Their {questions arise because they want to express something in the same way that they do in their native language, or because they want to understand words or phrases they have heard on television or from their Thai friends. Also, they eannot find ‘what they want to say in textbooks or dictionaries. The idea for this book series came to me after two different students asked me the same question: "Benjawan, how do I say 'so what’ in Thai?” 1 gathered most of the words and expressions in this series from talking and listening to people. Others come from Tha movies and newspapers. In compiling them, | emphasized those expressions that are the most commonly used today. To do a more complete list, I would have to write several more books! This language series will make learning Thai more fun. You an use the phrases from each book right way, and before to0 Jong your Thai friends will be saying, "pout miian kon tai loi" -- you're speaking like a Thai! Speak Like A Thai is not meant to be a complete language course - it doesn't address grammar or writing, To re sentence structure, writing, vocabulary building and gram- mar, please use a basie textbook such as Thai for Beginners.1 would also like to suggest that you use the books Thai for Travelers for more basic phrases in different situations and Improving Your Thai Pronunciation to help you master the art of pronunciation. It will be quite impressive to your Thai fiends when you ean say the expressions in this book with perfect (or almost perfect) Thai sounds Listen to the CD over and over until you memorize the phras- es and feel comfortable using them. Use these phrases with your Thai friends as often as you can. You will later be able to create your own phrases and expand your sentences 10 ‘express yourself, Please keep in mind that no book can teach you how to speak Thai. You have to practice, practice, practice and seize all the ‘opportunities you can find to express yourself in this beauti~ ful language You will be pleased with your improvement and have fun speaking like a That Enjoy the program! chook dit nd ka, Tunves About the Book There were many titles 1 was thinking of for this book: Living Thai, Colloquial Thai, Real Spoken Thai, Thai Tougue, Idiomatic Thai and Thai Lingo. 1 finally chose “Speak Like A Thai” which is probably the most suitable one for this book, ‘The 500 key words and phrases in the first volume are care- fully chosen and not listed in any particular order. | gathered them from many sources where I heard and saw them ran- domly spoken or written. This is how you will be exposed to these expressions in real situations, The first volume is a collection of basic and common expres sions. The second volume contains Thai slang and collogui- alisms. And the third volume is composed of often used Thai proverbs and sayings. If you are serious about learning Thai, you should have all of them. I plan to have more volumes later on for more common expressions and ending particles. Beginner students can just memorize the phrases and use them without knowing the sentence structures. You will still enjoy using the material For more advanced learners, you ean use this program to expand your vocabulary. Since you know more sentence structure and words, you can create more complicated and. longer sentences tha the key words or phrases listed here You will see a dramatic improvement in your spoken Thai language For all students, | emphasize the importance of tion. In order to use these expressions more efficiently, you have to know how to pronounce them perfectly. Some expressions are short and if you don’t get the tones right, ‘our Thai friend will not understand what you are trying 16 ‘say.[try to make the translation as close to the Thai m possible. There is also a literal translation for some phi for your referral. There is also a brief comment below some of them to give you a better understanding and to help you ‘expand the usagé of the key words and phrases. After practicing with Thai people and being in Thailand for awhile, you will be able to benefit from this program much faster. We would like to improve this program for Thai learners. Please send your suggestions and any words or phrases that ‘you would like to see explained in the next volumes, ‘The email address is speaklikeathai@gmail.com. Using the Phrases ‘There are 500 entries in this volume, You may use some phrases in more than one situation. After you are familiar with the program, you will be able to find the phrases faster ‘once you know where they are located in the book. You can use the phrases in the program by saying them, showing the written Thai or playing the audio to the person, you are communicating with In this program, most sentences are designed for both male and female speakers. Some are only correct for either male or female. In this case, you will have to change the pronoun of the speaker to make it appropriate. You can add the word pom for male speakers and chain for female speakers or other pronouns in some phrases. For example: You can add pom or chin in front of the phrase gaoe maa on simssieu, (To be born poor.) Ie will be pom gaat maa jon. fine chan gaot maa jon. susiaien ‘mat jon, sv wiaaniau ‘You can also add ending particles to add more spice to some sentences. Please see how to use particles in Thai for Intermediate Learne For example: “Wait a second.” 90 diao. sou 99 diao ni roo diao na ki 150 diao nd krdp. 150 diao nd jd. svi Ending particles can allow you to express yourselves in many different ways, Please be careful, Some sentences can’t be used with particles. Make sure that you use appro- priate ending particles, Pronouns are omitted in some phrases from the context which one the phrast 0 you have to guess is Feferring to. For example: chaa-jai dai séoVsVi can be translated as “I ean trust himvher'them” or “You ean trust me/hinvher/them.”Politeness We suggest that you use the ending particle krsp for male speakers and 2 Tor female speakers when you want to be polite. Your speech may seem rude and abrupt without a lib- eral sprinkling ofthese polite particles. You don't have to use them in every sentence because it will sound comical However, we suggest that you use krsip or kd when you ask a question ‘The polite ending particle for men Arp always has the sam tone which is the high tone. Many Thai speakers drop the '” in kreip and you will hear Thai men say Azip (like the word ‘cup’ in English) instead of Arp. ‘There are two tones for the particle It changes tones from falling tone 42 to high tone ka used when asking a question (and when used after some other particles) and ka is used when making a statement. For example: Woman A: kéo-jai mai kil. (Do you understand?) Woman B: kao-jai ka. (Yes, I understand.) In normal conversation, Thai people don’t usually use the word “please” (gaerii-naa or bproot). That is often used in \writing or official announcements. To make a polite state- ment, Thai people use polite ending particles like Ait, krip, ind ki nd krlp, ec; oF words like chdai ot k3 plus polite ending particles. i pom diiai né kriip. Please help me. iam ndi ka. Please give me some water, Concerti te Tal anne Characteristics of the Thai anguage Characteristics of the Thai language that are different from English include: There are no variant or plural forms for adjectives and nouns. Adjectives follow the noun. In Thai we say, ‘house white’ instead of “white house There are no verb conjugations. We understand tens- es from the context or from adverbs of time. ‘There are no articles (a, an, the) ‘There is no verb 'to be! with adj tiful’ would be “She beautiful.” There are many ending particles that state politeness, social status, gender of the speakers, and respect or suggest a request ora.command. For example, ka, krsp, nd, si ‘Thai usually omits the subject of a sentence when it is understood from the context ‘Thai is a tonal language. It is often hard for a Thai listener to understand you when you don't get the tone cor- rectly es. 'She is beau Thai has its own writing system and is almost all phonetic (with a few exceptions).Guide to Pronunciation Because Thai is a tonal language, its pronunciation presents new challenges for English speakers. If the tone is \wrong, you will not be easily understood even if everything else is correct. Thai uses five tones. For example, to pro- ounce a rising tone your voice starts at a low pitch and goes up (much like asking a question in English). The phonetic transliteration in this text book uses tone marks over the vow= cls to show the tone for each word. Note that the tone marks used for translit are different from those used in Thai script. ‘Tone Marks ( Transliteration) Tone Tone symbol Example mid None maa low . maa fal maa high rising Vowels Most Thai vowels have two versions, short and long, Short vowels are clipped and cut offat the end. Long ones are drawn out. This book shows short vowels with a single letter and long vowels with double letters (‘a° for short; “aa” for long). “The ‘w’ has no comparable sound in English.
