Sentence connectors link two sentences together and make your conversation more natural and dynamic. Many of you probably know the word "and", "but" and "because" in Thai. However, there are many other connectors that are commonly used in our daily conversations. Let's take a quick lesson on how to build complex sentences with the eight connectors in Thai.  แต่ dtàae (but), แต่อย่างไรก็ตาม (dtàe yàang-rai gôr-dtaam) และ láe (and) เพราะ próh (because) ดังนั้น dang-nán, เพราะฉะนั้น próh-chà-nán (formal "so"), เลย loey (casual "so") แม้ว่า máe-wâa (eventhough), แต่ก็ยัง dtàe-gôr-yang......อยู่ yùu (but still) ไม่งั้น mái-ngán (otherwise) ถ้า tâa (if) ทั้งๆที่ táng-táng-tîi (despite) FREE SOURCES TO LEARN THAI  ➡️ 5-day Easy Thai Challenge: https://bit.ly/37RnPXL ➡️ Free Read Thai Guide: https://bit.ly/3wAag7m ➡️ Book a free call with us: https://bit.ly/37PW1D5 Visit my website and see courses on my website www.bananathaischool.com, or write me at [email protected] #learnthai #speakthai #readthai #thailesson #thaicourse #thailanguage #thaischool #thaiculture #studythai #bananathai #krusmuk #farang #thailand #bangkok #bananathai #bananathaischool #learnthailanguage #tipstolearnthai #thailesson #thaifruit #thaiquiz #realthaitalk #realthaiexpression #talkthai

If you still pronounce Thai words and release ending consonant sounds of ก(-k), บ(-p), and ด(-t), Thai people likely do not understand you. I got quite some inquiries regarding the ending consonant sounds, hence I created a podcast to help you understand the concept of ending consonant sounds as well as created an exercise to help you differentiate the unreleased ending sounds. This will be helpful! -ก (k) ending  -บ (p) ending  -ด (t) ending  These ending consonant sounds should not be released. Close your throat and hold your breath.  To improve your pronunciation, it's better to see the mouth shape of a native Thai pronouncing Thai words.
