Thanks very useful
You are welcome🙏
Thanks for the lesson. When ordering food, how can I tell the waiter/waitress that I want regular or large size? Thanks again 😃🙏
Thank you for your comment!
When ordering food in Thai, you can specify the portion size as follows:
For a regular size, you can say ธรรมดา (tham-ma-da), which means "normal" or "regular".
For a large size, you can say พิเศษ (phée-sàyt), which means "special" or "large".
For example, if you're ordering Pad Thai, you can say:
Regular size: ผัดไทย ธรรมดา (Phat Thai tham-ma-da)
Large size: ผัดไทย พิเศษ (Phat Thai phée-sàyt)
I hope this helps! Enjoy your meal! 😊
Wow, thanks so much for your clear explanation 😃🙏
