Advanced
Thai Reading and
Vocabulary Building
|
Speaking Thai is difficult enough but some
people believe that reading Thai is
virtually impossible for a westerner.
Of course that is not true. But what
is true is that learning to read Thai takes
quite an effort. There are quite a few
books, and online programs that can help you
to begin to read Thai (check out the
Thai Language section on this
website). But there are a lot fewer
advanced books that will help you once you
have achieved a beginner's proficiency.
So, when I needed to work at a more
advanced Thai reading level, I wrote my own
textbooks (for myself to begin with).
Below is what I came up with. It turns
out that reading is one of the best and
quickest ways to build a solid Thai
vocabulary.
If you are looking for a more advanced
Thai reader and/or would like to work on
increasing your Thai vocabulary, please feel
free to work with and download the two Thai
readers and the vocabulary list below.
From one who is working hard at learning
Thai, to another.
Lots of luck.
