Is It Clear?
Can you see and hear clearly? In this Easy Thai lesson, you’ll learn how to describe what you can and can’t see or hear in Thai. Follow Addy, who is short-sighted, and Noi, who is long-sighted, as they put on and take off their glasses. Then find out what happens when driving through heavy rain, chatting from far away, and taking a phone call in a storm. Along the way, you’ll also learn how to ask someone to repeat themselves.
