Grammar Rule in 30 Seconds

The verb 'kin' (กิน) is the most common way to say 'eat' in Thai and is used for almost all food and drinks.

  • Use 'kin' for eating food: 'chan kin khao' (I eat rice).
  • Use 'kin' for drinking liquids: 'kin nam' (drink water).
  • Add 'mai' before 'kin' to say 'don't eat': 'mai kin' (don't eat).
Subject + กิน (kin) + Object

مرور کلی

بررسی اجمالی
بیشتر زبان‌آموزان تایلندی با کلمه kin (กิน) مشکل دارند. این رایج‌ترین راه برای گفتن «خوردن» است. آن را به عنوان چاقوی سوئیسی خود برای صرف غذا در نظر بگیرید.
چه در حال خوردن غذای خیابانی باشید و چه در یک شام مجلل نشسته باشید، kin بهترین دوست شماست. ساده، کوتاه است و همه از کودکان نوپا تا مدیران عامل از آن استفاده می‌کنند. شما در اینجا جداول صرف پیچیده پیدا نخواهید کرد زیرا افعال تایلندی بر اساس اینکه چه کسی صحبت می‌کند تغییر نمی‌کنند.
جدی می‌گویم، هیچ درام «من می‌خورم، تو می‌خوری، او می‌خورد» وجود ندارد. فقط یک کلمه، یک شکل، و شما آماده‌اید.
