How to say “News” in Thai
ข่าว
khàao
“news”
“News” in Thai is ข่าว, written khàao in the Latin alphabet.
Tone
ข่าว carries a low tone — below your resting pitch, and it stays there. Thai uses tone to tell words apart, so the pitch is part of the word, not an accent you can drop.
The shortest way in is an English intonation you already use. Say “Don’t.” out loud — quiet and stern, the warning you give without raising your voice — then say ข่าว with that same shape.
