    How It Works

    When you open the app, you'll start in Free Play mode:

    1. Listen – Tap the play button on a flashcard to hear the authentic Thai pronunciation
    2. Guess the Tone – Choose from the five tone buttons: Mid, Low, Falling, High, or Rising
    3. Learn the Rule – See exactly why that tone applies based on consonant class, vowel length, and syllable ending
    4. Review Regularly – Our spaced repetition algorithm schedules reviews at optimal intervals so you remember what you learn

    We provide IPA and English transliterations for all words and phrases. So you can still read the text without knowing the Thai alphabet first.

    Why Spaced Repetition Works

    Listening to Thai tones repeatedly over time embeds them into your long-term memory. As a bonus, you'll naturally expand your Thai vocabulary along the way.

    What is International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)?

    The International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) is a standardized system of symbols used to represent every distinct sound found in human spoken language.

    If you have ever looked up a word in a dictionary and seen strange-looking symbols in brackets next to it (like /fəˈnɛtɪk/), you have seen the IPA in action. It was created in 1888 by the International Phonetic Association to provide a universal "code" for pronunciation that works across all languages.

    How Does IPA help with learning Thai?

    Thai is a tonal language, meaning the "shape" of your voice (high, low, rising, etc.) changes the meaning of a word.

    The Problem: Standard alphabets don't have a way to show pitch.

    The IPA Fix: Most Thai-IPA systems add "tone marks" to the symbols.

    For example:

    • /maː/ (Mid tone) = "Come"
    • /màː/ (Low tone) = "Shoulder"
    • /mâː/ (Falling tone) = "Crazy"
    • /máː/ (High tone) = "Horse"
    • /mǎː/ (Rising tone) = "Dog"

    We provide you with the IPA alongside the Thai Script to help you get started. Once you are more confident you can toggle it off in settings for a true test of understanding.
