Key features of our exciting new Talking Thai-English-Thai Dictionary for Android:

LISTEN TO ANY THAI WORD:  Touch any Thai word in any of our 150,000+ entries to hear a high-quality sound recording of a native speaker, not a toneless gravelly robot as found in other software. More than 18 hours of studio-recorded sound included with the software!

LOOK UP WORDS OFFLINE---NO DATA CHARGES:  Works even when you're in a taxi or a countryside street market and not connected to the internet: all entries and sounds are stored right on your Android device, and you will incur no data charges when you look up words in the app.  See our website for detailed requirements.

BIG TEXT, SENSIBLE LAYOUT:  You can make the Thai and English text as big as you want—no more reading glasses!  Simply touch with your finger to scroll through multiple, complete definitions on the screen at once with a clean layout that avoids click fatigue.

THAI BUILT-IN: The app comes with everything you need to read and type English, Thai Script and Thai Sound.  There's no need to purchase third-party keyboards or "Thai Enabler" software.  Use our custom built-in keyboards or use your favorite third-party keyboard.

CRAFTED FOR THOSE LEARNING THAI:  Unlike typical dictionaries based on low-quality, free internet data meant for Thai natives, our superb dictionary entries are hand-crafted by Paiboon Publishing with your needs in mind: if you're not familiar with the Thai alphabet, you can even look up Thai words by their sound using an easy-to-read pronunciation guide system (12 popular systems are supported). Hear somebody say "sanuk?" Type "s-a-n-u-k" to find out what it means. All Thai words in every section are written using both Thai Script and your chosen pronunciation guide system(s).  Unlike dictionaries meant for Thais, we list crucial Thai classifiers for more than 15,000 noun entries, we notate syllable stress, and we clarify subtle shades of meaning and formality using English explanations.

USEFUL VOCABULARY:  Whether you are visiting Thailand for a short while or living there, you will find most of the vocabulary used in everyday life, including basic medical, cultural, political and scientific terms. 150,000+ bold entries: more than five times as many as Paiboon Publishing's 2009 printed volume.  Plus, over and above the 150,000 figure, we now include more than 28,000 place name entries which help you to pinpoint geographical locations in Thailand.

FIND WORDS INSIDE:  Touch any Thai word to see all the other dictionary words contained inside it. This fun and innovative feature is great for learning how complex ideas are expressed in Thai, and learning new words too!

INTRODUCTION TO THAI INCLUDED:  More than just a dictionary, our software includes a comprehensive, interactive introduction to the Thai language, including a "Speaking and Understanding" section with clickable sounds, and a "Reading and Writing" section with all the consonants and vowels in multiple, real-world fonts.

LEARN REAL-WORLD THAI SCRIPT:  You've probably noticed that the Thai letters appearing on signs and menus in Thailand often look nothing like those in textbooks. Touch any Thai word to see it written in a set of real-world fonts that you are likely to see on signs, menus, documents, and even in Thai handwriting.

EXPLAIN SPELLING:  With our ground-breaking "Explain Spelling" feature, you can touch any Thai word and call up a visual explanation of its Thai Script spelling that shows you how the vowels and consonants of each syllable fit together, and how to determine each syllable's tone.  Nothing like this has ever appeared in any dictionary software on any platform.

BUY IT NOW:  Don't go another day without this indispensable tool!  Enjoy free lifetime upgrades as we add more vocabulary and more features.  Go directly to Google's Android Market to buy it now:
