Read Write Speak Thai

When learning Thai coming from a western language, one of the first difficulty are the tones. Thai is a tonal language and it has 5 tones which are "Mid", "Low", "Falling", "High" and "Rising".

If you are in restaurant and order for rice ( ข้าว - khaao falling tone) but instead say White (ขาว - Khaao rising tone) or News (ข่าว - Khaao Low tone), you might not be understood.

That's why, at the beginning of your learning process of Thai language, it's important to do an effort on saying words correctly.

What a better way than learning to read Thai which give you all that information already! The rules are overwhelming at the beginning and that's where this app helps you by using colour to build an easy way to learn, remember, and practice your Thai reading skill perfectly.

The app could be used by kid without any problems as we use comprehensive image and no offensive text.
