Learning new language is one of my passion.It started when i went to different places and met other people that speak foreign language.I think thai language is a bit hard to understand and learn.. but i'll try..I think I should find someone who can teach me

Learning Thai would be so fun! It's such a beautiful language, but yes very hard! Some of their letters I can not even pronounce...like the ng! I hated going to the marke and trying to get a kilo of ngaw (rhambutan) because I couldn't say it right. Be prepared that are many words in Thai that are the same word but said in a different tone and mean something totally different. Like the word Khao has 5 or so meanings. There are many programs that can teach you to speak Thai. Have you ever been to Thailand? It's such an amazing place! I love it!! I want to learn the language too, but immersion in the culture is definitely the best route to go...for any language.
