365 days to learn 365 Thai phrases

**chitown** · 08-10-2009, 01:19 PM

It is my goal to learn a new Thai phrase every day. I have been doing so for some time. The following posts will be basic phrases that I have learned already. I hope it helps you as well. Get your wife / gf / friend to read the Thai so you can get the correct pronunciation and the spend all day practicing that phrase.

We all know or should know the basics like Sawasdee, khob kuhn, sabai dee mai, pai nai and so forth, so I will skip those.

So let's get started!!
