How you say hel-, lo in Thai
That is, sawas, di
Then you can, add Ka or krab
Like sa, Wasdi, ka
Sawasdi, krab for men,
sawasdi, ka for women
Now you learnt to, say hel-lo
Congra-, tula-, tions
Thai is not so, difficult
Goodbye, is the, same
Bai kon na, Ka sawasdi
Going, now good-, bye!Words / phrases
