Customer Reviews
Useful
These digital flash cards are pretty handy for reviewing the rather complicate Thai Alphabet since one need not carry a deck of cards around and they're free!
Here's warning though to those who, like one reviewer think it is a complete language course. It isn't. No alphabet flash card set is, nor is ever intended so. They function as a tool for learning the Alphabet and numerals, and with 44 consonants, 24 vowels and 4 tone marks, with many letters which vary very little from another, one is definitely in need of any tool that can help.
I read with varying degrees of fluency, about 23 languages so I feel I know what I'm talking about.
A couple suggestions: it would really be good if the mnemonic were spoken as it flashes and I think the pronunciation of the numerals should be animated along with the 1,2,3 etc. you already animate for ๑,๒,๓ etc. along with the recording of the number being spoken.
Quite unprofessional
I do not suggest to spend your time in looking to these cards. One can find much better resourses to learn Thai.
