常见错误
Using 'กิน' in a formal setting is too blunt. Always use 'รับประทาน' or 'ทาน' in social register.
Royal honorifics often already carry high formality; adding 'ครับ' can sometimes be redundant or mismatched.
Adding 'หรือ' makes the question particle 'คะ' softer and more feminine in formal contexts.
