English Thai Speech Files
young (adj.) อ่อนเยาว์*
old (adj.) แก่ชรา*

* Each of the words above is composed of two parts, each of which has virtually the same meaning. The internal order of each compound is fixed. Thus you must say
อ่อนเยาว์ and แก่ชรา, not the other way around. However, you can opt to use only แก่ to say that a person is old.
