อัน ดับ หนึ่ง

I am a bit confused with this:

1). What is the most exact translation (first thing first, most urgent, most important).

2). What means ดับ (extinguish) in this ?

Thank you

I am a bit confused with this:

1). What is the most exact translation (first thing first, most urgent, most important).

2). What means ดับ (extinguish) in this ?

Thank you

first at all its not "อัน ดับ" but it is "อันดับ" , not compound word, just 1 word

อันดับ = level ; sequence ; series ; rank ; grade ; level

Q = 1). What is the most exact translation (first thing first, most urgent, most important).

A = depends on context , can be all as u ask

Q =2). What means ดับ (extinguish) in this ?

A = in this word , its not compound word between อัน+ดับ

Thanks a lot.

I didn't found อันดับ in my dictionaries so I assumed wrong it is 3 words.

Now all is clear.

Thank you again
