Basic Thai Language & Commonly Used Thai Phrases
Thai language uses long & short tones, high tones & low tones to
describe a word, a word such as (Ma) has more than 3 meanings, depending on the tone its spoken with.
eg: Ma = Horse, Dog & Come
Most Thai language books I have read are very confusing and the correct pronunciation of simple words can still
be quite a challenge.
eg: The word "thank you" is spelt "Khurp"
in most language books.
For an English speaking person, this word sounds the same as "Cup" .
The words I have listed below have been written as you would pronounce it in English, I have not used any variations
of tones as this will only confuse you.
Just say the word as if it was English language & you
will be understood by most of the Thai locals.
