In this Thai lesson, we learn how to use the adverb of time อีกสักครู่ (èek sàk-khrûu), which means ‘in a little while,’ ‘in a moment,’ ‘shortly,’ or ‘just a moment longer.’ Thai speakers use this expression to indicate that something will happen after a brief wait, making it a common and polite way to talk about the near future.

In this Thai lesson, we learn how to use the verb ส่ง (sòng), which means ‘to send,’ ‘to deliver,’ ‘to hand in,’ ‘to submit,’ or ‘to drop off.’ The core idea of ส่ง (sòng) is moving a person, object, or information from one place or person to another.

In this Thai lesson, we learn how to use the common Thai pattern … แล้ว … อีก (… láew … èek), which expresses repeated actions. By repeating the same verb with แล้ว (láew = already) and อีก (èek = again), Thai speakers emphasise that something happens over and over again.

In this Thai lesson, we learn how to use the idiomatic expression หนักเอาเบาสู้ (hnàk āo bāo sûu), which means ‘to work tirelessly,’ ‘to be willing to take on any task,’ ‘to persevere through hardship,’ or ‘to never shy away from hard work.’ It describes someone who is hard-working, resilient, and dependable, willing to do both difficult and easy tasks without complaining.

In this Thai lesson, we learn how to use the verb phrase เข้ากันไม่ได้ (khâo gān mâi dâi), which means ‘not get along,’ ‘not compatible,’ or ‘don’t fit together’ (more abstract or people-focused). It describes people, things, or ideas that do not match well, usually due to differences in personality, style, or thinking.
