Definition of tham

tham

noun

  • object masculine singular form of that

    Etymology: "that him" It's like saying "That him", and its the object of the sentence. Pronounced like (THahm).

    Example: There were three guys I was with: Guy A, Guy B, Guy C. I bought Guy A a soda and I bought Guy B a coke, I also bought thim a Pepsi.

    "thim" is referring to Guy A, because Guy A is less immediate within the contexts of the sentence. But if the word "him" was used then there would be ambiguity and we would not know if one is talking about Guy A or Guy B.

    This is the most useful when talking about people who are present with you.

    If Guy A and Guy B are in proximity while one is saying this, then instead of relying on the context of the sentence, one would rely on the context of their physical surroundings. If Guy A is closer to you than Guy B, than one would actually be referring to Guy B.
