اشتباهات رایج

In Thai, the noun must come before the adjective. You are putting it in English order.

Wrong: ใหญ่รถ (Big car)
صحیح: รถใหญ่ (Car big)

Do not use 'pen' (to be) with adjectives. The adjective itself acts as the verb.

Wrong: เขาเป็นสวย (He is beautiful)
صحیح: เขาสวย (He beautiful)

Colors must be preceded by 'see' (color) when modifying a noun.

Wrong: แดงหนังสือ (Red book)
صحیح: หนังสือสีแดง (Book color red)

سوالات رایج (6)

Thai is a topic-comment language. You just state the topic, then the comment about it.
Just add mak right after the adjective. Example: suay mak (very beautiful).
No. 'pen' is for nouns (e.g., 'I am a teacher'). Use adjectives directly for states.
Just put 'mâi' before the adjective. 'mâi hǐw' means 'not hungry'.
Yes, it is the most common way to say 'very'.
Not at all, it is very polite.
