This podcast is about the misconceptions that many English learners may have about the present continuous tense. Many think that it's only used for actions occurring in the moment but there's more to it than that.

When it comes to memorizing vocabulary, there are several effective techniques you can employ. I am exploring some of them

Background Method:
This technique draws inspiration from the “memory palace” concept. Imagine placing new words or images representing those words in specific rooms within your mental palace. By associating words with spatial locations, you ground them in context. 
Process Words Deeply:
Instead of merely rote memorization, engage with the words deeply. Understand their meanings, etymology, and usage. Create mental connections by linking them to related concepts or personal experiences. 
Associate Words with Mental Images:
Visualize the word’s meaning. Create vivid mental images related to the word. Associating words with images enhances memory retention.
Review Words at Spaced Intervals:
Spaced repetition is a powerful technique. Instead of cramming, review words at regular intervals. Use flashcards or language-learning apps that incorporate spaced repetition algorithms. 
Use Mnemonics:
Create mnemonic devices to remember challenging words. Mnemonics can be acronyms, rhymes, or visual associations. 
Practice with Vocabulary Apps and Games:
Interactive apps and games make learning fun. Explore platforms like Duolingo, Memrise, or Quizlet. Gamified exercises reinforce vocabulary and keep you motivated.
Have a Dedicated Vocabulary Notebook:
Maintain a vocabulary journal. Write down new words, their meanings, and example sentences. Regularly review and revise your notebook. The act of writing reinforces memory.
Immerse Yourself in the Language:
Surround yourself with the target language. Read books, watch movies, listen to podcasts, and follow native speakers on social media. Remember, consistency and creativity are key. Experiment with different techniques to find what works best for you.

Episode 2: Should I Share My Ice Cream?

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!! 😂
