Learning the Names of Thai Fruits at ITS4Thai

Posted by Stuart at 05:18 PM on August 16, 2007

Have you ever wanted to know the Thai names for various fruits from this part of the world? Well now you can learn them, as we have finally released our first free Thai Language lesson to the world. The subject is "Fruits and Vegetables in Thailand".

There are four parts to this lesson:

1) A "Lesson" page that describes the lesson and gives you the entire word list for the lesson

2) A "Word Review" page that allows you to click through the Thai words so that you can study them individually. Each word has a picture and a sound file, to help you learn both the meaning and the pronunciation of the Thai word.

3) A "Word Practice" page that gives you a multiple-choice exercise. Can you match the picture with the correct Thai word?

4) A "Listening Practice" page. Instead of a picture, this will play sound files for you. Are you able to recognize the Thai word when it is spoken?

So why don't you head on over to the Fruits and Vegetables in Thailand lesson page at ITS4Thai and give it a try? I'd love to hear what you think about it.

(And of course, there is much, much more to come!)

Cute, but how do you plan on making money from this?

Great question, bob@bob.com. We are currently creating a course that will be offered online for a small fee. But in the meantime, we wanted to get some free trial lessons out in the public eye so that we could gather some feedback and make sure we are on the right path. (And it looks like we are doing well.... so far, so good!)

Nice to see the website is doing well! I like the lesson, good for remembering words. I'm looking forward to seeing lessons for practising Thai grammar too.

I will send the URL to my foreign friends who are learning Thai. They will sure like it too. I'll let you know.

My girlfriend is one of your student at BUIC few years ago and she showed me your website. For the first time, I had a blast learning Thai!
Thanks!
