Erreurs courantes

Spaces are not used between words in Thai. It looks strange to native speakers.

Wrong: ฉัน กิน ข้าว
Correct: ฉันกินข้าว

You mixed up the SVO order. The subject must come first.

Wrong: กิน ฉัน ข้าว
Correct: ฉันกินข้าว

It is grammatically correct but lacks politeness. Always use particles for a natural tone.

Wrong: ฉันกินข้าว
Correct: ฉันกินข้าวครับ
