Questions & Answers about คืน นี้ เลิก ทำงาน กี่โมง ครับ
Why is กี่โมง at the end of the sentence instead of the beginning?
In English, we start questions with 'What time'. In Thai, question words like กี่โมง (what time) usually go at the end of the sentence, right before the polite particle. You are literally asking 'Tonight finish work what time?'.
What does เลิก mean here, and can I use it to say I finished my dinner?
เลิก means 'to stop', 'to quit', or 'to get off' from a routine activity. You use it here to mean 'get off work' (เลิกทำงาน). You would not use it for finishing a meal or a specific small task; for that, you would use a different word like เสร็จ (completed).
Where is the word for 'you' in this sentence?
How do คืน and นี้ combine to mean 'tonight'?
คืน means 'night' and นี้ means 'this'. In Thai, pointing words like 'this' or 'that' always come after the noun they describe. So 'tonight' or 'this night' is literally structured as 'night this' (คืนนี้).
