ล้านตัว” "gor-gài láan dtuua" or with a million of “ก”.

ก.ไก่ is the letter “ก” which is the final consonant of the word “มาก”
ล้าน = million 
ตัว = the classifier for letters, consonants, vowels, numbers, characters 

So when we say ร้อนมากกกกกก แบบ ก.ไก่ล้านตัว, it means the weather is sooooooo hottttttt! With a million of “t”

More examples on using ก.ไก่ล้านตัว
1. สงกรานต์ที่เมืองไทยสนุกมากกกกกกกก แบบก.ไก่ ล้านตัว
2.  ส้มตำร้านนี้อร่อยมากกกกกก แบบก.ไก่ล้านตัว
