Wizard’s Wisdom: Time Structure in Thai

In Thai, when telling time, you don’t use the same structure as in English. Instead of saying ‘It is 3 o’clock,’ you would say เวลา สาม โมง (wé-la sāam mong), which translates to ‘Time three hour.’ Remember this unique structure when discussing time in Thai!
