June 5, 201412 yr I can use some help, particularly legal language translation such as warrants, bail, etc. Basic LEO words as well, q&a. Anyone have some? Headquarters in Bangkok issued a booklet with loads and loads of vocabulary applicable to police officer's duties. I've the booklet at home. I'll make a scan of the front page later today and post it on here.

June 6, 201412 yr Somtamniication post # 6. Got kids to feed, so I have to do what I have to do, even if it is teaching English to bibs. Kids and a wife give us the one thing money cannot buy. ''POVERTY.''
June 7, 201412 yr Author Thank you, Siampolee. Wise words, FOR ANOTHER TOPIC. Contents of that book would be nice.
June 7, 201412 yr Ted, sorry I was out of town for a few days. I have given lessons to the police many years ago, but to be honest, their level of English was so basic, we never got anywhere near learning legal phrases..... Sorry I can't help. Simon

June 10, 201412 yr I have a pdf file that would be helpful, but I can't attach it. It's only 22Mb. If you have any ideas I would be happy to send it to you
June 10, 201412 yr Taught the tourist police for quite a while, but then my hard drive died and went to Nirvana, with all the stuff I had made for them, including Power Points. Some of the Farang TPV bell ends could do with English lessons, especially that pleb in Pattaya who was on Bangkok Brits a few weeks.
June 11, 201412 yr I have a pdf file that would be helpful, but I can't attach it. It's only 22Mb. If you have any ideas I would be happy to send it to you The PDF is about teaching the police English, not about Thai translations of police vocabulary...sorry for any confusion this may have caused
