How to make a question for “Can” in Thai

Using “can” in a sentence is a helpful way to understand if something is possible or not.

You can also use this as an affirmative response or to express ability.

Remember:

Can? = “Dai mai” (low tone, rising tone)

Use “Dai” alone for the word “can” if it’s not a question.

Placing “mai” after a verb makes it a question mark.
