How do you ask "Can you help me?" in Thai?

The phrase "คุณช่วยฉันได้ไหม" (khun chuai chan dai mai) directly translates to "Can you help me?" in Thai. Each component of the sentence contributes to this meaning: "คุณ" (khun) means "you," "ช่วย" (chuai) means "to help," "ฉัน" (chan) means "me," "ได้" (dai) indicates capability or possibility, and "ไหม" (mai) is used to form a yes/no question. This construction is standard when making a polite request for assistance in Thai.

The other options provided do not convey the concept of requesting help. For example, "คุณทำได้ไหม" (khun tham dai mai) translates to "Can you do it?" which is more general and does not specifically ask for help. "คุณไปไหน" (khun bpai nai) means "Where are you going?" and is irrelevant to the context of assistance. Lastly, "คุณกินข้าวไหม" (khun gin khao mai) translates to "Are you eating rice?" which is unrelated to offering or asking for help. Thus, the first option is the only one that accurately captures the intended request for assistance.
