Many people interested in learning the Thai language have
trouble finding a good textbook. Thai for Beginners solves that
problem.
Thai for Beginners teaches the basic four language
skills—speaking, listening (with the cassette tapes), reading and
writing. The first part of each lesson teaches vocabulary and sen-
tence structure. A vocabulary list with Thai spelling, transliteration
and definitions in English appears at the beginning of each chapter.
The transliteration system assists you with pronunciation
while you are learning the Thai alphabet. Each student must learn
to properly pronounce the tones either by listening to the tapes or
with the help of a good Thai teacher. Someone should listen to and
correct your pronunciation, especially during your early days of
learning the language.
Often, beginning students of Thai only want to learn con-
versation. Perhaps, learning the alphabet seems too difficult when
their main goal is to talk to someone using the Thai language. This
is a big mistake!
The phonetic Thai alphabet will assist even basic conversa-
tion. Using the Thai writing system develops speaking and listen-
ing skills as well as reading and writing. Wean yourself off of
transliteration as soon as possible. You won’t regret the extra effort
spent learning the Thai writing system.
The second part of each lesson teaches basic reading and
writing of the Thai language. It provides a guided step by step
introduction to the consonants, vowels, tone rules, and other fea-
tures of the language.
Written Thai uses no space between words. In this text,
however, we often separate the words with a space to help you read
the Thai script more quickly.
