Announcement: The follow-up to this book is now released and available on Amazon, five years after this first book was published. Titled "(Another) 100 Thai words that make you sound Thai", it is part two of the two-part intermediate (spoken) Thai series. For readers who are keen on speaking natural Thai confidently, the second book is an essential resource for further learning once the reader has gone through this first book thoroughly. Further details on the dedicated Amazon product page.
Stephen Saad has spent over 15 years working, living and traveling in Thailand. He never found a book that is neither a beginner’s basic book nor a weighty academic tome but a book that explains the Thai you hear every day in Thailand. So he wrote one!
A book that is aimed at those foreigners who can already speak Thai to a basic level but struggle to form longer sentences or speak naturally using everyday Thai as they do in English. '100 Thai words that make you sound Thai' gives the learner the key connecting words, time context words, comparison words, exclamations and other words that are key to forming whole sentences and describing thoughts and situations beyond basic level. Crucially, this book delivers all of this in a non-stuffy way with plenty of tips and insight as if Steve is talking to you and sharing what he has learnt over the years, rather than giving you a course in Thai grammar.
Finally, Steve has used a totally new concept involving assigning indicator icons and a scale of 1 to 5 to words to indicate the feel of the word and therefore, the appropriate context in which it should be used. For example, many words in Thai are used more by women than men and while men using these words is not against any rule whatsoever, they can sound a little strange doing so. The 'female' indicator icon highlights these words and the rating between 1 to 5 gives some indication of how feminine the word is. No other book gives learners of Thai this type of insight into the Thai language.
- Learn the phrases that are key to expressing yourself in everyday situations; not basic nouns and verbs you already know but the other words you need to construct sentences and sound credible in Thai.
- Gain insight into words through tips and indicator icons – a totally new and unique tool to impart insight into Thai words; learn the words with 'Thai-ness' to instantly impress.
- Extensive advice on not just what to learn but how to learn Thai!

Description de la boutique
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
