Choosing a snack

In the dialogue, Narin asks เอาขนมไหมครับ — "Would you like a snack?", and Mali later says เอาเค้กค่ะ — "I'll have cake.". เอา is used both to ask what someone wants and to state your own choice. The English translation changes with the situation, but the Thai word เอา stays the same.

In the dialogue, Narin says ไม่เอาเค้กครับ — "I won't have cake.". ไม่ goes directly before the word it makes negative. That word can be an action or a describing word.

In the dialogue, Mali asks เอาเค้กด้วยไหมคะ — "Will you have cake too?". ด้วย adds the meaning "also" or "too". It comes at the end of the verb phrase, after the object when there is one.
