sawat dii khrap!
I’m still learning the alphabet and listening to some videos in ไทย, to get the gist of the language.
In the meantime, I’ve found some videos of this little girl, she is amazing!

ภาษาไทย: the challenge (Thai)
We always see these two things: people stating that they can learn a new language in a short period of time; and people asking whether that is possible.
I always thought it is possible to learn a language in, say, three months – which seems to be the most popular “short period” proposed by both fronts. But I have never embraced such an endeavour myself.
So, after thinking about it for some time, I’ve decided to give it a try. Yes, I will be learning a language for the next three months to see how deep I can get. Well, for this to be a serious challenge, I had to choose a language completely new to me. Or, rather, new regarding knowledge in the language. I chose ภาษาไทย (Thai) because, even if it is one of the first languages I knew about, I have never touched it. I don’t even know one single letter of its alphabet.
