Questions & Answers about บาง วิชา ง่าย ครับ
The lesson teaches the structure "บาง + Noun + Classifier", but here we just have บาง วิชา. Where is the classifier?
For certain words in Thai, the noun and the classifier are exactly the same word. วิชา (subject) is one of those words. Instead of saying วิชาบางวิชา (Noun + บาง + Classifier), which sounds repetitive, it is perfectly natural to drop the first noun and just say บางวิชา (บาง + Classifier) to mean "some subjects".
Could I switch the word order and say วิชาบาง instead?
No, that would sound incorrect. บาง (some) must always go right before the classifier. You can use the full structure วิชาบางวิชา (Noun + บาง + Classifier), but you cannot just put บาง at the end.
Why is there no Thai word for "are" in this sentence?
In Thai, adjectives like ง่าย (easy) can function as verbs all by themselves. You don't need a "to be" verb (like เป็น or คือ) before an adjective. The word ง่าย already carries the meaning of "to be easy".
Can บางวิชา also mean "a certain subject" (singular) rather than "some subjects" (plural)?
No, บาง specifically means "some" or "a portion of", so it naturally translates to the plural "some subjects" in English. It points out that out of all the subjects, a few of them are easy.
