The memory Technique
The memory technique which we'll use to learn
the alphabet, is best illustrated with an example.
Take a look at the thai letter below on the left,
and notice how it resembles the image to the right:
= ![](images/Chariot_ch.jpg)
Chariot
The similarity is high-lighted, by the dashed
red-line in the image.
The picture resembles a Chariot,
driving through a High Mountainous Terrain.
This image encodes all the information that you need to recall,
when looking at this Thai letter.
1. Its sound is Ch (like the initial sound
in the word "chariot"), when at the start
of a syllable
2. Its class is High, symbolised by the high
mountainous terrain in the background
Memorizing the Classes
To help you memorise the classes, we represent
the three different classes, with different backgrounds:
1. High class consonants have a mountainous
background
2. Middle class consonants have an urban
background
3. Low class consoants have a sea level,
sea-side background - simple and logical!
How it works in Practice:
1. You look at the Thai letter and automatically
think of the image.
2. The easy-to-remember title will spring to mind and tell you
the sounds.
2. The image's background will tell you the class (low, middle,
high)
Easy and remarkably effective!
About Memorisation:
The key to memorisation is to get a foot-hold
on what you are trying to remember. The thai alphabet is something
you've never seen before, and is pretty alien, so the best way
to get your head around it, is to find things that it resembles,
and create connections with what you know.
This book has done that already for you, so you
have an automatic connection for every letter, shaving months
off the learning process.
Concentrating on the letters
Concentrate on how the letter resembles the image,
and how the image's title encodes the sounds of the thai letter.
Visualise the situation in your mind until you
clearly see the resemblances. Remember that the background will
encode the consonant's class.
There are some explanatory notes to the right
of each image, which should only be necessary the first time
you look at the image.
So the next time you see the Thai character, just
think of the image that the letter resembles. The title and
background will spring to mind without effort. Then you'll automatically
know the letter's sounds, and class!
How to approach the learning process
Visualise each image in your mind, and then move
on to the next one - don't sweat or worry about it.
Don't overly tax yourself, instead just spend
20 to 30 minutes looking at some images, and then take a break
for around 10 mintues. Come back and cover up the images, and
try to remember the image, title and background, from looking
at the thai letter.
Don't worry about not memorising it perfectly
first time off - just get an idea of things.
Revision
Move on, and try some new images, or take a break
until the next day.The key to remembering though, is to repeat
your exposure to the images often, until you remember them.
An example of a revision schedule would be something
like this:
Practice and revise the images 10 minutes after the first exposure.
And then, 1 day after the first session, a couple of days after,
a week after, a month after etc.
The images are like a scaffolding that will help
you to build your memory of the letters, and will fall away
after, as your mind automatically recognises the sounds and
class of the letters.
