Using an iPhone & iPad in Thailand Tips, App Reviews and News for the iPhone and iPad by Richard Barrow

Thai TalkBoard for iPad

Posted on January 14, 2011


Thai Talkboard for the iPad for learning Thai is certainly interesting in it's approach. Instead of categories and scrolling lists, it gives you a "talk board" where what you see is what you get. Click on any of the phrases and words to hear a native speaker. It is of course very limiting as you only get this one page. It might be nice if they upgrade with a second page. The quality of the sound is good enough, though obviously it wasn't recorded in a studio as you can often hear the neighbours! The original version had some glaring errors but they seem to have corrected these now. A second problem is that it is always a female speaker. I just hope male speakers won't copy her by saying "mai ben rai ka". The original price in iTunes is $1.99 but today it is free. So, be quick if you are interested.

    Thai Talkboard is no longer free. It has just gone back up to $1.99. Follow me on Twitter (@RichardBarrow) if you want to know whenever a good app goes for free.
