I’m incredibly beat these days folks. Making sure all is intact before I fly out, getting malaria pills, paying bills, sending emails, etc., etc., etc. Any American who has left their world behind for a three week run knows the drill. I need a vacation before vacation, a vacation on vacation and a vacation after vacation. It seems I just need to be in a position where I can vacation whenever I want to vacation. Right now I just need rest and speaking of rest – this Thai tent resort doesn’t sound like a bad place to rest or vacation. A little out of my budget, but a girl can still dream.
Today’s word is a Thai word used in Thailand:
pák – rest
Learning Thai dot com is a great starting point for some basic Thai words and referrals to additional resources. For a brief history of the language, Thai alphabet, and pronunciation guide go to Omniglot. (A pretty clean and simple site with good details.) Another good source would be the Pimsleur language audio CD’s. I used these to prepare for my trip and they worked great! Before making the purchase look into your local library. There are several libraries carrying these audio CD’s and many more.
Past Thai words: hàat sai, wan sao, sawatdee khrab, dang
