Reader Reviews:
The most useful book I used during my 10 visits to Thailand! (27/27 people found this helpful)
I find the layout exremely helpful and the method of transliteration (i.e. the method of writing the Thai script into understandable English script to produce pronouncable sounds) easily understandable. I have compared it to other phrasebooks available in Thai bookshops and using this as a benchmark I decided not to buy the others. I am frequently told that my Thai pronunciation is good, despite the difficulties "falangs" (Westerners) have with the all-important Thai tones. If I could improve the book in any way, for me, it would be to increase the number of Thai/English words in the dictionary section. However for most people on holiday in Thailand it is an excellent start. I use a larger dictionary written in Thai script and English to continue my learning. This book travels everywhre with me in Thailand, and returns home with me every time.
