Giveaway: Reading Thai + Reading Thai Words and Sentences… This giveaway is not going how I’d planned. Apologies, but getting sick right after landing back in Thailand totally messed up my intentions. So I now need to be creative or these free codes will be lost forever. That’s right. Promotional codes have an expiration date [...]

The EIGHT winners of the Thai for Beginners iPad iPhone iPod App… When I announced this draw there were six free apps. And now there are eight. We have Benjawan Becker from Paiboon Publishing to thank for both treats (and more). Thanks Benjawan, I know there will be many happy Thai language learners after this [...]

Win Heart Talk and Sex Talk… Thanks to Kaewmala and Christopher G Moore, I’m sitting here with TWO hard copies each of their books (so four in total): Heart Talk and Sex Talk. Both are excellent. Totally. And in my reviews I share a heap of vocabulary to show you just how useful they are: [...]

I ended the post with: Ah, before I go… coming next from Chris and Benjawan is an iPhone version of the Three-Way Talking Thai Dictionary. And you can better bet that I’ll be [...]

Here we go… the third Thai language draw… Apologies for this post going late. Yesterday I showed interest when asked if I wanted to take photos of the flooding in Thailand (where else?) Well, seems the main flooding was not in Bangkok. Surprised? Me too. So even though we departed at 9am sharp, after scrambling [...]

The Thai-English English-Thai Software Dictionary draw…… Chris and Benjawan’s Thai-English English-Thai Software Dictionary is such a fabulous product to give away. And readers at WLT were gifted with two. To keep the draw manageable, I followed the simple method in Teach Yourself Thai Complete. Both of them. Amy Praphantanathorn (Expat Women in Thailand) folded numbered [...]

Announcing the second WLT free draw… Curious. Is there such a thing as a paid draw? Not sure. Anyway… after WLT’s first free draw went off ok – Complete Thai: David Smyth Updates Teach Yourself Thai – I decided that giving away free stuff will be a regular item. A good thing, because I’m sitting [...]

More free Thai learning resources… There are several ways of getting around Learning Thai the Easy Way. One is via their sidebar nav. And there is an additional way, their Free Thai Resources page. I don’t believe it gets you into everything on their site, but does make it easy to skim for free subject [...]

When I contacted him about adding it to WLT’s growing [...]

For instance, take Hugh Long of www.retire2thailand.com. Hugh was yesterday’s Successful Thai Language Learner. In the middle of our back and forth, Hugh released a triple package of free: Advanced Thai [...]
