There are also many words which we use for You

I will teach you some formal and informal words which you can use for You

Most common and basic word is Khun

You can use Khun for formal and informal situations

Khun is also used with someone's name   for adding more politeness for example Mr. Albert  then you can say Khun Albert
 

Mr alber = Khun albert

🌌🌌You can use Khun  for "You"  and also in front of name in sense of politeness 🌌🌌

Author. Is it clear friends??😶

Informal words

Thooe  .  gaae  .  eng  .  mueng are some words which are informal and used for You

Mueng is used for close friends and it is most informal word It is equal of guu

Thooe  , gaae ,  eng  are  also infornal but it used if you are not that close to that friend yet and want to sound more polite

Formal words

Luue and than are formal words which used for You in thai

Luue is a word which use for thai chienese people

Than is a very formal word which you can use when you are talking to someone you respect or  higher status like professor etc and it also used in front of name like in sense of politeness like khun
For example Mr Alber = Than Albert

💙If you don't want to memorize so many words then just learn that three words

Khun: for any formal and informal situations
Mueng : for close friends
Than: for respectable people and higher status

And if you even don't want to memorize three words

Then

I  suggest you Khun because you can use it for formal and informal situations

It is common and basic word which used for close friends , higher status and etc all
