For people already knowing the Thai alphabet, it can still be difficult to read complete words. This app provides text accompanied by voice overlay and translations with tone markings. By practicing to read simple texts while listening to the pronunciation, so that you can hear the tone levels, you will become better at reading Thai. At the same time, you will also be learning new words. After each lesson you will be tested with a Quiz, containing a randomized word that you have just read. See what score you can achieve and keep practicing to learn all the words. The available lessons are: • มานี - Maanii - Manee
