Questions & Answers about เขา　ก็　จะ　โกรธ　ครับ

Why does ก็ (also) come before จะ (will) in this sentence?
In Thai, the word ก็ acts as a bridge right after the subject. The general rule is: Subject + ก็ + [everything else]. Because of this, ก็ must come before helping verbs like the future tense marker จะ. So, the Thai sentence literally flows as "He also will angry."
Where is the word for "be" in this sentence?
There isn't one! In Thai, emotion and description words like โกรธ (angry) act as verbs themselves. You never need to use a "to be" word (like เป็น or คือ) before them. You just say จะ โกรธ (will angry).
If I want to say "He is also angry" right now, how does the sentence change?
You would simply remove the future tense word จะ (will). The sentence becomes เขา ก็ โกรธ ครับ. The position of ก็ stays exactly the same: right after the subject เขา.
Could เขา also mean "she" or "they" in this sentence?
Yes, เขา is a versatile pronoun that can mean he, she, or they. You would know who is also going to be angry based on the context of the conversation. Keep in mind that the polite particle ครับ at the end only tells us that the speaker is male, not the person they are talking about.
