พี่สาว(phîi-sǎao)ของ(khǎawng)ฉัน(chǎn) ___ ครู(khruu)
- 1อยู่(yùu)
- 2มี(mii)
- 3เป็น(bpen)
- 4ทำงาน(tham-ngaan)
Show answer
Correct: เป็น(bpen)
To state someone's occupation, Thai uses the copula "เป็น(bpen)": "พี่สาว(phîi-sǎao)ของ(khǎawng)ฉัน(chǎn)เป็น(bpen)ครู(khruu)". "อยู่(yùu)" would need a location, "มี(mii)" means "have/there is", and "ทำงาน(tham-ngaan)" cannot directly fill this slot; the grammatical phrase would be "ทำงาน(tham-ngaan)เป็น(bpen)ครู(khruu)".
ตอน(dtaawn)เด็ก(dèk) ๆ(dèk) ฉัน(chǎn) ___ มา(maa)เล่น(lên)ที่(thîi)สนาม(sà-nǎam)นี้(níi)ทุก(thúk)วัน(wan)
- 1กำลัง(gam-lang)
- 2เพิ่ง(phôeeng)
- 3เคย(khoeei)
- 4ยัง(yang)ไม่(mâi)
Show answer
Correct: เคย(khoeei)
"ตอน(dtaawn)เด็ก(dèk) ๆ(dèk)" together with "ทุก(thúk)วัน(wan)" establishes a repeated childhood habit, so "เคย(khoeei)" gives "used to come and play". "กำลัง(gam-lang)" marks an action in progress, "เพิ่ง(phôeeng)" means just/recently, and "ยัง(yang)ไม่(mâi)" means not yet; none expresses that past habit.
ความจริง(khwaam-jing) เขา(khǎo) รับ(ráp) ตำแหน่ง(dtam-nàaeng) นี้(níi) ไป(bpai) แล้ว(láaeo) และ(láe) ต่อมา(dtàaw-maa) เสียใจ(sǐaa-jai) อย่าง(yàang) มาก(mâak): ถ้า(thâa) เขา(khǎo) รู้(rúu) ผลลัพธ์(phǒn-láp) ล่วงหน้า(lûaang-nâa) เขา(khǎo) ___ รับ(ráp) ตำแหน่ง(dtam-nàaeng) นี้(níi) แน่(nâae)
- 1จะ(jà)
- 2กำลัง(gam-lang)
- 3ยัง(yang)ไม่(mâi)
- 4คง(khong)ไม่(mâi)
Show answer
Correct: คง(khong)ไม่(mâi)
The facts say that he did accept the position and later deeply regretted it, so the unreal condition requires irrealis "คง(khong) ไม่(mâi)": "ถ้า(thâa) เขา(khǎo) รู้(rúu) ผลลัพธ์(phǒn-láp) ล่วงหน้า(lûaang-nâa) เขา(khǎo) คง(khong) ไม่(mâi) รับ(ráp) ตำแหน่ง(dtam-nàaeng) นี้(níi) แน่(nâae)". "จะ(jà)" gives a plain prospective reading, "กำลัง(gam-lang)" is progressive, and "ยัง(yang) ไม่(mâi)" means not yet; none expresses the contrary-to-fact conclusion required by the stated history.

Methodology
This is the same placement engine used inside the Lenguia study-plan product. It combines 35 multiple-choice grammar, reading and vocabulary questions with listening items on real recorded audio, 10 short writing prompts and 5 speaking prompts, ordered from A1 to C1.
Scoring uses a pass-threshold model: each CEFR level is "passed" when you earn roughly two-thirds of its available points, and your result is the highest level you pass consecutively starting from A1. This rewards consistent competence rather than lucky guesses. Results range from A1 to C1 (the test does not grade C2).
The items are informed by the competency descriptors of the Council of Europe CEFR framework. This is a free self-assessment: results are a reliable orientation, not a certified proficiency measurement.
The competency descriptors follow the Council of Europe CEFR framework.

Frequently asked questions
How accurate is this Thai cefr level test?
It uses the same item bank and pass-threshold scoring as the placement engine inside Lenguia's study-plan product, so the CEFR estimate is consistent and repeatable. Like any online self-assessment it is an orientation, not an official certificate.
Is it really free? Do I need an account?
Yes — the full test, the result and the shareable certificate are free, with no signup. If you create an account afterwards, your result can be used to build a personalized study plan.
What levels can I get?
A1, A2, B1, B2 or C1. A level counts as reached when you earn roughly two-thirds of its points and have passed every level below it. C2 is not graded.
Can I retake the test?
Yes, as often as you like. Questions within each level are shuffled, and your latest result replaces the previous one on this device.
Do I need a microphone?
Only for the short speaking section — you can skip those questions and still get a full result for the other skills.
