Calendar Thai

Weekdays, relative days, and the phrases that turn them into an arrangement — the language of agreeing to meet someone.

No signup. Three modes.

Today’s Plan uses this alongside the conversation drills, because a plan you cannot state is a plan you cannot make.

Three calendar modes: decode a day, build a schedule, read an appointment card
From naming a day to making a plan.

From naming a day to making a plan

01

Decode, build, then handle a real card

Calendar Decoder plays a day and you tap it. Schedule Builder has you assemble a statement. Appointment Cards give you something to read and act on — which is where the vocabulary stops being a list and becomes usable.

Three calendar modes: hear a day and tap it, build a scheduling statement, or decode an appointment card
Recognition, production, then something to actually read.

Relative days are the hard part

The weekday names are learnable in an afternoon. "The day after tomorrow", "last Tuesday", "in three weeks" are what make arrangements possible, and they follow patterns English does not share.

Thai weekday names come from the planets, which is why they rhyme with the ones in several other languages once you notice.
