āļāļīāļāļŦāļāđāļāļĒ (nidnoi) = use in the abstract concept when you want to focus on “fact”
For example:

āļāļīāļāđāļāļĩāļĒāļ§ (niddiaw) = use in the abstract concept and you think that thing is less than your expectation/the standard, here is focused on “your opinion which is less than your expectation”
For example:
āļāļąāļāļāļĒāļđāđāđāļāļĒ 5 āļāļĩ (āđāļĨāđāļ§) āđāļāđ āļāļđāļāļ āļēāļĐāļēāđāļāļĒāđāļāđ āļāļīāļāđāļāļĩāļĒāļ§

A word “For” in previous episodes, it is referred to different Thai words based on the contexts; hai āđāļŦāđ, samrab āļŠāļģāļŦāļĢāļąāļ, puea āđāļāļ·āđāļ, and some cases especially in daily life conversation Thai people don’t even say it, when it is “FOR + time ”
.
This episode we talk about FOR in a case you want to express your feelings in Thai language. We say a word “GAB āļāļąāļ” to refer to “FOR”
For example:
1.1) I am happy FOR you. Chan dee-jai “GAB” kun duay na
āļāļąāļāļāļĩāđāļ “āļāļąāļ” āļāļļāļ āļāđāļ§āļĒāļāļ°
1.2) I am sorry FOR you. Chan sia-jai “GAB” kun duay naka
āļāļąāļāđāļŠāļĩāļĒāđāļ “āļāļąāļ” āļāļļāļ āļāđāļ§āļĒāļāļ°āļāļ°
In the cases you show your feelings directly with that people.
But in case you say it with other people, we delete the word “na āļāļ°” “naka āļāļ°āļāļ°” “na krab āļāļ°āļāļĢāļąāļ”, the sentence will be ended with a word “DUAY āļāđāļ§āļĒ” So, it should be:
2.1) I (feel/am) happy FOR him.
Chan (roo-sueg) dee-jai GAB khao DUAY āļāļąāļ(āļĢāļđāđāļŠāļķāļ)āļāļĩāđāļāļāļąāļāđāļāļē āļāđāļ§āļĒ
2.2) I (feel/am) sorry FOR him.
Chan (roo-sueg) sia-jai GAB khao DUAY āļāļąāļ(āļĢāļđāđāļŠāļķāļ)āđāļŠāļĩāļĒāđāļāļāļąāļāđāļāļē āļāđāļ§āļĒ

The word “FOR” in Thai you can use in various words in Thai language namely: hai (āđāļŦāđ), samrab (āļŠāļģāļŦāļĢāļąāļ), puea (āđāļāļ·āđāļ). It is used in different contexts to refer to “For”. But when “for” in the context that is related to “period of time” you spend to do something, in Thai language we use “Bpen velaa (āđāļāđāļāđāļ§āļĨāļē) to refer to FOR” in formal way/writing version….. But in casual way/daily life conversation Thais just “SKIP the word FOR in the sentences” So, if you want to say “I lived in Bangkok for 7 years = Pom yoo tee Krungthep 7 bpee (āļāļĄāļāļĒāļđāđāļāļĩāđāļāļĢāļļāļāđāļāļāļŊ 7 āļāļĩ) …… In term of showing that you still have been doing something now and maybe still happen in the future, you can just “add the word “LAEW āđāļĨāđāļ§” at the end of sentences.
