Listen to Kat teaches Thai Episode 6
On the last episode I taught you how to say, "Koon-cheu-a-rai", which means, "What is your name?" To reply to the question, male speaker would say: Pome-cheu....(name). Female speaker would say: Chun-cheu.....(name). I also taught you how to swap out different pronouns in the question and the response. I hope you have been practicing them all!
On this episode, I teach you how to say See (with a higher tone), which means color. You are learning 14 different color words. When you want to say a color name, you always say the word SEE in front of the color name.
See Chome Poo (Chome rhymes with home, poo rhymes with boo) = pink color
See Dang (Dang rhymes with bang) = red color
See Dum (Dum rhymes with gum) = black color
See Fah (Fah uses the a sound in car) = light blue color
See Keow (Keow rhymes with meow) = green color
See Kow (Kow pronounces like Carl but without L sound) = white color
See Leurng (Leurng uses the er sound in learn, ng sound in sing) = yellow color
See Muong (Say “moo” and “wong” together really fast) = purple color
See Ngern (Ngern uses the ng sound in sing, the word rhymes with learn) = silver color
See Num Tharn (Num like number, th sound in thumb, a sound in car) = brown color
See Num Ngern (Num like number, ng sound in sing, the word rhymes with learn) = dark blue color
See Some (Some rhymes with home) = orange color
See Tao = gray color
See Tong = gold color
We will learn how to incorporate these color words into sentences on another episode.
