Translate please. Useful words and phrases for working on a Thai farm.
More to come, but these are the ones I'm struggling with at the moment (any more I have already found decent translations on thai-language.com, but will post up my spreadsheet of words here for corrections/ usefulness to others once I've typed it up).
1. Where does this go/belong? 2. Can you get _____ ? 3. Some more, please. 4. No more, please. 5. Over here. 6. Over there. 7. Be careful!
Thanks,
Adam

Re: Translate please. Useful words and phrases for working on a Thai farm.
Some may have many different versions depending on the contexts. I will try to give at least one for each and make it like what I'd say in a conversation, not the formal ones.
1. (อันนี้/ไอ้นี่) (อยู่/ไว้/เอาไว้) (ตรงไหน/ที่ไหน) e.g. อันนี้ไว้ตรงไหน, ไอ้นี่เอาไว้ตรงไหนครับ
2. [คุณ]ไปเอา ___ มาหน่อยได้มั้ย
3. อีกนิดนึง
4. พอแล้ว/ไม่เอาแล้ว
5. ตรงนี้/ทางนี้
6. ตรงนั้น/ตรงนู้น/ตรงโน้น
7. ระวัง O_O!! ระวังนะ
For each of these, you can add ครับ/นะ/คะ/ or other appropriate ending particles at the end. That's from my part. I hope to see more from the others too

I'm not sure if this will have been successful, but I've attached six documents which make up my farm vocabulary spreadsheet. I've put English, Thai, and transliteration for all the words on the list. These spreadsheets should be helpful to both Thai and English speakers who wish to learn vocabulary associated with working on a farm.
If you see any mistakes either in spelling, grammar, or translation choice for words, or if you have any suggestions as to how I could improve this list, I would be very grateful.
Many thanks also to Nymphaea for helping out with the basic sentences and good luck to everyone with your language learning,
Adam

Re: Translate please. Useful words and phrases for working on a Thai farm.
Some corrections:
buffalo grass [for animals] noun หญ้าขน คำนาม yaa F khohn R (not yaa M khohn R, as I had written - Thai was correct)
weak adjective ขี้โรค คำคุณศัพท์ khee F ro:hk (not ขี้โรด, as I had written - English transcription was correct)
Don't do that! อย่ทำอย่างนั้น yaa L tham M yaang L nan H (not "Please don’t do that. กรุณาอย่ทำอย่างนั้น ga L roo H naa M yaa L tham M yaang L nan H" since a person is not likely to obey this instruction if asked so politely).
