    Especially little to be gained if you are delivering an english monologue which the Thai driver doesn't understand.

    If you are living in, or planning to move to Isaan, you have every reason to learn the Isaan dialect spoken in the area. As previously mentioned, if you speak "proper Thai" (with correct tones) in Northeast, Thailand, you will be understood, but when it comes to you understanding them...NOPE!

    There are good videos on YouTube like above. Also, this website may help: Women Learning Thai… and some men too ;-) » Learn Thai via Skype: Locating Teachers and Schools
