Guests Come to My House

What’s the difference between a guest and a customer in Thai? This lesson starts by explaining when to use แขก and when to use ลูกค้า, then follows a friendly home visit from start to finish. When Kaew arrives with a watermelon as a gift, you’ll hear how Thai people greet visitors, invite them inside, offer a drink, and make them feel at home. The story continues with a meal together, a walk around the garden to pick mangoes and coconuts, and a warm goodbye.

Thai Vocabulary:
แขก (khàek) – Guest
ลูกค้า (lûuk-kháa) – Customer
เชิญนั่ง (chəən nâng) – Please have a seat
ทำตัวสบายๆ (tham tua sà-baai sà-baai) – Make yourself at home
ขับรถดีๆ นะ (khàp rót dii-dii ná) – Drive safely
