Way back in the day, on my first visit to Thailand, I picked up a cassette tape 😂 by Asanee Wasan…the one with the Krungthepmahanakhon song (final track). I brought it home with me and listened to it quite often, singing along even though I had little idea what I was singing along with. Soon I became able to say the entire Thai name of Bangkok without even realizing it was the entire Thai name of Bangkok!
in 89 when Asanee Wasan released the song Krungthep maha nakorn me, and a couple of other farangs mates that spoke some thai used to sing that song in pubs & bars to the shocked thais that often themselfs didnt know the full name of Krungthep, great fun
How is it possible? The original, entire name of Los Angeles has some references to the Catholic religion, for instance the "Porciuncula"... It's "El pueble de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles de Porciuncula", if my memory serves me well.
Hi, there is another theory for the name of Bangkok. The word "Bang" (บาง) represents a place where is nearby river such as Bang Rak (บางรัก), Bang Na (บางนา), ฺBang Khun Phrom (บางขุนพรหม). And the word "Kok" (กอก) comes from the word Ma Kok (มะกอก). So, "Bangkok" might come from a place nearby river (แม่น้ำเจ้าพระยา) where is a lot of olive trees.
I found this channel only a few days ago after just casually searching for "how hard is Thai really" kind of vids (I speak 8 languages, but the only technically Asian one of them is Modern Hebrew). And now I'm like "damn. Who the heck is this guy and why does he only have 17k subs?"
Im impressed. But what you may not know, Actually many Thais may not even knows that the word Krungthep was always the name of the kingdom since Ayutthaya. The full name of Ayutthaya back then was Krungthep tavarawadee sri ayutthaya.
there is a song that my dad taught me to learn the name of Bangkok when I was a kid...he said that it's quite normal to teach children the name with that song
I am Thai and I am very impressed with you and your Thai accent, Especially at the end of the clip that you say the full name of Bangkok. It's not easy for foreigners. 😂😂😂
I was a bit rusty - hadn't said the full name for years ... and had the old song echoing in my head. It's like doing the Rubik's cube - if you stop half way through a move, you need to reset and start again!
Wow, I think you have done your research and practice so well, amazing. I'd like to share a trick for anyone who's interested in practucing Thai pronunciation. To pronounce a long Thai vocabulary (which mostly are borrowed from Sankrit or Bhali), learner should say those words without any stress or else you may try saying word with a bored expressing and keep all syllable in low tone then you will sound so Thai.
You're Thai expert!!! Bangkok is บางกอก. In the past, the name was บางกอก. For the full name of กรุงเทพฯ, there was a song I studied in school. 🤣 That was the way I remembered it. 😁 Thank you for the video. 😊
💛💙🤎 You are very talented can decompose the lexicon of each word. Some Thai people don't even know it yet. And the Thai pronunciation is very clear. 🧡💛💚
As a Thai, it’s nothing when non-Thai speakers pronounce Thai names in their accents. We can also understand ,like places or specific words. Just like when we , Thais, can’t pronounce some words perfectly in others languages. You can understand even if we pronounce it wrong ,and sometime, awkward. Besides, you speak Thai like natives. Salute!!!
Accually in southern thai dialect people still call Krungthep (กรุงเทพ) as Bangkok (บางกอก) I don't know if this name apply to all southern thai dialect though. Also, back when I was a child I remember that some people also use "Krungthep" in sarcastic way when they talk to those who move to Bangkok and rarely come back to home town.
That is very interesting - great idea to help people to stop butchering place names. Another thing was you mentioned about the influence from southern China- I have a Chinese friend from GuangXi and from what I hear, is that his Thai is near-native level. Apparently, there are a number of similarities between the two languages.
Yes - In Guangxi there are SO MANY languages there, and many TAI / Zhuang languages, so the jump to standard Thai isn't that hard. In mindkraft we actually practice morphing thai into different dialects and back. There are some common shifts you can do - and then it's just a matter of adjusting some vocab and a couple of structures.
One more name that the foreigners always make mistakes is "Koh Phangan". They pronounce "Koh Phan Gan" เกาะพันกัน. It means the island that twists together. This must be "Koh Pha Ngan" เกาะพะงัน Ng=ง but foreigners always separate n and g.
