Questions & Answers about โปรเจกต์ นี้ เรา ต้อง ทบทวน ค่ะ
Why is โปรเจกต์นี้ at the very beginning of the sentence instead of after the verb ทบทวน?
This is a classic example of the topic-comment structure. By pulling the object (โปรเจกต์นี้ - this project) to the front of the sentence, the speaker is emphasizing what the sentence is about. The rest of the sentence (เราต้องทบทวนค่ะ - we must review) acts as a comment on that topic.
The English translation says 'review it,' but there is no Thai word for 'it' at the end. Why?
In Thai, when the object has already been established as the topic at the beginning of the sentence, you don't need to repeat it with a pronoun. Leaving the original object slot empty is completely natural. Adding a word for 'it' here would actually sound redundant to a Thai speaker.
Is โปรเจกต์ the only way to say 'project'?
โปรเจกต์ is an English loanword that is extremely common in modern Thai workplaces and schools. You might also encounter the formal Thai word โครงการ, which is used in official contexts like government or large corporate initiatives. For everyday office tasks, โปรเจกต์ is perfectly natural.
Can I use ทบทวน for studying for a test, or is it only for work projects?
You can use it for both! ทบทวน means to review, go over, or revise. You can use it for reviewing a project plan, going over a contract, or revising your study notes before a Thai exam.
