I wish them not to understand the culture and society too much or they will leave....
i got 5,100 words.Not too bad considering i know a bit less than 4,000(based on words that i've written in my notebook).
You can do a vocab test to get a rough estimate of how many words you know, like this one:That's an excellent idea! Keep it up!
Any suggestions for us lazy people that have been negligent with that for several decades?

What's your score,guys? (no cheating please
)
I got 5,065, but I think I pretty sure that I know more than that since my flashcard database has 9,922 words and phrases. The test slights the more advanced words like วิวัฒนาการ กฎอยการศึก ธนาธิปไตย ผลิตภัณฑ์มวลรวม เจาะลึก สารระเหย และอื่นๆ
To the OP at the beginning you might get the impression that mastering the tones is the main problem for Westerners learning the language. In fact, you will be able to produce and recognize the tones fairly quickly if you have a good teacher to correct you. After that there remain many levels of difficulty to master the language such as the levels of usage such as slang, spoken, written, formal, semi-formal, literary, poetic, rachasap, etc. All languages have similar distinctions, but they are more important in Thai than in European languages. Pronoun usage is vastly more complex than in a language like English. Combining verbs in idiomatic narration is yet another skill. And so on.
So, there is a long row to hoe and for most Westerners here it isn't worth it. It can't be necessary if someone like Bill Heinecke can become a billionaire in Thailand on a vocabulary of no more than 100 words. In most cases, the limiting factor in learning languages is insufficient motivation. For those willing to put in the effort there is a reward in understanding the society and culture that is worth it.

Because this language is useless and totally unclear even for Thai who do not understand each others ?
In case you want to know i speak Thai fluently and think i wasted 3 years of my life leaning this shiiite....

Why not just contact Bangkok Personal Shopper ? They buy and ship, used them before.

Do you really need to tell them what is inside ?
Do not tell to Thai what they do not need to know, just tell themto do what you want, they are good at obeying ♡

No, it's not only "...foreign cigarette smokers..." it's anybody they can shakedown.
Every farang that smokes isn't "...stalked like prey..." you're paranoid.
He is right and you know nothing, this is the truth.

Bigc casino are s lot better and have 4 or 5 different toppins, check again.... real price also, 125 thb for real Italian pizza and not us style shiiite....
I have a combo microwave/convection oven that cooks home-made pizza perfectly. I also use it for baked potatoes and home-made bread etc.I wish i would have a oven. In Europe i did bake my own Pizza. The most delicious. Ok, it's some work to do, but actually it's quite easy.
I agree that take-away or delivered pizza always arrives too cold and that a regular microwave used to heat it up just makes it soggy.
The imported frozen Casino brand pizzas from BigC are nice at about 135B, but I only get the 3-cheese sort.

As a winter resident south of Jomtien, I would like to learn from this and widen my circle of friends and golf buddies, BUT
My experience based on seeing these guys at clubhouses or at the bars afterward really turns me off to joining the bar groups because of the drunks smoking cigarettes.
Any of these places have players walking instead of carts and not smoking?
Same feeling here...
