Standard Thai has five tones - mid, low, high, rising and falling. Thai has no noun or verb inflections: a noun has a single form, with no distinction between singular and plural, while past, present and future time can be conveyed by a single verb form. Like many other South-East Asian languages, Thai has a complex pronoun system, which reflects gender, age, social status, the formality of the situation and the degree of intimacy between speakers. Much of the original Thai lexicon is monosyllabic; a high percentage of polysyllabic words are foreign borrowings, particularly from the classical Indian languages, Sanskrit and Pali. -- David Smyth, Introduction to /Thai: An Essential Grammar/ Explain how I'm to mark up this email with the <cite> element and 'cite' attribute. ~fantasaiReceived on Saturday, 29 March 2003 20:32:05 GMT
