Verb to have

By admin

Hi Guys! How are you getting on with Thai numbers from my last blog?

Today I would like you guys to use our knowledge of  numbers with “verb to have”

Have in Thai is “Mee” มี

Example : I have a pen.

women say : Chan (I) mee parg-gaa(pen) ฉันมีปากกา

men say : Pom (I) mee parg-gaa(pen) ผมมีปากกา

Now let’s use  verb to have with our knowledge of units and numbers.

Jenny has 2 black cars
= Jenny mee rod(car) see(color) dam(black) song(two) kan(car’s unit).
เจนนี่มีรถสีแดงสองคัน
I have one sister and two brothers
=Chan/pom mee peesao(older sister) 1 khon lea(and) peechai(older brother) 2 khon(human’s unit) ฉันมีพี่สาวหนึ่งคนและพี่ชายสองคน

The antonym of mee (have)  is “mâi mee” (don’t have).

I don’t have any money = Chan/pom mâi mee dtang (money) ชั้น/ผมไม่มีตังค์

I hope you won’t have any problems (mai mee pan-ha) with verb to have anymore
