Questions & Answers about บริษัท จะ จัด งานเลี้ยง ปีใหม่ ครับ
How does the word จะ make this a future action?
In Thai, verbs like จัด (to organize) never change their form or spelling. To show that an action will happen in the future or that there is an intention to do it, you simply put the word จะ (will) directly before the verb.
Why is it written as งานเลี้ยง ปีใหม่ (party New Year) instead of the other way around?
In Thai, the main noun always comes first, and the describing words follow it. Since งานเลี้ยง (party) is the main object, it comes first, and ปีใหม่ (New Year) comes after to describe what kind of party it is.
What do the individual parts of the word งานเลี้ยง (party) mean?
It is made of two words: งาน (event, work, or festival) and เลี้ยง (to feed, treat, or host). So an event where you are treated or fed naturally translates to a party or banquet!
I do not see words for 'the' or 'a' in this sentence. Do we need them?
No, Thai does not use articles like the English words 'the' or 'a'. You just say บริษัท for 'the company' and งานเลี้ยง ปีใหม่ for 'a New Year party'. The exact meaning is easily understood from the context of the conversation.
Are ปี and ใหม่ another example of the noun-first rule?
Yes! ปี means year (the noun) and ใหม่ means new (the adjective describing it). Just like the party itself, the describing word comes last.
