Does anyone know where you can get posters of the Thai alphabet with the characters and pronunciations on in English?

Or any other visual aids that might help me learn the language?

Thanks.

Man, you just missed the Thailand Book Fair which was at Queen Sirikit Center a few weeks ago. They had TONZ of learning thai resources, and if anyplace had them it’d have been there.

With that being said, I doubt you're going to find the Thai Alphabet/Vowel posters with english pronunciation on them. The only one's I've seen here are the traditional type laminated posters of the alphabet and vowels but they are only in thai.

You could probably write the transcription with a dry erase marker if you wanted. I think unless a private language school has made up their own posters with english you're gonna be outta luck.

I got my standard posters from the third floor of Robinsons at the B2S book store. (That’s the Robinsons which is across from Times Square on Sukhumvit Road).

Most big bookstores, and of course all the government school book shops sell the traditional ones.

Good Luck

Most Thai bookstores sell posters like this for kids. Try your local Se-Ed, Dokya, or B2S branch. I bought a Thai alphabet poster for my daughter for 39 baht. Found it at the first store I looked.

I bought one about six months ago from the SE-ED bookstore in Big C Buriram with English transliteration included. Long way to travel but maybe there's a SE-ED store in BKK?

Right, the posters I've seen don't have translations, just transliteration (along the line of "ก ไก่ Kor Kai, ข ไข่ Khor Khai"). There are probably ones out there with the English words, too, but they may be a bit harder to find. Plenty of children's textbooks at any bookstore will have the English words, though.

Try this which is from Stu Jay Ray courtesy of 'Womenlearnthai'.

The second page has the consonants translations
