If they do, let me know which one. I’ve just started using one called DuoCards but wanna know if there are any better before I commit to premium. Cheers

I've been interested in learning Thai for a long time because I'm interested in Thai culture and I wanna travel there someday. I heard that comprehensible input is a technique kids use to learn their native language, so I wanted to give it a try. I've also seen people say that it doesn't work and that the process is very slow. Which has been hindering me in fully devoting my time into this technique.

My question is, has this technique actually worked on anyone? when should I be expected to understand thai ? and how long does this technique take time to work ?

I wanna be as patient as possible but sometimes it is discouraging when I feel like I'm making no improvements

Looking for Thai friends who want to learn English. I speak Thai but not the best. I want to be fluent by the end of this year/beginning of next year and I think speaking with someone often would help. I’m looking for someone Thai who wouldn’t mind speaking to me regularly in Thai, no matter the English level. If you are also curious about learning English, I can help in exchange as well. Anyone interested? Comment and let’s talk

There's a lot of posts with apps your guys are making. Please post them here instead of creating a new post for each one. If people disagree with this we can allow them elsewhere. But I will pin this thread for a while regardless.

Hi Reddit,

Want to know if the sentence below is natural and correct (casual as well).

ถ้าฉันเปลี่ยนวิธีที่คุณมองตัวเองได้ - trying to say: "If I could change the way you see yourself..."

hey all! do you have any specific recommendations for good thai italki tutors? im around a2-

I heard that Thai people are much more direct than other Asian people like Japanese or Filipino even in their speech. Like it easier to be autism in Thailand than in those two countries.

Unlike British people, Thai people don't really sugarcoating and making a long sentence as that is not Thai language culture.

¿Alguien sabe algún buen sitio web para traducir del inglés al tailandés o un diccionario en línea? Estoy tratando de aprender tailandés, pero está bien difícil encontrar páginas buenas de traducción que tengan tailandés.

I made some short Thai stories for learners who want to practise reading Thai

Hi everyone!

I’ve been learning Thai for about six months now, and one thing I found surprisingly difficult was finding reading material for that awkward stage where you’ve learned the Thai script, but reading native content still feels too difficult.

I realised I was using ChatGPT a lot to create short stories I could practise with, and eventually I decided to go all-in and start making little mini graded e-books.

The stories are divided into three levels, and they’re written entirely in Thai without transliteration. What's more, my Thai partner has checked and edited all of them to make sure they are 100% accurate and native. Each one has:

• vocabulary organised by chapter
• pronunciation and English meanings for more difficult words
• short language deep-dives based on things that appear naturally in the story
• lots of everyday Thai rather than overly formal textbook language

The idea is basically to bridge the gap between learning the Thai alphabet and actually being able to read natural Thai without much effort.

I’ve recently opened a small webshop for the books. You can find the link in my profile. The series is called Start Reading Thai.

I’d also genuinely love feedback from other Thai learners — particularly on the difficulty levels and what kinds of stories/topics you’d like to see in future.
