Take a moment to explore these relevant pages as you conclude this lesson: Count to 10 & Describing Colors.
Basic Health VocabularyEdit
Let's start by looking at some basic Thai vocabulary related to health:
| Thai | Pronunciation | English |
|---|---|---|
| ไข้ | khâi | fever |

| ไอ | ai | cough |
| จมูกขี้มูก | jà-mùuk kêe-mùuk | runny nose |

Here are a few examples to illustrate how to use these words in context:

Common IllnessesEdit
Next, let's look at some common illnesses in Thailand:
โรคหัวใจ (Rok hǔa jai) - Heart diseaseEdit
Heart disease is the number one cause of death in Thailand. A diet high in salt and unhealthy fats, lack of exercise, and smoking are all contributing factors. Eating a balanced diet low in fat and salt, regular exercise, and not smoking can help prevent heart disease.

โรคเบาหวาน (Rok bao wăan) - DiabetesEdit
Diabetes is a growing health problem in Thailand, especially among urban populations. The rise of fast food and sedentary lifestyles has contributed to the increase in diabetes cases. Eating a balanced diet and regular exercise can help prevent diabetes.
- Person 1: คุณควรหลีกเลี่ยงอาหารที่มันสูง (Khun kuan lìik-lîiang aa-hăan tîi man sǔung) (You should avoid high-fat food)
- Person 2: ฉันกำลังเรียนรู้วิธีการควบคุมระดับน้ำตาลในเลือด (Chǎn gamlang riian-rúu wí-thii gaan khuap-khum rá-dàp náam-taan nai lĕuat) (I am learning how to manage blood sugar levels)
Traditional Thai MedicineEdit
Thailand has a rich tradition of natural healing that dates back thousands of years. Traditional Thai medicine includes practices such as massage, herbal remedies, and spiritual healing.
นวดแผนไทย (Núat pǎen tai) - Thai MassageEdit
Thai massage is a form of bodywork that incorporates various techniques such as stretching, acupressure, and reflexology. It is believed to stimulate the flow of energy in the body and promote overall health and well-being.
- Person 1: วันนี้ฉันจะไปฟื้นตัวด้วยนวดแผนไทย (Wan née chǎn jà bpai fêun dtua duay núat pǎen tai) (Today, I will recover by receiving a Thai massage)
- Person 2: เสร็จแล้วลองประกอบด้วยการดื่มน้ำสมุนไพรและออกกำลังกาย (Sèt láew lǎawng bprà-gòrp duay gaan-dèum náam sà-moon-pai láe àwk gamlang-gaai) (Afterwards, try supplementing with drinking herbal tea and exercising)
จิตรกรรมไทย (Jìttrà-gam tai) - Traditional Thai Art TherapyEdit
Traditional Thai art therapy, or jìttrà-gam tai, involves using art as a means of emotional and spiritual healing. It includes painting, drawing, and other art forms, and aims to help individuals express and release their emotions in a safe and creative environment.
- Person 1: ลองทำภาพวาดเพื่อแก้ปัญหาอารมณ์โดน (Lǎawng tham phaap wâat pêua gâe bpan-hăa aa-rom-don) (Try drawing to solve your emotional problems)
- Person 2: ฉันจะลองทำมันดู (Chǎn jà lǎawng tham man duu) (I'll try it)
Emergency SituationsEdit
Finally, let's look at some Thai vocabulary related to emergency situations:
| Thai | Pronunciation | English |

| ฉุกเฉิน | chúk-chern | emergency |
| เรียกพยาบาล | riak-pa-ya-baan | call an ambulance |
| สายด่วน | săai-dùan | hotline |
| พยาบาล | pa-ya-baan | nurse |
| แพทย์ | pháet | doctor |
| การช่วยเหลือ | gaan-chûai-lĕua | assistance |
Here are some examples to use in case of emergency:
- Person 1: ผมเห็นเหตุฉุกเฉินที่ถนนเลย (Phǒm hěn hèt chúk-chern tîi tànǒn loei) (I saw an emergency on the road)
- Person 2: ฉันจะเรียกพยาบาลเลย (Chǎn jà riak-pa-ya-baan loei) (I'll call an ambulance)
- Person 1: คุณมีหมายเลขสายด่วนหรือเปล่า (Khun mii măay-lèk săai-dùan rĕu bplào) (Do you have the hotline number?)
