نصائح وحيل (4)

💡

Keep it lean

Don't add 'is', 'am', or 'are'. Thai doesn't use these with action verbs.

🎯

Don't overthink

If you are adding an 's' or 'ed', stop! You are doing too much.

The Golden Rule

If you are describing a job, reach for pen immediately.

Context is King

In Thai, you can drop the 'I' or 'You'. If you are looking for your phone, just say 'mee phone mai?' (Have phone?).
