ทุกวัน

Explanation

ทุกวัน consists of ทุก (“every” or “each”) and วัน (“day”), so its literal structure is “every day.” It commonly follows the verb phrase, as in ฉันทำงานทุกวัน (“I work every day”). It can also appear at the beginning of a sentence to establish “every day” as the time frame for the whole statement. It is a common, neutral expression suitable for both casual and formal situations. Because Thai verbs do not change form for tense, ทุกวัน can also describe something that happened every day in the past or will happen every day in the future; the time frame comes from context or additional words.

Usage

It is used to discuss daily routines such as studying, working, exercising, eating, or commuting. It also describes schedules or situations that apply each day, such as a store being open every day.

Caution

Do not confuse ทุกวัน (“every day”) with ทั้งวัน (“all day”). ฉันทำงานทุกวัน means “I work every day,” while ฉันทำงานทั้งวัน means “I work all day.”
