Review Summary
- กำลัง + Verb
- Adjective + จัง
- Sentence + [Particle]
- Clause + ก็เถอะ
Errores comunes
กำลัง cannot be used with past time markers. It is strictly for present continuous.
Overloading particles at the end creates confusion. Use them one at a time for clarity.
ก็เถอะ usually follows a concession clause. It needs the 'even though' context.
