You might want to try doing a search for Thai fruit and veg first as these are likely to be the ones that the students talk about (in Thai) that you may not know. A google came up with this for starters:

http://www.yummytaste.com/ingeneral/fruits.htm

Also i remember a while back someone starting a post in the Thai Language forum on the same subject which went on forever so that might be worth a look as well.

It's my guess that any complete list would be far too vast to be of any use with any Thai class your likely to encounter. You could spend about half an hour trying to explain to them that lemons are really yellow and all you can buy in Thailand are limes.

On and on it goes:

Cheers for the info.

Yes, I tried to explain to my wife the lemon lime story. Gave up in the end. Even should her in a shop the difference.

Just a bit of a materiel collector. Like all countries and capitals etc. Just handy to have. Thats all.

Thanx again.

True it would be handy let me know if you find a list or anything similar like your countries and capitals thing.

It's amazing the things they expect you to know because you're an English teacher.

Happy to send you Country list if you want and if I find anything else like that. I'll let ya know.

and here it is.

list of vegetables too.

that was snow leopard with the lists in language

and what happens when they show u 10 different kinds of squash and all u know is zucchini yellow sqash and big orange pumkins?

or their 5 different types of basil with the different names that we just call basil?

i've tried, god how i've tried, to do lists for me for all the things edible but to no avail... culture differences in taste, thought, and identification plus botanical id's drove me crazy.....

like: tomatoes are really a fruit as are cucumbers (which every thai knows because it is 'teng' like 'melon'... etc.
