| Introduction | ***** Get the NEW Thai Language Course, 5th Edition on DVD at http://tigerpressthai.com ***** This book provides the tools for learning to speak Thai. It is designed to help you to improve pronunciation and tones. The book begins at a basic level and gradually progresses to an advanced level. The transliteration (writing Thai using English letters) is designed to be readable. A tone mark is placed above the first vowel of each syllable. Throughout the text, a literal, word-for-word translation has been provided. Word-for-word translation is a powerful learning tool, particularly for the Thai language. The translation shows the exact word order of Thai sentences. This helps you to develop an intuitive sense of how the language is constructed. The best way to learn to speak Thai is to replicate the pronunciation of native Thai speakers. The speaker on the CD in Chapters 1 through 11 is a native of Bangkok. She is a university graduate with a BA in Education. In chapters 12 through 15, there are two speakers. One of the speakers is a native of Bangkok. The other speaker is a native of Pattaya. The tone drills in Chapter 1 will give you a good start. |
