New to Thai? I found this a great supplement to Thai PDQ.... - By: G. L. Nourse, 13 Dec 2008
I'd been learning to speak Thai for about four months using the Thai PDA 4xCD course from Linguaphone & a couple of online resources. My progress had begun to slow & I wasin danger of losing interest when I bought this little book. Instantly, key questions & mis-understandings that had frustrated me were answered & corrected. It was like getting a simple, straight forward second opinion on something that had seemed just too complicated.

Included are words & phrasesin ten topics for common situations, some very interesting cultural notes, grammer, plus a worthwhile English-Thai word list.

The best of it is being provided with the essential Thai you needin order to get speaking fast. It's when you start speaking the language that you really see the fun & progress.

Soin a nutshell, I recommend 'Instant Thai' as a very useful supplement to more serious study. In particular, I believe it's essential to hear Thai spoken by native speakers as the phonetic Roman is spelt differentlyin every source I've seen & cannot interpreted without it.
