  • Close to great but tones wrong

    The main problems with this app are:

    1. Incorrect tone marks, this has caused me to learn incorrectly and its hard to undo! Really big problem, i think its spoken correctly but the written tone mark is wrong in many cases, unless I'm somehow understanding wrong??

    2. Does not tell you the difference in female and male speaker, so some phrases for beginner are wrong.

    3. Does not tell you the formal and informal, so in some cases you learn words or phrases that no-one says in general conversation (unless they are a newscaster or doing a business presentation)

    The tone thing is the biggest problem, I've started to try to ignore them, listen and learn and double check with other sources if the tone marks are correct.

  • Very functional and easy to use.

    I am loving working with this app to brush up on my Thai because I haven’t used Thai language for 15 years. I like the way you can have the app running and practice your words while you are busy doing some other task like driving or cooking dinner. I also like the way you can practice speaking Thai language as well as switching it to practice recognition.
    There most difficult part of Thai language is getting the tones right and is the option to have the tonal symbols displayed on roman spelling of the Thai words but it would be really good to have some information explaining exactly what these symbols refer to. Ie which one is rising, falling, high, mid, low etc.

  • Good

    Give you good basic thia skills, premium is a little expensive, for more words.
  • Perfect for what I need

    I’m very happy with this app. I’m an absolute beginner, just trying to do what I can. I like the way it’s set up with daily word packs.

    The active words section lets me replay what I’ve learned. There’s a lot of features for repetition to read or just listen. Also nice to record myself and compare. Very easy to use. Good price.

  • A very promising App

    I have been using this app for a couple of years now, the only thing I have against the app, is the lack of alt tags on the buttons. I am blind, therefore have to rely on VoiceOver to read the button labels. It would be great if the developers would consider making the app more accessible. Stupotuk
  • Love Thai Version

    The different modes of learning is perfect for me. I want to learn the words and the spelling. The options make this easier.
  • The Real Deal

    If the mark of a good app is the amount of times you use it successfully, then this NEMO app deserves its five stars as it's always by my side from morning to evening. I use it at least 20 times each day - and have done so for about 2 years. The App is well designed with many options and customisations. It has a superb Search dictionary, an automatic advance feature that means you can learn your customised daily list of Thai words and phrases while going about your other activities and having it play in the background. This is a killer advantage as language acquisition is done by repetition. The only small complaint is a navigation issue where you have to go from top of the screen to the bottom ‘Words of the Day’ then up to the top again to return to home; plus the ‘Player’ button should not be @ the end of the word list rather at the beginning.
