You raise a good question. To a native Thai speaker, does for example, an Englishman and an American sound the same when they speak Thai?? What about a scandinavian or Frenchman? Do all foreigners sound the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do all foreigners sound the same? Hi Khun Bobby, Noochy sabaidee ka Hhmmmmm I think pretty much every Westerners I know have a similar intonation. Maybe because the way they raise their voice (e.g. at the end of the sentence) or the way they make a pause in a sentence. Probably because those languages have the same root? However I didn't hear people from other Asian countries speak this way. They usually stress on practically every word (like Thai people ) , not a particular part of the sentence like Westerners do. Just my two baht na ja Noochy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my two baht na ja Noochy HAHAHA....It's worth atleast 10, 00 baht to me krup Interesting, many other Asian languages use tones I believe, so what you say makes sense. Makes me wonder how Thai would sound without tones? Or, English with tones? Would they become different languages? hmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedTriple Posted February 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 Bobby thanks man sbsb...

thaibel Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 hi, Rich Although I had to laugh before (sounds like a monk in a Wat saying his prayers, lol), I still admire what u have done. Good job, mate. And next time, do it after 16 bottles of stella (not Heineken, don't become a second Paul Collins, 1 is enough ). PS. Not all Asian speak in tones, only SE-Asians and Chinese ppl do.

SpeedTriple Posted February 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 Eric, Thanks mate, it did take a some time to learn it. After 16 Stellas I struggle with English..

SpeedTriple Posted March 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2005 Cherry... Thanks BTW I did Grungtep precisely because it IS difficult to say I like a challenge. Mel. I bet your French is better than my Thai :wink: Mr Softie - 3 primary reasons for recording my voice 1) I truely love the sound of my own voice 2) How could anyone hear it if I don't record it 3) I am trying to learn to speak Thai while living in England, recording it and allowing Thai people to criticise it helps me to learn to speak better Thai.

bobbyboy112003 Posted March 1, 2005 Report Share Posted March 1, 2005 next time, do it after 16 bottles of stella (not Heineken, don't become a second Paul Collins, 1 is enough ). I heard my name???? Actually I like stella too - not just heineken! if anyone buys me 16 bottles of either stella or heineken I'll attempt to repeat the real name for BKK....
