Kat teaches Thai Episode 6 - (see)

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.
