Questions & Answers about คุณ เห็น โพสต์ นั้น เมื่อไร คะ
Why doesn't the Thai sentence have a past tense word like แล้ว if it means 'When did you see'?
In Thai, past tense markers aren't strictly required if the context makes it clear. Because you are asking about an event that already happened (seeing a specific post), the past tense is understood naturally without needing extra grammar words.
Why is เมื่อไร (when) at the end of the sentence instead of the beginning?
Unlike English, Thai puts most question words at the end of the sentence or right after the object. The word order here literally translates to 'You see post that when?'.
โพสต์ looks and sounds like the English word 'post'. How is it pronounced in Thai?
It is an English loanword, but Thai doesn't allow 'st' consonant clusters at the end of a word. The symbol over the final consonant is a cancellation mark, meaning the final sounds are dropped. You pronounce it simply as 'poht' with a high tone.
How would I answer this question with 'I just saw it', using the word เพิ่ง from this lesson?
You put เพิ่ง directly before the main verb เห็น (to see). To answer 'I just saw it', you would say ฉันเพิ่งเห็น (I just see).
