よくある間違い

Confusing positive and negative adjectives is common for beginners.

Wrong: ຂ້ອຍດີໃຈຫຼາຍ (I am very happy) used for 'I am sad'.
正解: ຂ້ອຍເສຍໃຈຫຼາຍ (I am very sad).

Lao speakers often soften negative expressions with 'a little'.

Wrong: ຂ້ອຍໂມໂຫ (I am angry) without context.
正解: ຂ້ອຍໂມໂຫໜ້ອຍໜຶ່ງ (I am a little angry).

Ensure 'yaan' is followed by the object of fear, not an action.

Wrong: ຂ້ອຍຢ້ານ (I am afraid) followed by a verb instead of an object.
正解: ຂ້ອຍຢ້ານງູ (I am afraid of snakes).
