Hello Ryan! Why are you so wet today?
Hello Mia! Today it rained very heavily. I didn't carry an umbrella with me.
Oho! Did you walk in the rain? Your new hairstyle looks funny!
Haha! Yes, as soon as I went outside, I didn't even think about an umbrella.
Looking outside right now, the dark clouds are very dark!
Yes, the wind is blowing very hard too. It looks like it will rain all day.
So today we are going to teach Thai phrases for rainy days!
Yes, there are six phrases that are used very often in daily life.
Our Hero Phrase today is 'ฉัน ลืม ร่ม ของ ฉัน' (I forgot my umbrella).
And the other five phrases are: raining heavily, completely soaked, stuck in rain, borrow an umbrella please, and keep an umbrella with you.
And in the next section, Mia has an interesting story about convenience stores in Thailand during rain!
Sounds very interesting! Let's go listen to the fun story right away!
Ryan, please tell us yesterday's story. What happened when you went out to buy iced tea?
Yesterday at 2 PM the sky was still very clear. So I walked out to buy iced tea.
And what happened next? The sky changed color very fast, right?
Yes! After just ten minutes, dark clouds came and it rained heavily immediately!
Did you manage to run and shelter from the rain in time, Ryan?
Not in time! I ran under a shop roof, but I was already completely soaked!
Were your clothes and shoes completely soaked with rainwater?
Yes, rainwater dripped from my hair down to my shirt.
Haha! How did you feel at that moment?
At that moment I was very shocked and said to myself: I forgot my umbrella!
I feel so sorry for you! Did you have to stand waiting there for a long time?
I had to stand stuck in the rain right there for about thirty minutes!
What were the other people standing together doing while stuck in the rain?
Everyone stood chatting together and watching the water on the street. Quite fun actually!
Things like this happen very often in Bangkok during the rainy season!
Yes! Mia, you have a story about convenience stores, right?
Yes! Do you know what Thai people do when they say 'I forgot my umbrella'?
Run into a convenience store, right?
Correct! Convenience stores in Thailand immediately place cheap umbrellas right at the front counter!
Ah! Clear umbrellas that aren't expensive, right?
Yes! The price is just over one hundred baht. Very easy and convenient to buy!
Besides buying umbrellas, what else do Thai people do when it rains?
Thai people love standing sheltering from rain together in front of shops and chatting happily!
Some people also buy hot drinks to sit drinking while waiting for the rain to stop.
Yes! Hot tea or hot soy milk helps warm you up a lot!
Sounds like a very cute and warm culture!
Yes! Even though it rains, Thai people can always smile!
Smiling and helping each other makes rainy days not boring at all!
Exactly! This is the charm of Thailand on a rainy day!
Now we come to the section explaining today's six important phrases!
Let's start with our Hero Phrase first!
The Hero Phrase is 'ฉัน ลืม ร่ม ของ ฉัน'. This phrase means 'I forgot my umbrella'.
Yes! Whenever you forget an umbrella, you can say this phrase!
For example: walking out of the condo and realizing 'ฉัน ลืม ร่ม ของ ฉัน'.
The second phrase is 'ฝน ตก หนัก'. This means 'it is raining heavily'.
When looking outside and seeing rain falling hard, say 'ฝน ตก หนัก'.
The third phrase is 'ตัว เปียก หมด'. This means 'completely soaked'.
If your clothes are wet from rainwater all over, you can say 'ตัว เปียก หมด'.
The fourth phrase is 'ติด ฝน'. This means 'trapped by rain'.
When you can't go anywhere because of heavy rain, tell your friend 'ติด ฝน'.
The fifth phrase is 'ยืม ร่ม หน่อย'. This means 'can I borrow an umbrella please'.
If you want to ask to use an umbrella with a friend, say 'ยืม ร่ม หน่อย'.
And the sixth phrase is 'พก ร่ม ไว้'. This means 'keep an umbrella with you'.
Carrying an umbrella in your bag is keeping an umbrella with you.
Very good, Ryan! Now, are our listeners Team Nat or Team Ploy?
Please explain the difference between the two teams, Mia.
Team Ploy keeps an umbrella in her bag every day whether it rains or not!
But Team Nat doesn't like carrying an umbrella! Whenever it rains, I say 'I forgot my umbrella' every time!
Haha! Team Nat is so pitiful!
Mia, I read that many people in Bangkok carry umbrellas, right?
Yes! Want to guess what percentage of Bangkok people carry umbrellas in rainy season?
Let me guess fifty percent!
No! I heard that it's as high as seventy percent!
Wow, seventy percent! That means most people are Team Ploy!
Yes! Keeping an umbrella in your bag is best. No need to fear heavy rain at all!
I think I need to switch to Team Ploy now, Mia!
