5.0 out of 5 stars Probably the best available Thai language course., 13 Aug 2003
By A Customer
This is a much improved version of the earlier Teach Yourself Thai. The material can be used either just to learn spoken Thai, or also to learn written thai as well. I have used it as a first step towards just the spoken language, and I am very pleased with my progress. This edition reworks some of the weeker chapters and eliminates many errors. It also adds much more grammar, which is a great improvement. The most irritating aspect of the book is the romanization system: the letter "u" is used for a sound like the letter "a" in English, which takes some getting used to.
I have also looked at, or used, most of the other Thai language courses available. I have concluded that in my opinion this is the best one: it covers a fair amount of vocabulary and grammar, and the topics covered are generally quite useful (except for a dated visit to the post office). Yet it remains both stimulating and fun.
