During a recent class I was teaching I found my students confused between \u0e01\u0e32\u0e23 gaan1 and \u0e2d\u0e22\u0e39\u0e48 yuu2. The direct translation for both to English is the equivalent to adding an \u2013ing at the end of a word. However, the meaning of each is different in Thai.<\/p>\n

Yuu2 \u0e2d\u0e22\u0e39\u0e48<\/strong> is used to describe an act that is currently on-going. For example: I am eating right now, I am writing an article at this moment, and I am thinking. To say something is happening, you take a verb and apend \u0e2d\u0e22\u0e39\u0e48 at the end. Optionally, you can also add a gum1lang1 \u0e01\u0e33\u0e25\u0e31\u0e07 before the verb to stress that \u2013ing a bit more.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Gaan1 \u0e01\u0e32\u0e23<\/strong> is used to describe the act of doing something. For example: The sport of competition eating, the subject of writing, and thinking is what engineers do best. To refer to an act of something, just add \u0e01\u0e32\u0e23 in front of that verb. If you\u2019d like to learn more about gaan1 and get more examples, see my old post about gaan1 and kwaam1<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
