http://rianthai.blogspot.com/2006/05/to-romanize-or-not-entry-no-1.html
My Thai language learning odyssey. Saturday, May 06, 2006. To romanize or not? Entry no. 1. One of the initial decisions that I am faced with when studying Thai is whether or not I want to dive right in and learn the script or should I just go ahead and learn everything in romanized form (that is, using the English alphabet) and worry about the characters later. Its very easy to find out any topic on net as compared to textbooks, as I found this article at this website. Τhis artiсle givеs clеaг ideа for ...

http://rianthai.blogspot.com/2006/05/just-moment-please-entry-no2.html
My Thai language learning odyssey. Sunday, May 07, 2006. Just a moment please. entry no.2. Not having a language in common with one's mother-in-law might sound like the perfect arrangement to many married men. However believe it or not, I would actually like to be able to communicate a little with my wife's mother- otherwise how is she going to know what a swell guy I am? And us being in Japan, how much nagging could she do? Wifenot here.go.Out.not. here. I suppose my pronunciation needs work. Great stor...

My Thai language learning odyssey. Sunday, May 14, 2006. Ninja learning. entry no.3. Or how I finally remembered the Thai alphabet). Finally this past week, after more than 2 months, I can finally say that I have taught myself to write the Thai alphabet (not including vowels :). Although I aimed for one character a day, there were days that I didn't get anything done, so it took a bit longer than the originally planned 44 days. And it did get a bit messy on the full alphabet pages at times. Thai language...
