Thai Baby Names

Thai, also called Siamese, is the official language of Thailand and the native language of the Thai people. Thai belongs to the Tai-Kadai language family and some Thai words are borrowed from Sanskrit, Pali and Old Khmer. Thai is also mutually intelligible with Lao (spoken in Laos). The Thai language has a complex orthography and a highly distinctive script alphabet. Thai is also considered a tonal language which means different tones used to formulate the same word give the word different meanings.
