I knew (m) in Thai 🇹🇭

ผมรู้แล้ว info.

Tips to Remember:

1. Sound Association: Think of "ผม" (phǒm) which means "I" or "me" specifically for males. Imagine "rooster" crowing because the word "รู้" (rûu) sounds a bit like "roo" from "rooster."

2. Visual Memory: Picture a thermometer for "รู้" or a Roomba vacuum to remember the tone and sound.

Explanations:

– ผม (phǒm): Male first-person pronoun meaning "I" or "me."
– รู้ (rûu): Means "know." The tone of the word is falling.
– แล้ว (lɛ́ɛo): This word indicates that the action is completed, similar to the English word "already."

Other Words That Mean the Same Thing:

– ทราบแล้ว (sâap láew): "I have been informed" or "I know already" in a more formal context.
– เข้าใจแล้ว (khâo jai láew): Although it means "understand," it can also imply knowledge of a fact.

Conjugations:

Thai verbs do not conjugate according to tense like in English. Instead, they use auxiliary words and context.

– Past Tense: Use "แล้ว" (lɛ́ɛo) to indicate the past: ผมรู้แล้ว (phǒm rúu lɛ́ɛo) – "I knew/I know already."
– Present Tense: Context defines the present. For current knowledge, just use the verb: ผมรู้ (phǒm rúu) – "I know."
– Future Tense: Add "จะ" (jà) before the verb for the future: ผมจะรู้ (phǒm jà rúu) – "I will know."

Examples of Sentences:

1. Past Tense: เมื่อวานผมรู้แล้วว่าเขามา (meûa waan phǒm rúu lɛ́ɛo wâa khǎo maa) – "Yesterday, I knew he was coming."

2. Present Tense: ผมรู้ว่าเธอเป็นหมอ (phǒm rúu wâa thəə bpen mɔ̌ɔ) – "I know that you are a doctor."

3. Future Tense: พรุ่งนี้ผมจะรู้ผลสอบ (phrûng-níi phǒm jà rúu phǒn sòp) – "Tomorrow, I will know the exam results."

4. Formal Context: ผมทราบแล้วว่าคุณยุ่ง (phǒm sâap lɛ́ɛo wâa khun yûng) – "I have been informed that you are busy."

5. Colloquial Use: เธอรู้แล้วรึยังว่าเขาย้ายบ้าน (thəə rúu lɛ́ɛo rú yang wâa khǎo yáai bâan) – "Do you know yet that he has moved house?"
