Description
Whether you're on a short trip to Thailand or studying the Thai language in-depth, this is the one dictionary you can really use. 150,000+ entries, crisp clear sounds for every Thai word, look up words offline without data charges, includes both pronunciation guides (12 systems) and Thai Script with the Thai and English text as big as you want, includes a guide to speaking and writing Thai and other mind-blowing features for exploring the Thai language—nothing else even comes close!== Listen to Any Thai Word
Touch any Thai word in any of our 150,000+ entries to hear a high-quality sound recording of a native speaker, not a toneless gravelly robot as found in other software. More than 18 hours of studio-recorded sound included with the software!
== Look Up Words Offline---No Data Charges
Works even when you're in a taxi or a countryside street market and not connected to the internet. All entries and sounds are stored right on your Android device SD card: look up words and play sounds with no data charges. See our website for detailed requirements.
== Big Text and Clear, Sensible Layout
Our app lets you make the Thai and English text as big as you want—no more reading glasses! Simply touch with your finger to scroll through multiple definitions on the screen at once with a clean layout.
== A Dictionary Crafted for Those Learning Thai
Unlike typical dictionaries based on low-quality, free internet data meant for Thai natives, our superb dictionary entries are hand-crafted by Paiboon Publishing with your needs in mind: if you're not familiar with the Thai alphabet, you can even look up Thai words by their sound using an easy-to-read pronunciation guide system (12 popular systems are supported). Hear somebody say "sanuk?" Type "s-a-n-u-k" to find out what it means. All Thai words in every section are written using both Thai Script and your chosen pronunciation guide system(s).
Unlike dictionaries meant for Thais, we list crucial Thai classifiers for more than 15,000 noun entries, we notate syllable stress, and we clarify subtle shades of meaning and formality using English explanations.
== Useful Vocabulary
Whether you are visiting Thailand for a short while or living there, you will find most of the vocabulary used in everyday life, including basic medical, cultural, political and computer terms. 150,000+ entries: more than five times as many as Paiboon Publishing's 2009 printed volume.
== Find Words Inside
Touch any Thai word to see all the other dictionary words contained inside it. This fun and innovative feature is great for learning how complex ideas are expressed in Thai, and learning new words too!
== Introduction to Thai Included
More than just a dictionary or translator, our software includes a comprehensive, interactive introduction to the Thai language, including a "Speaking and Understanding" section with clickable sounds, and a "Reading and Writing" section with all the consonants and vowels in multiple, real-world fonts.
== Learn Real-World Thai Script
You've probably noticed that the Thai letters appearing on signs and menus in Thailand often look nothing like those in textbooks. Touch any Thai word to see it written in a set of real-world fonts that you are likely to see on signs, menus, documents, and even in Thai handwriting.
== Explain Spelling
With our ground-breaking "Explain Spelling" feature, you can touch any Thai word and call up a visual explanation of its vowels, consonants, and tone.
Nothing like this has ever appeared in any dictionary software on any platform.

Great job. Clear and concise. Unconfusing but with all the explanations I need. Worth the money unless you are penyless! The verification sistem is very reasonable, only asking you to connect to the net once every 15 days or more.

Exhaustive, yet simple This tool is truly worth its (admittedly high) price. If you have an android device and are learning Thai, buy this app! Definitions are succinct and true-to-life, language helps actually helpful, and the interface is dead simple. The phonetic keyboard, though cumbersome to set up, works well. I especially liked the word-in-a-word feature, which really helps deepen one's understanding of Thai, and makes it easier to remember. The app is very stable and speedy. Paiboon/Word in the Hand has a great track re

Absolute Must ***** I live in Thailand since 8 years now and this application is a must for someone who already has some Thai knowledge. The 3 sections, English, Script and Sound are amazingly helpful. I use this support every day now and I wonder how I did before? I love it!

Good so far A great start but still far from complete. 1) You need a flashcard system embedded into the dictionary. 2) Sample sentences are needed. Take a look at the 'Japan foundation' dictionary to see how far you need to go. 3)The purchase verification system is too aggressive. It is when I am stuck in the boonies that I need it most. Change the verification check to once every 60 days... Not once a day.
