    i've just found your site and really enjoying your lessons. In this lesson you teach how to say 'you' to younger (nephew / niece) and older (aunt / unlce)... what about someone who is your equal? (similar age / status)

    In Thai we call Loong (male) or Pah(female) to the person who is older than your parents but not too much. You should call Khun (general people) or Thur (close friend) to the person who is similar age to you.
