Questions & Answers about มลพิษ ใน ทะเล คุกคาม สัตว์ ค่ะ
Why is มลพิษ pronounced "mon-la-pit" with an extra "la" sound in the middle?
This is a borrowed word from Pali/Sanskrit. In many formal or academic words like มลพิษ, the parts aren't just pushed together. Instead, an unwritten short "a" sound links them, making it "mon-la-pit" rather than "mon-pit".
Do we need a relative pronoun like ที่ to link the pollution and the sea, like มลพิษที่อยู่ในทะเล?
No, it is not strictly necessary. While you could say มลพิษที่อยู่ในทะเล (pollution that is in the sea), Thai often attaches prepositional phrases like ในทะเล directly after the noun they describe to keep sentences concise.
The word คุกคาม (to threaten) is used here. Can I also use it if a person physically threatens someone?
Yes, คุกคาม works for both abstract dangers like pollution and direct human intimidation or harassment. It carries a strong, somewhat formal tone that is very common in news, science, or serious reports.
This lesson focuses on the cause-and-effect structure using ดังนั้น and จึง. How would I use this sentence as the cause for a result like "therefore animals die"?
You would use this entire sentence as the premise, follow it with ดังนั้น, then the subject of the next clause, then จึง, and finally the verb. For example: มลพิษในทะเลคุกคามสัตว์ ดังนั้นสัตว์จึงตายค่ะ (Pollution in the sea threatens animals, therefore animals die).
