    365 days to learn 365 Thai phrases

    It is my goal to learn a new Thai phrase every day. I have been doing so for some time. The following posts will be basic phrases that I have learned already. I hope it helps you as well. Get your wife / gf / friend to read the Thai so you can get the correct pronunciation and the spend all day practicing that phrase.

    We all know or should know the basics like Sawasdee, khob kuhn, sabai dee mai, pai nai and so forth, so I will skip those.

    So let's get started!!

    Have you ever gotten in a taxi and told them your destination (pai......) and the taxi driver look at you with empty eyes and yet still drive away. Then they are calling their friend to ask for directions or going the wrong way on your baht? You can use this phrase to ask the taxi driver if he knows your destination.


    Do you know where (insert destination) is?

    Khun rue jak (insert destination) mai? คุณรู้จัก....มั้ย
