I'm Thai. I work for the private company. I love to study English in my free time. What about you? Do you want to learn Thai? If you say so, you will able to read and learn Thai with me right here, “Learn Thai by Sentences”.

Today, I'm going to teach you how to say in Thai some sentences such as:

"Forgive Me"

How do Thai people say when they want anyone to forgive them?

Right, today I am going to teach you the sentence begging for forgiveness.

Here we go.

If you are male, you say:

ยกโทษ ให้ ผม นะ
yók tôht hâi pŏm na
Do forgive me please.

On the other hand, if you are female, you say this below sentence instead:

ยกโทษ ให้ ฉัน นะ
yók tôht hâi chăn na
Do forgive me please.

However, you may have heard the sentence almost similar to the previous one. It is:

ยกโทษ ให้ กู นะ
yók tôht hâi goo na
Do forgive me please.

ฉัน [chan] is a pronoun for woman.

ผม [pŏm] is for man to use.

กู[goo] is a pronoun of Thai, is used by the both gender, woman and man.

Attention! 

กู[goo] was a common word to use as pronoun of the first-person(a speaker) hundred years ago. Today it, กู[goo] = I; me, is sometimes used by Thais when talking with close friends only. 

However, in almost any other context, particularly a vigorous quarrel, it is offensive and only used as an insult to the listener. 

The word for the second-person, which is severed as same as level, is มึง [meung], - a similarly offensive word for 'you'.

As a foreigner, you had better only know what they,-never use them.

Hope from now on, you will know the way to say if you know nothing about anything, you should to say as I have posted in this article today.

Is it cleared enough for you?

Next lesson, find how to give a response to the word we just have learned today.

แล้วพบกันใหม่ครับ
Bye,
