Your food journey, one short lesson at a time. Each lesson is ~7 words: meet them, then type them from memory. Finish a lesson and its words move into 🔁 Review.
Words are ingredients — they go stale. Reviews resurface each one right before you'd forget it: miss it and it's back tomorrow, nail it and it returns in 1 → 3 → 7 → 14 days. A few minutes a day keeps the whole pantry fresh. Words you still know after a week+ gap count as mastered.
The blind taste test: 10 questions on the words in your pantry. Build a streak! 🔥
Tap a Thai word, then its English match. Clear the board!
Cook the Thai sentence from the tiles — mostly orders, requests and market talk you'll actually say. Watch out for the two extra tiles that don't belong!
Prices, haggling, taxi fares — numbers are survival Thai. Read (or hear) the Thai number and type the digits — 10 per round. Get one right and the next gets bigger, up to SAAEN territory.
How much Thai you actually know. Words get stronger every time you remember them in 🔁 Review: learning → known → mastered (still there after a week+ gap).

The little rules that turn menu words into full sentences. Read one, then go make the Builder prove it.
Word order = English (mostly)
Subject–verb–object, no conjugation, no plurals, no "a/the". POM CHAWWP GIN AHAAN THAI = I like eat food Thai. The big flip: descriptions come after the noun — KAAO PAT (rice fried), ROT KAN NII (car [classifier] this).TO BE — two words, not one
| BPEN เป็น | who/what you are — POM BPEN KON ANGRIT (I'm English) |
| YUU อยู่ | where you are — POM YUU TII KRUNGTHEP (I'm in Bangkok) |
Negatives — three flavours of MAI
| MAI + action verb | MAI PET (not spicy), MAI AO (don't want) |
| MAI-DAI + verb | didn't / can't — MAI-DAI BPAI (didn't go) |
| MAI-CHAI + noun | is not — MAI-CHAI KON THAI (not a Thai person) |
Wanting things — three levels
| YAAK + verb | want to do — POM YAAK GIN NII (I want to eat this) |
| AO + noun | I'll take — AO AN NII (this one, please) |
| KOR + noun | may I have (politest) — KOR KAAO PAT GAI KRAP |
Classifiers — counting words
Pattern: noun + number + classifier. ROT SONG KAN = two cars.| KON people | DTUUA animals | KAN cars |
| GAEO glasses | KUAT bottles | JAAN plates |
| CHIN pieces | LUUK whole fruits | TII food portions |
| YAANG kinds | GI-LO kilos |
LA = per
WAN LA 100 BAAT = 100 baht per day · KON LA TAU-RAI? = how much per person?Little words that soften everything
End sentences with KRAP (you) / KA (women) to be polite. NOI softens requests (KOR … NOI = just a little…). MAAK = very, NIT-NOI = a little bit, YUH = many, LAAI = many (+ classifier: LAAI KON, many people).Your practice sentences
POM YAAK GIN NII — I want to eat thisPOM YAAK DEEUM NAN — I want to drink that
