good solid answers, kris. only two points to add:

กี่ needs to have a 'mai ehk' (it's pronounced with a low tone)

instead of บ่อยเท่าไร, use บ่อยแค่ไหน (because 'how often' isn't a numerical concept)

all the best

am i supposed to put a mai krap at the end of that? it reads more like a sentence than a question

what are your working hours/what time do you start and finish work?

คุณเริ่มทำงานกีโมงและเลิกทำงานกีโมง

this also reads like a question, do i need a word at the end for "when"?

"กี่ needs to have a 'mai ehk' (it's pronounced with a low tone)"

which sentence does this refer too?

Posted

In the first case, it is a question - not a statement. (sorry, no Thai script from this browser).

The "gii kon" means "how many people?" You can add "krap" at the end to be polite, but not "mai krap" - which would not fit that construction. It is already a question. (In English, you wouldn't ask: "how many brothers and sisters do you have, or no?")

In the second, the "gii mohng" means "when? (at what time/how many hours?)." No need to add another "when."

As for the "needs to have a 'mai ehk' (it's pronounced with a low tone)" - that applies to all the sentences where "gii" is used. Without the 'mai ehk' it is not a Thai word. That was just a simple typo on kriswillems' part, as he has acknowledged.

Where do you like to eat around here? (i don't want it to sound like an invitation) = khun chomb gin yuu nai khaang khaang ???

What is your favorite food = khun aahaan khaawng broht arai ???

How many girls sleep upstairs = Pooying naawn yu khaang bohn tao rai ???

is the mai ehk pronounced or just added to the written word?

thanks.

"mai ehk" is a tone indicator. As such, "it" is not pronounced; it indicates that the syllable pronunciation is low tone, in this case (as aanon stated).
