Imagine it’s the middle of winter, there’s a strong storm, and John’s car breaks down in the middle of nowhere. The weather is freezing, and he has no idea what to do.

It’s a great tool when you want to talk about something happening while or during another situation. This structure is especially useful for storytelling because it allows you to clearly explain when an event occurs within a specific timeframe.For example:- ในช่วงที่มีพายุแรง (Nai chûang thîi mii phaa-yú raeng) During the time that there was a strong storm.- ในช่วงที่ฉันเรียนมหาวิทยาลัย (Nai chûang thîi chán rian ma-hǎa-wít-tha-yaa-lai) During the time that I was studying at university.- ในช่วงที่รถติด (Nai chûang thîi rót dtìt) During the time that there was a traffic jam. - ในช่วงที่ฝนตกหนัก (Nai chûang thîi fǒn dtòk nàk) During the time that it was raining heavily. - ในช่วงที่ฉันไม่อยู่บ้าน (Nai chûang thîi chán mâi yùu bâan) During the time that I wasn’t home.This grammar point makes it easy to describe actions or events that occur within a certain timeframe. It’s perfect for giving context to situations, whether you're telling a story or explaining an event.<strong style="font-family: inherit; font-size: calc(18px * var(--body-fontSize, 1)); font-style: var(--body-fontStyle, normal);" data-mce-style="font-family: inherit; font-size: calc(18px * var(--body-fontSize, 1)); font-style: var(--body-fontStyle, normal);">Get the PDF version with all levels and audios 10% OFF contact via e-mail : <a href="mailto:narissworkspace@gmail.com" data-mce-href="mailto:narissworkspace@gmail.com">narissworkspace@gmail.com</a>

Rao loey dtàd-sǐn-jai tham-ngaan thîi bâan Online phró bprà-yàd way-laa dern-thaang. Láe bplòd-phai gwàa phró mâi dtâwng khàb-rót bpai tham-ngaan.

Láe thîi sǎm-khan, mii way-laa sùan-dtua dûay.<h3>New vocabulary</h3><ul><li>ลมแรง (lom raeng) – strong wind</li><li>ฝนตก (fǒn-dtòk) – rain</li><li>ประหยัด (bprà-yàd) – save, economize</li><li>เดินทาง (dern-thaang) – travel</li><li>ปลอดภัย (bplòd-phai) – safe</li><li>ส่วนตัว (sùan-dtua) – private, personal</li></ul>These words will appear in today’s listening exercise, helping you understand the context better and practice using them in sentences.<h3>Grammar focus</h3>In today's grammar section, we'll focus on the use of เพราะ (phró), which means "because." This conjunction helps connect two ideas, showing cause and effect. Let’s look at how it is used in different sentences:เราเลยตัดสินใจทำงานที่บ้านออนไลน์ เพราะประหยัดเวลาเดินทาง (Rao loey dtàd-sǐn-jai tham-ngaan thîi bâan online phró bprà-yàd way-laa dern-thaang) "We therefore decided to work from home online because it saves time travelling." และปลอดภัยกว่า เพราะไม่ต้องขับรถไปทำงาน (Láe bplòd-phai gwàa phró mâi dtâwng khàb-rót bpai tham-ngaan) "And safer because there is no need to drive a car to work." ทำงานออนไลน์ช่วยเพิ่มเวลาพักผ่อนด้วยนะ เพราะไม่ต้องออกไปที่อื่น (Tham-ngaan online chûay phêrm way-laa phák-phòn dûay-ná phró mâi dtâwng òk-bpai thîi èuun) "Working online helps increase resting time too, because there's no need to go out elsewhere." มันอันตรายเวลาขับรถช่วงอากาศแบบนี้ เพราะลมแรงและฝนตก (Man an-dtà-raai way-laa khàb-rót chûang aa-gàad bàeb-níi phró lom raeng láe fǒn-dtòk) "It's dangerous to drive in this kind of weather because of strong wind and rain." เราตัดสินใจทำงานที่บ้าน เพราะมีเวลาส่วนตัวมากขึ้น (Rao dtàd-sǐn-jai tham-ngaan thîi bâan phró mii way-laa sùan-dtua mâak khûen)"We decided to work from home because it allows for more personal time." This structure not only helps explain reasons but also connects your ideas smoothly, which is key to more advanced conversations in Thai. <strong style="font-family: inherit; font-size: calc(18px * var(--body-fontSize, 1)); font-style: var(--body-fontStyle, normal);" data-mce-style="font-family: inherit; font-size: calc(18px * var(--body-fontSize, 1)); font-style: var(--body-fontStyle, normal);">Get the PDF version with all levels and audios 10% OFF contact via e-mail : <a href="mailto:narissworkspace@gmail.com" data-mce-href="mailto:narissworkspace@gmail.com">narissworkspace@gmail.com</a>
