Daily Thai vs AksonThai

Daily Thai helps expats in Thailand build real vocabulary one swipe at a time. Your deck, your pace. Every card shows a word four ways: Thai script, romanization, tone (with a contour you can see), and native-style audio. Swipe right when you've got it, left to see it again soon. Words come back on a spaced schedule until they stick — and once you truly know one, a single tap retires it for good. When you'd rather be tested than trust your own judgement, switch to Quiz. Same card, English hidden, four options to choose from. Get it right and the word advances exactly as a swipe would — and every answer is recorded, so the app can show you which words you actually know and which ones you only think you do. WHAT'S INSIDE • 1,755 words chosen for daily life in Thailand — food and ordering, transport, shopping, numbers and time, people, home, work, health, and more • Two ways to study, one tap apart: Learn (swipe, meaning visible) and Quiz (meaning hidden, four-option multiple choice) • Focus mode: point either mode at one topic when you need it (ordering dinner tonight, doctor tomorrow) • Tones made visible: every word carries its tone name and shape • Audio on every word and example sentence • Progress that's honest: session history, your got-it rate and quiz accuracy over time, your weakest words, and per-topic coverage so you can see what you've been avoiding • A lock-screen widget that keeps a word in front of you all day • Light and dark mode, streaks, daily reminder — no account, no sign-up Built for people who live here: the vocabulary is drawn from real textbook dialogues and the words Thais actually use, not phrasebook filler. Daily Thai is free.

Learn the Thai alphabet the way it's written — one stroke at a time. AksonThai — learn Thai by writing, not by tapping. Most apps make you tap and match. You feel like you're learning — until you try to actually write อักษรไทย and your hand has no idea where to start. Thai script is beautiful and logical, but it only truly sticks when you form the letters yourself. AksonThai is built around handwriting. You trace every consonant, vowel, tone mark and word with your finger, stroke by stroke, on a generous practice canvas with elegant guides. That shift — from passive recognition to active writing — is what turns short-term memory into permanent knowledge. Why AksonThai is different Handwriting-first, always. The canvas isn't a feature — it's the whole point. Every card is a chance to actually write the letter or word. The full writing system, structured. All 44 consonants (by class: mid, high, low), the vowels, tone marks and numerals — then 1,500 of the most useful Thai words across five books, from Foundation to Mastery. Switch any time; progress is tracked separately in each. My Akson — your own list. Drop in any Thai characters or words you want to focus on and practise them like any other deck. Find anything three ways. Type Thai, type English, type romanization — or, when you don't even know the letter, just draw it (or part of it) and let the app find it. Acrophonic memory aids. Each consonant ships with its traditional acrophonic word and a short, hand-curated mnemonic — so ก isn't a random shape, it's a story you remember. Built-in progress, streaks and milestones. See what you've mastered, what needs review, and keep your daily writing streak alive. Works offline. Handwriting recognition runs entirely on your device — drawing, checking, browsing, everything works with no connection. Made to live with. Paper-and-ink aesthetic, beautiful Thai typography, light and dark themes. Your progress, your data. Everything lives on your device.

Anyone who has closed a flashcard app still unable to write a single Thai letter from memory. Start writing today. The first stroke is the hardest — after that, it's surprisingly addictive. อักษรไทย — your Thai letters, in your own hand.
