Questions & Answers about คุณ เจอ ใคร ครับ

Why is ใคร (who) placed at the end of the sentence?
In English, we put "who" at the start of the question. In Thai, question words like ใคร stay in the exact spot where the answer will go. Since the person you met is the object of the verb, ใคร sits in the object position. The sentence literally translates to "You meet who?".
The English translation says "did you meet", but I don't see any past tense words. How does that work?
Thai verbs like เจอ don't change form for the past tense, and you don't always need to add a time-marking word if the context makes it obvious. If someone just returned from an outing, asking คุณ เจอ ใคร ครับ naturally implies the past tense: "Who did you meet?".
Does เจอ only mean meeting a person?
No, เจอ is a very useful everyday word that means to encounter something. It means casually "meeting" someone, but it also means "to find" something you were looking for or stumbled upon (like finding your lost phone).
Does the polite particle ครับ always come after the question word?
Yes! Polite particles like ครับ (for men) and ค่ะ (for women) belong at the absolute end of the phrase. They wrap up the whole thought, so they are placed after ใคร rather than before it.
