Hi there! I was wondering if you had any advice and/or recommended resources on learning Thai? I'm Thai on my mother's side but she never taught me, and I'm trying to learn while I'm here in Bangkok visiting her side of the family/doing an internship. Have a nice day!
hiiâĄ
for resources :
-Â Learn Thai Podcast-Â Woman Learn Thai-Â Letâs Talk Thai-Â Thai 101-Â Lingopolo/thai
from @blogresources languages masterpost
or you can visit this youtube channel! she is thai, but is living in england with her british fiance. she posts videos often, and has subtitles in english (mostly the new ones) this might help you with listening skills too!
for advice :
well, thai words were made up of old thai, chinese, sanskrit, pali, khmer, javanese, and other more, so there are many synonyms for just one word. thai can be as tricky as chinese when it comes to tones and pronunciations, itâs hard indeed, but once you get it, itâll be just a piece of cake⥠thai has its own very very formal language, very formal language, formal language, half formal language, informal language, and very informal language, including swearwords. they are sometimes tricky, but not too hard to expert ã―(*Âīâï―)
thatâs cool! itâs great to practice thai with native speakers here (*ï―ĨÏï―Ĩ)ïū if you have any questions about thai, feel free to message me! iâm always willing to help⥠and you too, have a nice day!
Found this and thought Iâd share it with you guys c:
months ending with -kom have 31 days those ending with -yon have thirty.
quite convenient

āļŠāļ§āļąāļŠāļāļĩāļāļĩāđāļŦāļĄāđ [sà -wà t-dee bpee mà i] HAPPY NEW YEAR :)
Hello! I have a question. If āļāļąāļ is a word that women use to say "I" why do I often hear men using it in songs?
âāļāļąāļâ can be used by females in an informal setting. Also, males can used this word with intimate friends or lovers. ð
Hereâs a Thai idiom I recently learned:
Itâs pronounced ângoo ngoo bplaa bplaaâ and it translates to âsnake snake fish fishâ but people use it to say that they know very little about something, especially a language.Â
Next time you tell a Thai person that you speak Thai a little bit (āļāļđāļāļ āļēāļĐāļēāđāļāļĒāđāļāđāļāļīāļāļŦāļāđāļāļĒ or poÃīt thai dÃĒi nÃt nÃēy) try saying āļāļđāļāļ āļēāļĐāļēāđāļāļĒāđāļāđāļāļđāđ āļāļĨāļēāđ (poÃīt thai dÃĒi ngoo ngoo bplaa bplaa) instead.
Iâm still trying to figure out why they say snake snake fish fish so if you know, tell me please!

Thai polite speech - Part 1
āļāļĢāļļāļāļŠāļ§āļąāļŠāļāļīāđāļāđāļ° (arun-sawat-ka) - good morning
âarun-sawatâ is a quite formal way to greet someone
āļāđāļ° (ka) - this is always put after youâve finished your sentence - this makes your speech more polite; you use âkaâ if you are female
āļāļĢāļąāļ ( krub/kub) - this has the same function as âkaâ only that âkrub/kubâ is used if you are male;
I wrote krub/kub for the pronuncation because in everyday speech most people - especially teens - will not pronounce the āļĢ (the tap/flap ârâ) if the āļĢ is placed after a consonant
