A smile, a “hello” and a “how are you” will make an immediate
positive impression. Thailand is known as the Land of Smiles, and
you will soon be saying “hello” and smiling with more people than
you can remember.
TOP TIP: When referring to the self in Thai, as in “I”, there is a
form for male and a form for female, just as there is with khrup and
ka. Men say “Phom”, and women say “Chan”, or “Di-chan” when
speaking very politely.
There are also forms where age is concerned. When speaking to
an elder, you should refer to that person as “Pii”. To get the
attention of an elder you would say, “Pii khrup/ka”. To get the
attention of a younger person you would say, “Nong khrup/ka”.
When referring to a child you can use the word “Luuk”, which
literally means child.

Latein – ja oder nein?

(A)  Lange Zeit war es in Deutschland ein UNVERZICHTBARER Teil der höheren Bildung: Latein. Vieles sprach dafür: Die Beschäftigung mit dieser alten Sprache zwang Schüler dazu, detaillierte Grammatik-Kenntnisse zu erwerben. 
(B)  Wer weitere Fremdsprachen lernen wollte, konnte IN DER REGEL auf dieser Basis aufbauen. Nicht nur Grammatik, auch ein Großteil des Vokabulars findet sich in modernen romanischen Sprachen wieder. Selbst für das Englische sind Lateinkenntnisse sehr nützlich. 
(C)  Und schließlich basiert im Deutschen fast das ganze Spektrum an Fremdwörtern auf der lateinischen Sprache. Anders ausgedrückt, wer Latein kann, hat kein Problem, sich auf einem hohen sprachlichen Niveau auszudrücken.
(D)  Und doch legen neue Studien nahe, dass man heutzutage besser Zeit und Mühe in das Lernen einer modernen Fremdsprache investieren sollte. In unserer globalisierten Welt kann man nicht früh genug damit beginnen, sich Sprachen anzueignen, in denen man konkret mit anderen Menschen kommunizieren kann. Wer dann noch Zeit und Lust und Energie hat, kann Latein ja jederzeit als Hobby betreiben.
