Questions & Answers about เพื่อน ก็ ดีใจ ครับ
Where exactly does ก็ go to mean 'also'?
It goes directly after the subject (เพื่อน, friend) and before the feeling or action (ดีใจ, glad). Even though in English we often put 'too' or 'also' at the end of the sentence, in Thai ก็ always sits right before the verb or adjective.
Why does the translation say 'My friend' when there is no word for 'my'?
Thai frequently drops pronouns and possessive words when the context makes it obvious. The word เพื่อน simply means 'friend', but in everyday conversation, it is understood as 'my friend' unless you specify otherwise.
What do the two parts of the word ดีใจ mean?
It is made up of ดี (good) and ใจ (heart). Thai uses the word ใจ combined with different adjectives to describe feelings and emotions. So having a 'good heart' means you are glad or happy!
Why is there no word for 'is' in this sentence?
In Thai, feeling and describing words like ดีใจ (glad) work like verbs on their own. You do not need to add a 'to be' word like 'is' or 'am' in front of them. The sentence literally flows as 'friend also glad'.
