    Middle class consonants in Thai Language

    Thai language has 44 letters, 32 vowels, 4 tone marks and various other symbols for pronunciation. Thai consonants are divided into three classes; Middle class, High class and Low class. Today we will talk about middle class consonants. Middle class consonants in Thai we call อักษรกลาง. There are nine letters in middle class consonants. First  is (ก)   gaw gai,   gaw is the spelling sound and gai is the name of a letter Second  is (จ)  jaw is the spelling sound and Jahn is the name of a letter Third  is  (ด)   daw dek, daw is the spelling sound and dek is the name of a letter. Fourth  is  (ฎ)   daw chah dah, daw is the spelling sound and chah dah is the name of a letter.  Fifth  is (ต)  dtaw dtow,  dtaw is the spelling sound and dtow is the name of a letter.  Sixth  is (ฏ) dtaw bpah dtahk,  dtaw is the spelling sound and bpah dtahk is the name of a letter.  In Thai language, daw chah dah and dtaw bpha dtahk  are rare letters we do not use often but we use for specific words.  Seventh  is (บ) baw bai maai, baw is the spelling sound and bai maai is the name of a letter.  Eighth  is (ป) bpaw bplah, bpaw is the spelling sound and bplah is the name of a letter.  ninht is (อ) aw aang, aw (o) is the spelling sound and can be (oo) a vowel.  Aang is the name of a letter.  This is how Thai students practice to remember middle class consonants gai(ก) jik(จ) dek(ด,ฎ) dtaai(ต,ฏ) bon(บ) bpak(ป) oong(อ) and this is how my class practice to remember gaw (ก) Jaw  (๋จ) daw (ด,ฎ)  dtaw (ต,ฏ) baw (บ) pbaw (ป) aw (อ)

    Mother's day in Thailand

    Mother’s Day is a highly special occasion celebrated across the globe for honoring mothers and their love for their children. In Thailand Mother’s Day is celebrated on , August 12th,  Her Majesty Queen Sirikit’s birthday. It’s a national holiday in Thailand. Schools in Thailand typically host a Mother’s Day ceremony. On the special day, mothers come to their child’s school and each child kneels at his or her mother’s feet, paying respect to mom for all that she has done for them. It’s very common to see mothers wiping tears from their eyes and many children doing the same in this joyous and proud moment. A traditional Mother’s Day gift in Thailand is jasmine- a flower that resembles motherhood. Called dok mali in Thai. We should thank our mothers for being the constant support and guide for what we are today. Let us make this day memorable for the love of life, the Mother. With this, I would like to take an opportunity to thank mothers all around the world  for everything she has ever done for us. Thank you for your attention. Please enjoy Thai language and cultural study.
