Thai Conversation & Culture |
How long does it usually take to speak Thai? For most westerners the process of learning a tonal language is not so easy. If you seriously want to speak Thai you should combine learning how to read, write and speak at the same time. It will make the learning process much easier. The time you need to learn the basics is very much up to you. From experience, most students are able to have a basic conversation within 20 hours.
