Book Description
PLEASE NOTE: this version is the updated version of "Learning Thai, Your Great Adventure, ISBN: 978-1908203007" Many search online looking for free material to learn Thai with and, apart from wasted time, end up with confusing material, not knowing whether the material will actually work for them or not; and, whether they're actually wasting their time. If they do manage to finish successfully, there's rarely any idea on what to do next. Welcome to Quest. "Quick, Easy, Simple Thai" is the series we have written to help you fulfil your Quest to learn the beautiful Thai language. Embarking on such a project can be a daunting prospect, but to dispel all fears, we have broken your quest down into a series of small adventures - the starting point is "Volume I - Learning Thai, Your Great Adventure (or LTYGA)." But, what makes us different? "Quest" is the only end-to-end system which guarantees you will learn, be able to speak, and read Thai by the time you reach the end of our series. Even better is you'll enjoy yourself on the way: .".".your method really appeals to me and is FUN as well as clear. Thanks so much for all your hard work - I hope it all pays off for you and Duangta!"" Uda G, Chippenham, UK, 8th July 2013 "Quest" is designed with the absolute beginner in mind and though Thai is traditionally considered difficult to learn, - and learning Thai script ranks way, way up there with the best of the bunch - we make it so simple: ""I want to thank you for creating a system in which learning Thai is much much more natural rather than filled with 'technical jargon'..."" Emiliusz Smorczewski, Illinois, USA, 3rd July 2013 You may already know that there are 12 different transliteration systems in Thailand (transliteration is where the sounds of Thai are written in English) and if you've browsed extensively, then you'll realize different people use different systems. If your ultimate goal is to read Thai - and why wouldn't it be, we've made it so easy now - having to learn 1 transliteration system is still 1 too many. Ideally, you want to be able to read Thai script; so, why bother learning it in the first place? Well, unless you're a language genius or have huge amounts of time, then you're probably interested in learning as soon as possible; and, with Quest, you only learn 1 system. This way, you are focused, can follow exactly what we're saying and talking about and don't waste time. We also use our own color-coding system (which makes learning so much simple and easier for a beginner). As we use the same system across all our material (our books, and our pc, Mac, and iPad applications), you know you're on the fastest path to completing your quest. We give you what you need to learn, and introduce you to the Thai language, the Thai alphabet: the consonants, vowels, tone, and much more. Our full-color, 210-page book, is packed with everything you need to begin your adventure with the best start imaginable: ""I will inform you that learning Thai with the help of LTYGA and your online application has never been easier. Moreover, I must say that the resources that you have created are the best that I've found to learn the Thai script because all the necessary knowledge is in one place and these resources, I feel, are based on the student's needs to learn; to learn Thai without the hassles of jargon. LTYGA and your online application are to the point. I like that a lot."" Emiliusz Smorczewski, Illinois, USA, 7th August 2013 Don't delay, begin today! "LTYGA is the first volume in our Quest series: Quest - Quick, Easy, Simple Thai."
