That's why my friend once told me that his niece's name is Ew which is an abbreviation for Elsa, like the Elsa from Frozen. And I've been thinking how Eu, Ew can be a short form of Elsa. Now I know :)
Great video about a rare exception to be aware of. I have also noticed that Thai people, when thay speak English, say "míow" (มิ้ว) instead of "milk". Are there also any loan words that end with ิล and are pronounced like ิว ?
I usually hear it pronounced as high tone มิลค์ and ask for ซอยมิลค์ in starbucks usually without any misunderstandings. มิว like คิว(queue) sounds different to my ear than มิลค์ as I hear no 'yu' sound in มิลค์.
@@wheric Oh, then it is a loan word too and not only when they speak English. I hear it as the same diphthong, but you are right that มิลค์ is high tone. I've updated my comment above to indicate this.
thanks a lot. Right now I know why my Thai friends pronounce my name Michael with ว at the end 😀
Great! Here in Brazil we also pronounce end's "l" like "ว" ("u" for us).
Perfectly explained!
thank you so much for all of this tutorials! i really appreciate it
Very well explained kruu
I enjoy all your read and write tutorial very much! So interesting how ล become ว sound in such instance. 😅
Yes very interesting
This is because you end the word with a glottal stop. Same in some accents in English.
thank you
Your vd are so precious for me Thank you kru ❤

Like Apple as a name becomes shortened to Ple when romanised and pronounced something like ปึน. Watch Let's Eat on Netflix!
Why basebon not basebaw? This is also written with law ling ending

Because in Thai language have no L sound. So we use ล to write like in English and speak with ว for the neariest sound in English
