Did you know? In Thai, we use the verb “เล่น” (to play) with computer, the Internet & Facebook or any other social media sites. 

E.g.

เดี๋ยวค่อยกิน เล่นคอมอยู่
[dǐaw kôi gin, lên com(puter) yùu]
I’m using the computer now. I’ll eat later. 

เวลาว่าง เราชอบเล่นเน็ต
[welaa wâng rao châwp lên nèt]
In my free time, I like to surf the Internet.

เขาเล่นเฟสบุ๊คไหม 
[káo lên Facebook mái?]
Does he/she use Facebook?
