सामान्य प्रश्न (6)

Almost any action verb! But avoid using it with stative verbs (feelings/adjectives) like 'happy' or 'hot'.
'Kaan' is for actions (doing), while 'Khwaam' is for states and feelings (being).
No, only with mental or stative verbs.
It can be both formal and informal.
Yes! For some words like คิด (think), การคิด is the process of thinking, while ความคิด is the idea itself.
Yes, Thais often say ชอบเที่ยว instead of ชอบการท่องเที่ยว. The prefix makes it sound more formal or complete.
