  • Age/Gender term + Noun
  • Noun + ເປັນ + Role

اشتباهات رایج

In Lao, you must include the possessive marker 'ຂອງ' (of) to clearly indicate ownership or relationship.

Wrong: ພໍ່ຂ້ອຍ (Father my)
صحیح: ພໍ່ຂອງຂ້ອຍ (Father of me)

Do not combine kinship terms incorrectly. Each noun stands alone to define the specific relationship.

Wrong: ອ້າຍແມ່ (Older brother mother)
صحیح: ອ້າຍ (Older brother)

When identifying a family member, use 'ແມ່ນ' (is) for identification rather than 'ເປັນ' (to be a role).

Wrong: ລາວເປັນອ້າຍ (He is older brother)
صحیح: ລາວແມ່ນອ້າຍຂອງຂ້ອຍ (He is my older brother)
