Medical Spanish seems quite tough. Does it have any English spattered around? While English seems to be the international language for some professions, I’m not sure which ones they are.

When I lived in France I’d go to Spain nearly every weekend because the weather was better. And while I never did study Spanish, I could get away with a lot by adding an o to my French. I say that I got away with ‘a lot’, but I held pity for both the French and the Spanish on the receiving end of communication with me.

Thanks for the kind words. When I started researching to learn Thai, I wanted somewhere to put all my Thai language resources and a blog seemed to be the best bet. The idea expanded from there.

I’ve always wanted to learn Thai.. it’s on my list of languages to learn right behind getting a better grasp on medical Spanish and picking up some Danish.

I love your blog, you have some excellent language learning resources here that can be applied to any language if people think a little outside of the box.

The Michel Thomas company doesn’t have Thai lessons, but I do believe they are working on Japanese (lucky for Japanese learners).

I have the Michel Thomas scripts, but I’m not sure how to go about creating my own in Thai from there as his method tends to build in a different way than Thai is structured.

Thanks for stopping by :-)

Hi,

I liked this article and didn’t know of Michel Thomas but will look into this further, I am familiar with Pimsleur though.

I know a little Thai but more Japanese.

Thanks a lot!
