      Different because it uses gender from the speaker point of view. Unlike English where you end sentences with the gender of the person being spoken to . But at least it's not French.

    I live in the U.S. and visiting Bangkok, Thailand in May 2025, and I need to know some words and phrases, maybe sentences. I hope some locals can also speak English. I've been to many countries around the world and there are at least few locals who are English speakers, especially when you eat in their restaurants. I'm keeping notes probably writing these 20 phrases in a small notepad to bring with me when I visit Thailand.
