Thank you (khorb koon)

Thank you (khorb koon)

When you are in Thailand don't forget you are representing your country so please always try to be polite. This is a useful word to say "thank you" if someone gives you something.

Always use "krub" (for men) and "ka" (for women) when you want to be polite. Add these words to the end of all the examples below.

"khorb khun" means "Thank you".

"mai ben rai" means "it's ok". For example when someone tries to give you something but you don't want it or someone says thanks to you, you say mai ben rai.

"sia jai" means "sorry" too. But in this case it means different thing. Like if someone died or got hurt, you say "phom/di-chan sia jai" which means "I am sorry".
