Thailand will be a great experience in itself however in order to help make easier certain day to day interactions with the locals some understanding of the Thai Language is necessary. Not only will having a basic understanding of Thai improve your vacation while here, it will bring a warm smile to the faces of any locals who see you attempting to make an effort. In Thai saying anything needs to come with the distinction of whether the speaker is a Male or a Female. For Males, saying anything needs to be followed by the word Krap (Kup), and for Females, the same rule applies but instead is followed by the word Ka (Kaw).
