Today, I saw a heartbreaking video on TikTok of an old man who retired at 72 years old. He worked decades for a company and he was extremely loyal, even if he was earning minimum wage. In this podcast, I will discuss some valuable lesson we can learn from that video.

How to introduce yourself in Thai for beginners

Thai for Everyone with Kru Robert

Learn Thai : How to introduce yourself 

Welcome to learn easy Thai with Kru sumon.  

Today we will learn how to speak Thai from a short conversation during a phone call.  This is a conversation between A and B. 

A : สวัสดีค่ะ  ขอสาย คุณแมรี่ ค่ะ
(sa-wad-dee kha , khor saai khun Mary kha)

B: รอซักครุ่ค่ะ ... ขอโทษนะคะ คุณแมรี่ ไม่อยุ่ค่ะ ให้โทรกลับมั้ยคะ
(ror sak khroo kha.  Khor tote na kha. Khun Mary mai yoo kha. Hai toe glap mai kha?)

A: ไม่เป็นไรค่ะ เดี๋ยวโทรมาใหม่
(mai bpen rai kha.  Diao toe maa mai)

This is a situation where A made a phone call and B picked up the phone. A is asking for Mary.
B. told A to wait and then inform that Mary is not in. 
B asked if A want Mary to call her back.
A said No.

From this conversation , we learn that :

When you make a phone call , and ask for some one. You will say
ขอสาย ...................  (khor saai ……………)
followed by the name of person

or you also can add one more word here 
ขอสาย .................. หน่อย  (khor saai……….. noi)
put Noi at the end to soften the sentence.


when you want someone to wait, you will say
รอซักครู่  (ror sak kroo)
= wait a moment , please

When you want to say “Sorry”, you will say
ขอโทษ  (khor tote)  = sorry

When you want to ask if the listener want the person to call him or her back, you will say
ให้โทรกลับมั้ย (hai toe glab mai?)  = Do you want (the person) to call you back?

If you want to refuse this question, you will say
ไม่เป็นไร  
Actually ไม่เป็นไร means , that’s fine. It doesn’t matter. I am ok.

When you want to say I will call back later, you will say
เดี๋ยวโทรกลับมาใหม่  (diao toe glab maa mai) = I will call back later.

こんばんは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

今回は、～わりに、です。
意味は、これぐらいかな、と思ってたよりは良い時、悪い時、両方使いますね。

・あのラーメン、値段のわりにおいしかったなー。

・かぜひいてるわりに、元気やな。

・連休のわりに今日の札幌は人少ないなぁ。

・期待したわりにはあんまりおもしろくなかったなー。

・はじめてやったわりに、結構うまいやん。


こんな感じですね。
結構使いやすいです。

ぼくもよく使います。
思ってたよりも良い、悪いという感想は日常生活でよくありますね。

みなさんもぜひ練習したり、例文作ったりしてみてください！

ぼくの日本語のレッスンでもこういった例文を作る練習もできます。興味のある方はぜひ、オンラインレッスンでお話しましょう！

お待ちしています！


今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！
ではまた！
