<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV>Dear SEALANG members.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I hereby present my new book:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT color=#ff0033>THAI - ISAN - LAO PHRASEBOOK </FONT></STRONG>with sound tracks in MP3.<BR>ISBN 974-7534-88-6</DIV>
<DIV>See samples at <A href="http://www.thai-isan-lao.com">www.thai-isan-lao.com</A> - or <A href="http://www.geocities.com/lao_thai2000">www.geocities.com/lao_thai2000</A></DIV>
<DIV>Texts, wordlists, grammar, writing manuals in Thai, Isan, and Lao languages.<BR>The only book of its kind!</DIV>
<DIV>NOW available at White Lotus, and at major bookstores in Bangkok and Chiang Mai.</DIV>
<DIV>It is my hope, that this book and the associated CD-ROM will benefit several target-groups:</DIV>
<DIV>1. The ordinary tourist and the traveller, who want to get around a little easier, will benefit by listening to the sound track while reading the conversation chapters. The first chapter contains the sentences in everyday use by most locals, giving the traveller a good opportunity to practise: "Where do you come from?", "how old are you?", "marital status", etc. Other chapters deal with practical things such as getting around, going shopping, bank, post office, etc.<BR>2. The student, who might know most of the vocabulary already, but wants to learn to read and write and determine tones.<BR>3. The advanced student, who already knows Thai and wants to know Isan or Lao.<BR>4. The people of Isan, who want to read and write Lao. And the people of Lao, who want to read and write Thai.</DIV>
<DIV> The consistent use of IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) should make it easier for the readers of different nationalities to exchange language knowledge by having to refer to one phonetic system only.</DIV>
