I have to come back to Singapore i guess, some business will be made here.
i signed up for lessons, isn't that motivating enough?
not motivating enough leh!!
cos i no money to go for lessons
have to buy books and tape and learn myself
though usually if i travel to a certain place, i learn a bit of the language before i go
when you can speak thai fluently, i WILL go pick up another language!!!!!!!!

Next thing you tell us you hear voices
Ya my Japanese is like gone with the wind
I wanna pick up another language again but I need to speak to someone if not it's bye bye language
i guess that's the only way to preserve the language in your head. -

if u learn thai at least u know i'm here to keep it alive.
anyway if u were to really be interested in thai, you would just watch their movies, listen to their music and then have the words translated in your head. at least the rot won't be so fast. -

its pretty expensive where i signed up. if u really want it cheap you should go to the CCsOriginally posted by elindra:I love watching Thai movies maybe I should learn Thai instead for practical reasons (work)

i signed up with cambridge language, at peninsular plaza.
cost me $288
2 1/2 months, once a week. 2 1/2hrs per lesson.
purely conversational.
one of our guys signed up for it in the past, his spoken thai is the best in the entire workplace. now he's in thailand with his wife, happily working there. -
