Progressive Thai by Rungrat Luanwarawat
- Developed from 1000's of hours of classroom instruction - Includes regular, graduated exercises - Accompanying downloadable MP3 audio files by native speakers Progressive Thai, a new language learning tool, is the product of thousands of classroom hours of instruction to foreign students of the Thai language. Comprised of sixteen progressive lessons, the beginning student will gradually develop the ability to communicate in Thai in many practical, day-to-day situations, as well as build a sound foundation upon which to progress to more advanced studies. Each lesson is explained in simple and clear terms, and is accompanied by practical dialogue, providing the student both with the tools for daily conversation and with fascinating insights into Thai culture. With explanations of grammatical points, exercises with answer keys at the end of the book, and including downloadable MP3 audio files on which each lesson is enunciated, Progressive Thai is ideal both as a classroom learning tool and for self-study. This is the most readily useful Thai language learning aid for the native English speaker that I have seen in a long time. - Kenneth R. Barnett, diplomatic corps, Bangkok. Contents: 1. Phonetics; 2.
