Nonthaburi under water: How we experience the Thai flood.

admin — Fri, 21 Oct 2011 09:41:00 +0000

If you want to help please consider donating to the SET Foundation. Peter has built up a fantastic foundation that helps Thai children from poor families to send their kids to school. Their office got completely flooded and they can need any support possible right now.

We went out this morning around 7 o clock and saw many people walking south, away from the massive floods coming down from the north. These pictures are from the Bang Bua Thong and Bang Yai area.

If you are in Bangkok and want to help you can buy food from one of the supermarkets downtown and bring it to one of the refugee shelters in the outskirts of the city. Information about the situation and evacuation centers can be found here. They need pretty much everything. Food & water especially but also boats can help. Many people are stranded in their homes.

How to learn the Thai language with us

Chances are you love Thailand as much as we do and you go there for a holiday from time to time, or even plan to move to Thailand! The land of smiles has a lot to offer and we want to make your stay even better. In our “Holiday Thai” lessons you learn Thai language phrases that will help you to get around, get what you want and simply get more out of your time in Thailand!

Speaking the Thai language is not as hard as you might think. To learn with our video and audio Thai lessons all you need is your computer and an Internet connection to download our lessons. If you want to you can also transfer the lessons to your mobile phone and learn with them on the go. Up to you!

All Thai language lessons come in three different formats, as audio (mp3), video (mp4) and text files (pdf). That enables you to learn with all your senses and gives you the freedom to learn when and wherever you want to.

Different Formats and Resolutions

The audio files are mp3 files and all videos are encoded as mp4 files (h264), a very common file format that works on PCs, Apple Computers, iPods / iPhones and pretty much all modern media players and cell phones.

We have the following video resolutions for each lesson:

HD: 800px x 480px (works well on newer cell phones and media players with higher resolution displays)
SD: 480px x 360px (same format that we used in our other courses)
SDw: 480px x 320px (recommended for iPhone 3gs, earlier iPhones and other wide screen phones and devices)

You can download our video resolution sample package to test what resolution you like.

You can download all our lessons directly from the website. We have a lessons overview of the holiday Thai lessons below, if you are serious about learning Thai make sure you check out Premium Course.

What is a podcast?

A podcast makes your life easier. You can use a podcast receiver to get all lessons delivered to your computer with the click of a mouse. It’s pretty easy and convenient but in the end up to you if you want to subscribe to our website with a Podcast receiver. If you want to here is a little tutorial how:

1. You download iTunes or Juice which are both podcast receiver.
2. Install and launch the program.
3. Copy our RSS feed to your podcast receiver.

Holiday Thai Lesson 9: Getting a Thai Massage

admin — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 19:02:18 +0000

Getting a Thai massage is one of the lovely things that make being in Thailand a lot of fun. We highly recommend that you try all the different sorts of massages whenever you stay in Thailand. If a traditional Thai massage is too hard for you try an oil massage or just tell the massage woman to be a bit softer with you. You learn some useful Thai language phrases about massages in this lesson. Have fun!

New Website Design

admin — Wed, 12 May 2010 13:12:50 +0000

Welcome to the new site of Learn Thai Podcast!

Even though Jay has been pretty sick in the last couple of days we finally have launched our new website design! We have a lot of new and interesting stuff coming up for our Premium Course and also more free lessons.

We are still adding some things to the site, so don’t be surprised if things look different in a few days!

Our old lessons can be found in our Thai lesson archive. We have new public lessons and cycles coming up in the next days!

Feel free to connect with us on Facebook or Twitter to stay up to date and get special promotions.

Thank you!
Jo (that’s the Thai female speaker here!)
