Hi Earworm. Thanks for a very interesting series of posts. I'm in the same situation as you - a European attempting to learn Thai after some experience of European languages ( though I have to confess I haven't attempted to learn as many as you have!)
I've come across a good proportion of the resources you've mentioned, but some of them are new to me. I'm definitely going to check them out.
I really should get around to actually posting something on Steemit soon, so maybe I'll make a post about my own experience of learning Thai. Unlike, say, French or Spanish, there is no huge well of resources for learning Thai, so the more we share the better.
Hi, @explore-thailand. I agree with you, the resources are limited, however if you dig deep you will find the minimum bare to learn and master the language. I think Stuart Jay Raj's book, "Cracking Thai Fundamentals", and in general his contribution to the field made a big difference in recent years.
Hi @earworm. I took my Nursing master degree in Thailand taught in english. However... for daily activities I learned thai from classmates. I found that its not so difficult learning spoken thai but so difficult to read the written. Perhaps you will post another content about how to read Thai. Thanks.
