Lesson Transcript

Hi everyone! I’m Alisha.
Welcome to Conversational Phrases!
We’ve found that the best way to learn a language is to speak it from day one! And the best way to start speaking is to learn phrases that you’ll use in real conversations.
In this lesson, you’ll learn conversational phrases to use when talking with friends. After watching this video, you’ll be able to have a casual conversation with a friend, and to say something is “super.”
Now, let’s take a look at some conversational phrases!
Listen to the dialogue.
เฮ้ ดูรถคันนั้น! (hêe duu rót khan nán!)
ว้าว เท่สุด ๆ! (wáao thêe sùt sùt!)
Once more with the English translation.
เฮ้ ดูรถคันนั้น! (hêe duu rót khan nán!)
“Hey, look at that car!”
ว้าว เท่สุด ๆ! (wáao thêe sùt sùt!)
“Wow, that's super cool!”
First of all you'll need to learn how to say “Hey, look at that car!”
That's:
เฮ้ ดูรถคันนั้น! (hêe duu rót khan nán!)
Listen to it again:
เฮ้ ดูรถคันนั้น!, เฮ้ ดูรถคันนั้น! (hêe duu rót khan nán!, hêe duu rót khan nán!)
“Hey, look at that car!”
Now, how do you respond to this?
First of all, you’ll need to learn how to say “wow” . That’s
ว้าว, ว้าว (wáao, wáao)
Then, you’ll need to learn how to say “That’s super [adjective].”
The pattern is:
[adjective]สุด ๆ ([adjective] sùt sùt)
This Thai sentence literally translates as "[adjective] super.” But it means “That's super [adjective].”
For example:
“Wow, that's super cool!”
ว้าว เท่สุด ๆ!, ว้าว เท่สุด ๆ! (wáao thêe sùt sùt!, wáao thêe sùt sùt!)
