Questions & Answers about เขา กำลัง ปิดบัง ความลับ หรือเปล่า ครับ

How does หรือเปล่า change the feel of the question compared to using ไหม?
หรือเปล่า literally translates to "or not?" and is often used when you already suspect the answer might be yes. You are asking for confirmation, like saying "Is he hiding a secret (or not)?" In contrast, ไหม is for neutral yes/no questions where you genuinely have no idea what the answer is.
What does the word กำลัง do in this sentence?
กำลัง is placed before a verb to show that an action is currently happening, similar to the "-ing" ending in English. Here, it changes the action from just "hides" to "is hiding" right now.
Why does the word for "a secret" (ความลับ) start with ความ?
ความ is a common prefix that turns adjectives and verbs into abstract nouns (concepts or things you cannot physically touch). The word ลับ means "hidden" or "secret" (as an adjective), so adding ความ turns it into the noun "a secret".
Could I use the word ซ่อน for "hiding" instead of ปิดบัง?
No, because they are used for different types of hiding. ซ่อน is used for physically hiding an object or a person. ปิดบัง is used for concealing abstract things like information, feelings, or the truth, which is exactly what you do with a secret.
