Package: SpokenThai1.9

"Spoken Thai" is a Thai language learning software package that includes six main components and some other useful tools for the beginner and the advanced student.

With a total of over 25,000 useful words and phrases most frequently used by a foreigner in Thailand, this is the best and biggest learning tool of its kind.
This tool is designed to help English speakers, who can not read the Thai script, in learning to speak the Thai language and communicate with Thai people. It was written and designed by a foreigner with his own foreign perspective.
There are 20,000 high quality audio files divided into 129 subject categories, spoken by a native Thai woman, in the way she speaks in everyday life. When the user clicks once on any English word or sentence, it will be automatically translated into the Thai language and shown in English phonetic pronunciation using English characters.
In the audio categories the audio file, associated with the sentence or word selected, will be played too. There is a re-play option and very useful "Auto-Play" feature.
A Text-To-Speech engine (TTS), if installed, will allow you to hear the English too. Actually you can sit comfortably and let "SpokenThai" speak to you all sentences in sequence, in English and in Thai.
