Incompetant

[Deserted]

Does Thai have a word for incompetant? A colleague was saying that so-and-so was not good at his work and listed reasons. I said the word in English was incompetant. Do the thais have that word in their language or do they just say tamgnarn mai dee?

Does not have capability is the closest word-for-word translation back into English. FYI, Google translate...

Might be best to learn how to spell it correctly.....incompetent......not you, the correct spelling.

The basic "not skillful" is an easy catch-all and not so strong, though a captious Thai might find it insulting anyway.
