This study employed a qualitative research design. The research instrument was an unstructured interview. The key informants consisted of three participants selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected from relevant documentary sources and unstructured interviews and subsequently analyzed using content analysis. The findings revealed that 1) The legend states that the Bueng Khong Long area was originally a city called Ratphanakhon, ruled by King Uelue. His grandson, Prince Farung, married Nang Nakarinthani, the daughter of a Naga king who transformed into a human to bridge the relationship between the human world and the underworld. They lived together for three years but had no children. Later, she fell ill and accidentally transformed back into a Naga. She terrified the townspeople and banished her back to the underworld. The Naga king was furious because the family's regalia he had given her were not returned. He then led his army to destroy the city of Ratphanakhon, leaving only three temples intact. The destroyed city became Bueng Long Khong which later evolved into Bueng Khong Long in modern times. King Uelue was cursed to become a Naga, guarding this lake forever until a new city is built, at which point the curse will be lifted. Today, the villagers have developed a faith in him, leading to the Bun Duean Sam (Third Month Festival) tradition, with people flocking to worship him and 2) Create Dance Composition titled Pasangsa Naga Uelue which includes composing new lyrics and melodies and designing costumes to visually represent the story of Grandfather Uelue Naga in the Bun Duean Sam tradition.

A Study on the Presentation of Purpose-Expressing Grammar “Tameni” and “Youni” in Elementary Japanese Textbooks

2026-04-02T22:57:02+07:00

This research consists purposes were 1. to analyze and compare the content, grammatical explanations, and exercises regarding the usage of the purposive expressions “Tameni” and “Youni” appearing in elementary Japanese textbooks and 2. to propose instructional guidelines for these grammar points suitable for the context of Thai learners. This study employed a qualitative research approach using documentary research methodology. The research instrument was a content analysis form developed based on theoretical frameworks. The target group comprised three elementary Japanese textbooks widely used in Thai educational institutions: Minna no Nihongo, Akiko to Tomodachi and Daichi, selected through purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using content analysis to compare distinctive features and observations. The results revealed that 1) In terms of content presentation, each textbook has distinct emphases. Minna no Nihongo provides the clearest explanation regarding verb volition. Daichi is notable for specifying restrictions on the use of the potential form. Akiko to Tomodachi emphasizes learning through situational contexts. However, a significant observation is that all three textbooks fail to clearly specify the condition regarding subject unity in the main and subordinate clauses, and they lack exercises designed to prevent errors stemming from Negative Transfer and 2) Instructional guidelines for Thai learners should emphasize comparing the differences between volitional and non-volitional verbs, verifying the subject of the sentence, and providing sufficient input to mitigate negative transfer from the Thai word “Puea,” which encompasses all contexts.
