It's the first time since I arrived here that I have seen a non Asian person speaking Thai well enough to be conversant, with subtitles. Subtitles generally don't hang out on the street, obviously. Also there's the replies from Thai people, which is so valuable as it trains the ear. I have to say; I had more pennies drop and connections fire, watching this, after struggling to 'tune in' to the Thai language as I mentioned before. It made me realize, I need something similar, done the opposite way around for the kids I teach. After several views my Thai is more efficiently improved than I could have hoped for!!

You still have some farang accent but for the most part you can speak Thai well. The best thing is that you have a good attitude and are willing to approach and speak the language boldly. You also had a respectful demeanor so people react well to that. Well done.

[@tabidots]

If you learn a second language as an adult, you will almost invariably have an accent. Your pronunciation, prosody, and rhythm can all be excellent-as his is-and allow for unambiguous communication, but a native speaker will still be able to pick out subtleties. By that, I mean things like differences in how you shape your mouth to articulate vowels and consonants, which are so subtle that they wouldn't even be possible to transcribe via IPA. That doesn't mean his study of the language is sorely incomplete or that he isn't fluent. Sure, for 2nd language learners of English, there are accent reduction courses, but this is only because English is the most widely studied language in the world... and such courses are not even really necessary as most native speakers are fairly capable of understanding a wide range of non-native accents.

Language is the gateway to the world. The more I see videos like this the more I respect those who take the plunge. Actually others will probably think he's showing off. But I don't think that's the case here. It shows respect and if you get good enough at it. It will definitely open some doors that otherwise would be slammed shut. Totally respect this guy and it helps encourage others to continue studying. No to mention there have been studies found those who engage in foreign languages. Have a tendency to ward off diseases like Alzheimer's. Keeping the mind active is definitely not a bad thing here & furthermore it has its perks. Definitely wouldn't mind being in this guy's position for a day, just saying. :)

I've been in Thailand for 7 months, as an exchange student. Currently here until June, but I still can't speak much Thai at all. I wish I could learn it, but it is pretty hard in my opinion, at least with the different tones, and also reading and writing is quite hard too. I'm really amazed at how well you can speak Thai after 9 months.

I lived in Thailand for 5 years, my Thai is about as good as his is in 9 months (and I get a lot of compliments on my Thai even at 1/7 of his learning speed haha). Language is hard but made easier to learn by the fact that Thai people are so easy to talk to and helpful if you really want to learn. It's also hilarious fun to joke around in Thai, I think the langauge just lends itself to a kind of silly, friendly style of humour which I love.

My biggest advice is to just watch lakorn (Thai TV drama shoe aka teleserye), listen to Thai music, and try to get to know Thai people, and speak.
