Learning notes
Explanation
ประจำปี combines ประจำ, meaning regular or recurring, with ปี, meaning year. Its core idea is something scheduled or recognized on a yearly basis. It usually follows a noun, as in งานประจำปี, รายงานประจำปี, การประชุมประจำปี, or โบนัสประจำปี. It is common in workplaces, schools, organizations, government contexts, and formal notices.
Usage
Use it for annual events, meetings, reports, budgets, bonuses, awards, health checkups, and other things that are formally done or prepared once a year.
Caution
Do not use ประจำปี as a general replacement for “every year” with verbs. For actions, ทุกปี is usually natural: ฉันไปไทยทุกปี means “I go to Thailand every year.”
