The messages are definitely not Thai language. The number 2 and 3 are written in Thai alphabets, but it doesn't make any sense in Thai language.

[leinadirahoj]

hmmm...doesn't make any sense in thai language?? could u help me translate it words by words

[Mei]

They are in Thai alphabet, but doesn't form any words. So, can't translate it at all.

My friends and I are soon traveling to Thailand and one of them is deathly allergic to all fish and seafood, we wanted to write it out and print that to show at restaurants to be safe.

"I am allergic to all seafood, including fish. Please do not serve me any food or sauce that was made with fish or seafood. Thank you."

It sounds kind of ridiculous but we just want to make sure to avoid having to stab him with epipens!

Thank you.

"I am allergic to all seafood, including fish. Please do not serve me any food or sauce that was made with fish or seafood. Thank you."

Male's version - ผมเป็นภูมิแพ้อาหารทะเลทุกชนิด รวมทั้งปลาทุกชนิดด้วย กรุณาอย่าเสริฟอาหารที่มีอาหารทะเลหรือปลาเป็นส่วนประกอบรวมทั้งซอสต่าง ๆ ด้วย ขอบคุณมาก

Female's version - ดิฉันเป็นภูมิแพ้อาหารทะเลทุกชนิด รวมทั้งปลาทุกชนิดด้วย กรุณาอย่าเสริฟอาหารที่มีอาหารทะเลหรือปลาเป็นส่วนประกอบรวมทั้งซอสต่าง ๆ ด้วย ขอบคุณมาก

Prologue: I don't speak Thai at all

However, I must be able to read some names so I find resources in the net, so...

I like Naree-Krajang Kunthamas a LOT. Great singer, very touching.
I found two Thai "representations" of her:

นรีกระจ่าง คันธมาศ
and
นรีกระจ่าง คันธมาส

As everybody can see, the last character is different.
I assume that it's a grammatical case.

So what's the nominative case then?

Thai doesn't have noun case.

There are four different Thai letters which correspond to "s" in English; those two final characters (ศ and ส) represent two of them. I assume one is correct and one is a misspelling, but I have no way of determining which is which.

I can't find an image anywhere either. Can you re-upload it?

Thanks so far for the info.

I am looking for someone in Thailand who can tell me about the country. I will be visiting Bangkok in feb. 2011, I would like to know more about the city before I arrive.

I am trying to learn Thai right now and yes, it is hard, actually different. I have been listening to
Thai music since 1990, when I used to watch Thai boxing (they would dub the music over the video).

So, I know the sounds, but I don't know the meanings. My favorite modern Thai singer is Tai Orathai.

In July I am having a man and his wife from Thailand to stay at my house as my guests. The man speaks English but his wife speaks no English at all.

I would like to try to speak a few words in Thai to the lady, to help her to feel welcome.

I have thought of about 20 short sentences that I think might be useful. (I am also open to suggestions of suitable polite things to say.)

I would think it a great kindness if a Thai member of Unilang would translate these sentences into Thai and record them in a computer audio file and e-mail the file to me.

Here are some facts that may affect the choice of words or the way of saying things:

We are social equals.
I am a man speaking to a woman.
We are both both middle-aged, but I am a few years older than she is.
She is quite a respected/senior member of her own family.
She is a guest in my house.
I have not met her before.

The list of sentences is below. When you record them, please identify each separate Thai sentence, either by saying the English sentence, or by saying the number (in English!). Very many thanks!

1.
Welcome to England.

2.
Welcome to my house.

3.
Good morning,

4.
I hope you slept well.

5.
Good night, sleep well!

6.
This is my wife, her name is Susan.

7.
This is a friend of mine, his name is John.

8.
This is a friend of mine, her name is Sarah.

9.
John says, “Pleased to meet you.”

10.
Sarah says, “Pleased to meet you.”

11.
This is your bedroom.

12.
This is the bathroom.

13.
Please come this way.

14.
Please wait here.

15.
Please sit.

16.
I hope you will have an enjoyable day today.

17.
I hope you have had an enjoyable day today.

18.
Please eat.

19.

20.
Goodbye.

21.
Have a safe journey home.

I am sorry to have been delayed with the promised announcement of thanks. You must have posted within a few hours of my setting off with the computer in the back of the car to have it repaired - it was overheating and smelling of burning piano keys. I have just now received it back, four days later.

ANYWAY, thank you very much, Cesare. I am most grateful for the help.

Kind regards
