คุณ　ชอบ　ดู　หนัง　ไหม　ครับ
Do you like watching movies? (polite, male)
From Lesson 9:Yes/No questions (ไหม)·Thai

Questions & Answers about คุณ　ชอบ　ดู　หนัง　ไหม　ครับ

How do I answer "yes" to this question?
To answer "yes" to a ไหม question, you echo the main verb. The main verb here is ชอบ (to like). So, you simply say ชอบ (literally "like"), and you can add ครับ or ค่ะ to make it polite.
How would I answer "no" if I don't like movies?
You use the word ไม่ (not) followed by the main verb. For this question, you would answer ไม่ ชอบ (literally "not like").
English changes the second verb to "watching" with an "-ing". Does Thai do anything like that?
No, Thai verbs never change their form! You just place the two verbs right next to each other. ชอบ (like) + ดู (watch) naturally becomes "like watching".
The translation says "movies". How do I know it means more than one?
Thai nouns don't change to show plurals. The word หนัง can mean "a movie" or "movies" depending on the context. Since this is a question about a general hobby, "movies" makes the most sense here.
