		 点外卖

我是一名医生，工作很忙。我不会做饭，一般也不在家里吃，下班以后经常去医院旁边的饭馆吃饭。后来，同事们告诉我，可以用手机点外卖，又方便又便宜。我试了一个星期，感觉太好了。我现在每顿都可以吃不同的东西，昨天吃饺子，今天吃面条，明天吃三明治，太幸福了！

《点外卖 》讲解

呼风唤雨镇水灾
       龙是传说中的神异动物，早在几千年前，中国大地上就出现了“龙”的形象——鹿角、鱼鳞、鹰爪、虎掌......龙具有多种动物的特征。
       在神话传说中，龙能呼风唤雨，各个海域都有龙王, 统领一方水族。以前很多地方都建有龙王庙, 遇到大旱天气，民间还会举行舞龙祈雨活动。所以,很多桥上都会雕龙，寄托了人们希望桥梁拱稳固，水灾消失的美好愿望。
真龙天子我最大
       在人们的想象中，龙善于变化，拥有强大的力量，几乎不可战胜。随着龙的不断神化，人们把龙和与皇权联系了起来。帝王的身体称为“龙体”，帝王登基称为“龙袍加身”，帝王自命“真龙天子”。在故宫里，龙的形象无处不在，光太和殿里就有 1 万多条龙，有“万龙朝圣”之意。
节日氛围组担当
      每逢新春佳节或元宵节，我国不少地方会举行舞龙活动。农历二月二龙抬头，有的地方还会举行祭龙活动。南方一些地区在端午节还喜欢赛龙舟，热闹非凡。
      我们中国人自称龙的传人，还将奋斗不止、自强不息的民族精神称为龙马精神呢！
      水不在深，有龙则灵。——刘禹锡《陋室铭》    大意：水不在于深，有了龙就会有灵气。

The word “vacation” in Thai is พักร้อน (pák-rón)
พัก (pák) = to rest
ร้อน (rón) = ฤดูร้อน (réu-doo-rón) = summer
พักร้อน (pák-rón) = to go on vacation or to take a vacation/annual leave 

You can ask someone:
คุณจะไปพักร้อนที่ไหน (kun jà bpai pák-rón têe-nai) = Where are you going on vacation?
จะ (jà) = will
ไป (bpai) = to go
พักร้อน (pák-rón) = vacation/ annual leave 
ที่ไหน (têe-nai) = where

Now, let’s learn more phrases 

1. ไปเที่ยว (bpai-tîiao) = to go visit somewhere or go on vacation.
ไป (bpai) = to go
เที่ยว (tîiao) = to travel/ visit somewhere 

ผมจะไปเที่ยวเชียงใหม่ (pǒm jà bpai tîiao chiiang-mài) = I’m going to visit Chiang Mai.

ฉันอยากไปเที่ยวทะเลแล้วก็ดำน้ำ (chan yàak bpai-tîiao tá-lay láew-gôr dam-náam) = I want to go to the sea and snorkel.
อยาก (yàak) = to want to do sth
ทะเล (tá-lay) = sea
แล้วก็ (láew-gôr) = and, and then
ดำน้ำ (dam-náam) = to snorkel/ dive 

2. เที่ยวให้สนุกนะ (tîiao hâi sà-nùk ná) = Have fun. Have a great trip.
สนุก (sà-nùk) = fun

3. เดินทางปลอดภัย (dern-taang bplòt-pai) = Have a safe trip.
เดินทาง (dern-taang) = to travel
ปลอดภัย (bplòt-pai) = safe

4. กลับบ้าน (glàp-bâan) = to go back home
กลับ (glàp) = to go back
บ้าน (bâan) = home

This can also mean to go back to hometown to visit their family as well.

All right. We have seven phrases today. Let’s repeat again.

1. พักร้อน (pák-rón) = to go on vacation or to take a vacation/annual leave 

2. คุณจะไปพักร้อนที่ไหน (kun jà bpai pák-rón têe-nai) = Where are you going on vacation?

3. ผมจะไปเที่ยวเชียงใหม่ (pǒm jà bpai tîiao chiiang-mài) = I’m going to visit Chiang Mai.

4. ฉันอยากไปเที่ยวทะเล แล้วก็ดำน้ำ (chan yàak bpai-tîiao tá-lay láew-gôr dam-náam) = I want to go to the sea and snorkel.

5. เที่ยวให้สนุกนะ (tîiao hâi sà-nùk ná) = Have fun. Have a great trip.

6. เดินทางปลอดภัย (dern-taang bplòt-pai) = Have a safe trip.

7. กลับบ้าน (glàp-bâan) = to go back home
