Questions & Answers about เรา จะ คัดกรอง ประวัติ ของ คุณ ก่อน ครับ
How is the word คัดกรอง formed?
It is made of two verbs: คัด (to pick out or select) and กรอง (to filter). Combined as คัดกรอง, it means to screen or sift through. This is commonly used for job applications, medical checks, or security.
I learned that ประวัติ means history. Why is it translated as background here?
You are right that ประวัติ generally means history. However, in administrative, HR, or medical contexts, it refers to your personal background, record, or profile. When applying for a job, your resume is often called ประวัติส่วนตัว (personal history), which is often shortened to just ประวัติ.
Why is ก่อน at the end of the sentence instead of before a noun?
When ก่อน (before) is placed at the very end of a clause or sentence, it acts as an adverb meaning first or before doing anything else. The speaker is stating the screening happens first. You will often see this structure setting up a strict condition, such as a next step that will happen ก็ต่อเมื่อ (only when) the screening is passed.
Can I omit ของ and just say ประวัติคุณ?
Yes, dropping ของ (of or belonging to) is very common in everyday speech to show possession. However, keeping ของ makes the sentence sound slightly more formal and professional, which perfectly matches the administrative tone of screening a background.
