  We broke our new series on learning Thai down into different learning stages. Start with the “Lower Beginner” books followed by the “Beginner” and “Upper Beginner” books. Next, progress to the “Intermediate” series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the “Conversations” series.  
  This audiobook is divided into units.While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Thai. The sample will give you a taste of what you can look forward to.  
  In Unit 1 you will hear Thai decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Thai speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language.  
  By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Thai. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Thai at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Thai, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.
