Walking In The Shade

[xkkpafi]

I occassionally find that what should be the most simple of things to say in Thai ends up as a major complication that none of my relatives can resolve so I then need to turn to this forum. When out walking the other day I needed to say "I prefer to walk in the shade" that is, under the trees away from the sun. I didn't need a paraply (ร่ม) nor a lamp with a shade (ฉาย ??) but just to walk in the shade. Would somebody kindly help me with this phrase. Many thanks

Good question! I'm guessing, something like

ผมต้องการเดินถนนอยู่ในร่มเงา

Looks promising. ร่มเงา seems to have some logic about it. Ill give it a try when I get home. Many thanks.

"I prefer to walk in the shade" - ผมชอบเดินอยู่ในที่ร่ม

That's how Thais would say.

in the shade - ที่ร่ม

Oh, yeah! Thanks Yoot. Always seems SO obvious once someone tells me!!
