Answer

but, also noted in your mind that (gamlang) has another meaning that is  (power)

but, this form used as Noun.

S + v + N (or object)

1)ฉันมีกำลัง(ที่จะสู้ต่อไป) chan mee gamlang (tee ja soo tho pai) ----- i have streghth or power to continue fighting or (to continue carry on)

2)ฉันมีกำลัง(พอที่จะทำมัน)  chan mee gamlang (tee ja tam man ) ----- i have enought power or streght to do this job.

3)กำลังใจ   gamlang-jai (this one is means) encounrage, conforting..

ผมต้องการกำลังใจจากเธอ chan thong gaan gamlang-jai jak ter ( i need your encourage)