Bangkok is an old name of Krung Thep. For thais, We also call our city “Bangkok” but its sound old fashion or an hilarious way, like in the 80s film or in the period soap opera 😂
Thanks for this video. My hair stands on end when I hear mispronunciations of Pattaya and Phuket. (Paht tay yah is similar to a fried potato. Patty Ya is a bar girl.) As for airport names, I prefer Don Tuam (flood) for Don Muang and Sawampi for Suvarnabhumi because it isn't far behind. Might I suggest a follow-up video on some province names that are likely to be mispronounced? (Phetchaburi, Ratchaburi and Loei come to mind.) I heard a video where a guy managed to butcher Hua Hin. It was more like Hwa Hinn.
Any way you’d be willing to take us on a linguistic, cultural and historical, syllable by syllable deep dive on the full name of กรุงเทพฯ? One specific example: the Sanskrit of nine jewels is navaratnani right? Is that hiding under a stack of ์ somewhere? Is Mahainthara ‘Great Indra?’ If so, how come that comes several clauses earlier in the Thai than in all the English translations I can find? (I’m guessing the answer has the word ‘declension’ in it-my loins are duly girded…) ขอบคุณครับมากๆ!
About ten years ago, I found the bad luck foreigner. He got mad on the van and ask the driver repeatedly "Where's the airport !?" Unfortunately, he pronounced "Dnong mong"(He means "Don Mueang"). the officer at Suvarnaphumi airport's bus terminal got misunderstanding and provided him the ticket of Bangkok - Nong Mon (Bang saen, Chonburi) instead. (There's opposite way)
The way ive remembered the whole name is due to a song, whose lyrics is just the whole name, in a play production I watched as a kid of the siamese twins.
Just found your channel. My first thought was like is this man Thai. His Thai is very clear like a native speaker. Ehhhh but his English is incredibly perfect. Then you also share some knowledge of chinese. So I was like... okay I think I found another polyglot.
I am based in Hatyai but I am on a short trip back to the UK while all these crazy lockdowns are going on. I would love to see some clips about southern Thai and hear you speak it! There are very few videos covering the topic
5:38 dtao 骰，this word came from Teochew (潮州)， as many Chinese Thai ancestor came from Teochew. Some words originally from Teochew, when adopted by Thai, ..they dont really follow original Teochew tone
Mường is the name of one Vietnamese ethnicity in the North West Highlands. Mường is also the closest brother of Kinh people (which is known as Vietnamese), which was also from Mon-Khmer. Mường in their language means "the place" or "the realm". Like heaven, earth or hell, all are Mường.
Well, Thai words and transliterations it's great topic. Btw picture 5 is เกาะนางยวน and not เกาะเต่า many pictures and guides mixing them up . เกาะนางยวน is (one or three, depending on the tide) tiny island(s) located only 5 minutes from เกาะเต่า.
Bangkok is the old name,and old Thai people from up country also called the capital city as Bangkok,that was around 50 years ago.But now people called Krugthep,it's an official name.
There's a mistake here in saying that no Thais call Bangkok, Bangkok. In Southern Thai dialect, บางกอก (pronounced: Bang-gawk) is still often used instead of Krungthep. In fact, Southerners even shorten it to just say 'Gawk' (กอก)
It is pronounced as -Su (Short pronumciation) -Wun (short pronunciation) like the word 'one' in English -Na (short pronunciation) -Poom (long pronunciation), like the word Room, Boom in English
Bangkok is originally a Cambodian/Khmer word. That territory used to be part of The Khmer Empire. The Khmer word Bangkok means “a swamp of reeds.” That place used to be full of reed plants that were used to make mats (kathale). Bang = swamp/lake and Kok = reed plants.
I figured I have neglected my channel for too long now - TH-cam has been sending friendly 'hints' that daily posting will catch the wave of the algorithm - so this month I thought I'd give it a go, and see if daily posting actually makes a difference to my ability to get my word out - and channel growth.
The word ดิลก in the full name of Bangkok should be pronounced as ดิ-หลก with the "low tone". The writing form of Thai is mostly consistent but, very few times, it can be misleading.
I caught that too, but his Thai pronunciation is amazing. In this whole video, it’s was probably the only word with the wrong tones. I am trying to learn other languages, and If I can be half as good as him in Thai and Chinese, I would be overjoyed.
I'd say it's still consistent. The tone of ลก shifts to the same low tone as 'ด' it's the rule of thai dipthongs (such as สนาม,ขนม etc.) which native Thai speakers didn't notice this as we learned it naturally. The only Thai orthography that I find inconsistent is the spelling of English loanwords. For example 'computer' In Thai we says คอม-พิ้ว-เต้อ but the written form of it is 'คอมพิวเตอร์' So when it comes to English/Western loan words, Thais just omit the tone markers but still stress tones in each syllable.
