good morning = A-Run-Sa-Wad
good afternoon = Sa-Wad-Dee
good night = Ra-Tree-Sa-Wad
how r you? = Sa-Bai-Dee-Mai
have you eaten? = Gin-Khao-Ru-Yang
how is your day? = Wan-Nee-Pen-Yang-Ngai
miss you = Kid-Tung-kun
love you = Rag-Kun
darling = Tee-Rag
To make these more formal, end sentences or words with
"Ka" if you are female, with "Krab" if you are male.
To sweeten the word, Thai end sentence and words with "Jah". Mostly use in family member, lover or among good girl friend.
I think you will interest this website

The language is called Thai.
Go to learningthai.com
Under the Learningthai.com logo there are the words "speak, read, write, listen"
Click on the word speak
Scroll down just a bit and you will see chapter headings.
Chapter one deals with "Greetings and useful phrases"
Chapter two- shopping, three around town, etc...
This is a good site to learn with because if you click on the blue Thai words then a native speaker will say the word for you.
Another good site is Learn-thai.com
At the top of the page are things that say home, software, dictionary, etc...
Click on Dictionary
You shouldn't have to scroll down at all just type the word you want a translation for in the search bar in the middle of the page and click "look up"
For example if you type in "love" you'll will be shown 6 different phrases with the word love in them.
I just checked and I love you is the website and I love you(male version) is the third one down and is:
phõm rák khun (Well, that's the phenetic english pronunciation at least) The thai alphabet has different letters than English and it wouldn't let me copy and paste it...
Well, good luck- sorry this was kind of long!

The problem w/learning the langauge is always the transliterations as they have sounds that English does not have.. The lady above is obviously Thai and quite smart and yet, the use of english language alphabet makes the translation difficult.. She spelled the word for love - rag.. which in English would rhyme w/bag - most phrase books will use ruk or rak but the word is actually spoken very similar to the way we pronounce "luck" - I have created a short phrase book called Your First Hundred Words - learning Thai in perfect English.. it works for pronounciation pretty well.. If you like, I will email it to you.. its abt 10 pages.. feel free to contact me but enclose an email adress and I will send it along - Thai language can be lots of fun..

thai-language.com http://www.thai-language.com/ is a good resource. as for good morning/afternoon/night... it's easy: all the same greeting: "Sawat-dee ka" (if you are a female speaker) and "Sawat-dee kap" (if you are a male speaker). "i love you" is "Pom rak khun", "darling" is "Tee-rak". sounds like 'tee-rock' that's about the extent of my Thai...

i do no longer understand what you quite mean? "do u have ur breakfast?" = Khun(u) mee(have) ahaan chao(breakfast) mai?(do+?) or "did u have ur breakfast?" = Khun(u) taan(have) ahaan chao(breakfast) rue yuang?(did+yet+?) Please word, the language used in Thailand stated as Thai language.
