Useful Thai Phrases: Food, Night Markets & Massage

My brother told me that the sentence structure in Thai is quite similar to Chinese, so I shouldn’t have a hard time picking up Thai.

Boy, was he wrong!

In the 2 weeks that I’ve been here, I’ve only used the two phrases that most people know when learning a new language – Hello and Thank you.

I thought about taking language classes but since I only wanted to learn a few phrases here and there, I enlisted the help of my new local Thai friend – Mew!

I met her at my gym – she works the front desk 🙂 I asked her to teach me the useful phrases so I can survive in the next few months. 

I’ll keep adding to the list below and will highlight the ones I use often in red!
