Writing a CV in Thai can be a very useful thing to do if you consider working in Thailand. It can impress Thai employers in case knowledge of Thai is required for the job. In this post, I present some useful vocabulary and expressions that you can use to write your CV in Thai.

If your vocabulary level is decent, there is a mnemonic (นีโมนิค nee1moo1nik4) trick to help you remember which consonant belongs to which class. In the following sentences, the first consonant of each word is one of that class.

We will finish with the hardest consonant class – the Low class consonants (LCC). More than half of all Thai consonants are of the low class. If you had already memorized the High and Mid classes, you would automatically know that any other consonant is of the low class.

As mentioned in the previous two posts, when considering the spelling of a word in Thai, the consonant class influences the tone of the word. There are three consonant classes: low, mid, and high. We will continue with the Mid class consonants (MCC) because I believe it is the next easiest of the three.

As mentioned in the previous post, when considering the spelling of a word in Thai, the consonant class influences the tone of the word. There are three consonant classes: low, mid, and high. We will start with the High class consonants (HCC) first because I believe it is the easiest of the three.

For the next several posts, I will be going over how to identify the tone of a word based on the spelling of the word.

In the previous blog post I talked about Thai plant vocabulary and how to use these words in sentences. This post will help give you practice with those words, as well as reading and spelling them.
