@@itshry Actually, if you speak or are at least familiar with Hokkien and its sibling languages like Minnan & Teochew, Thai and Lao do sound a lot like them especially Lao. Vietnamese sounds closer to Cantonese/Hakka IMO. And although more than half of Vietnamese vocabulary is borrowed/has Chinese roots, interestingly one (at least for me personally) can spot out Chinese-origin words in Thai/Lao more easily without even knowing the language. I remember guessing the meaning of some words like Bpa (mouth), song (to send), hong (room), si (Colour) etc correctly when I started watching Thai series. Although I didn't understand the whole sentences, I could slightly grasp what's being said due to those familiar words which happen to sound really close to their Chinese counterparts.

Thai buyang very close to Austronesian in number, while other thai/kra-Dai number supplanted by sino-Tibetan language same with korea like numbers 3/sam, and others 4,5. buyang word like 3/tu(in old malay, Javanese n most Austronesian, tell, tulu=3), 4/em(PA)t, 5/li(ma) AND 6/E(NAM), is Austronesian very close to champa, Malay/Indonesian and Tagalog/Filipino. lima/limo/lime/limang/ma is word for 5 in Malayo-Polynesia/Austronesian. Thai/Kra-Dai and Austronesian are family language origin in Yunnan n Taiwan. Word like eyes/Mata or ta in Thai, and tai/matai/mati (Filipino=Matay/matai; Malay=Mati), is example of few similarity

It is a tonal and analytic language, similar to other Kra-Dai languages as well as to Chinese and Vietnamese.[4] Spoken Lao is mutually intelligible with Thai and Isan, fellow Southwestern Tai languages, to such a degree that their speakers are able to effectively communicate with one another speaking their respective languages. These languages are written with slightly different scripts but are linguistically similar and effectively form a dialect continuum.[5] Although there is no official standard, the Vientiane dialect became the de facto standard language in Lao PDR, and the Khonkaen dialect became the de facto standard language in Isan in the second half of the 20th century.

I am a Thai who can understand Lao more than 90% and can read Lao script a little bit. The Thai and Lao languages have a high degree of mutual intelligibility by speaking.

How to count number says a lot about the relationships between languages / cultures. Even though the writing systems are completely different, saying ‘33’ or “20” in Thai is practically the same as in Cantonese or Korean. Language is surely a fascinating subject.

Oh yeah keep this going, Andy! Your channel is such an international treasure and a living museum for all of the languages around the world.

The reason why? Lao(Ai Lao) speak same language in Thailand. They are same roots family. Lao peoples have many dialect, sound and different words. If you go to Laos south north west East they are speaking different dialect and sound and use different words. But we are all Lao peoples As the Southwestern Tai-speaking peoples diverged, following paths down waterways, their dialects began to diverge into the various languages today, such as the Lao-Phuthai languages that developed along the Mekong River and includes Lao and its Isan sub-variety and the Chiang Saen languages which includes the Central Thai dialect that is the basis of Standard Thai. Despite their close relationship, there were several phonological divergences that drifted the languages apart with time such as the following examples:[10][11][12] PSWT *ml > Lao /m/, > Thai /l/ *mlɯn, 'slippery' > muen (ມື່ນ mun, /mɯ̄ːn/), > luen (ลื่น, /lɯ̂ːn/) PSWT *r (initial) > Lao /h/, > Thai /r/ *raːk, 'to vomit' > hak (ຮາກ, /hȃːk/), > rak (ราก, /râːk/) PSWT *ɲ > Lao /ɲ/, > Thai /j/ *ɲuŋ, 'mosquito' > nyung (ຍູງ, /ɲúːŋ/), > yung (ยุง, /jūŋ/) Similar influences and proximity allowed for both languages to converge in many aspects as well. Thai and Lao, although separated, passively influenced each other through centuries of proximity. For instance, the Proto-Southwestern Tai *mlɛːŋ has produced the expected Lao /m/ outcome maeng (ແມງ mèng, /mɛ́ːŋ/) and the expected Thai /l/ outcome laeng (แลง /lɛ̄ːŋ/), although this is only used in Royal Thai or restricted academic usage, with the common form malaeng (แมลง /máʔ lɛ̄ːŋ/), actually an archaic variant. In slang and relaxed speech, Thai also has maeng (แมง /mɛ̄ːŋ/), likely due to influence of Lao.[10] Thai and Lao also share similar sources of loan words. Aside from many of the deeply embedded Sinitic loan words adopted at various points in the evolution of Southwestern Tai at the periphery of Chinese influence, the Tais in Southeast Asia encountered the Khmer. Khmer loan words dominate all areas and registers of both languages and many are shared between them. Khmer loan words include body parts, urban living, tools, administration and local plants. The Thai, and likely the Lao, were able to make Khmer-style coinages that were later exported back to Khmer.[13] The heavy imprint of Khmer is shown in the genetics of Tai speakers, with samples from Thai and Isan people of Lao descent showing proof of both the Tai migration but also intermarriage and assimilation of local populations. Scholars such as Khanittanan propose that the deep genetic and linguistic impact of the autochthonous Khmer and their language indicates that the earliest days of Ayutthaya had a largely bilingual population.[14] Although evidence and research in Lao is lacking, major Lao cities were known to have been built atop existing Khmer settlements, suggesting assimilation of the locals. Isan and Lao commonly use a Khmer loan not found in Thai, khanong (ຂະໜົງ/ຂນົງ khanông, /kʰáʔ nŏŋ/), 'doorframe', from Khmer khnâng (ខ្នង, /knɑːŋ/), which means 'building', 'foundation' or 'dorsal ridge'.[13][15] Indic languages also pushed Thai and Lao closer together, particularly Sanskrit and Pali loan words that they share. Many Sanskrit words were adopted via the Khmer language, particularly concerning Indian concepts of astrology, astronomy, ritual, science, kingship, art, music, dance and mythology. New words were historically coined from Sanskrit roots just as European languages, including English, share Greek and Latin roots used for these purposes, such as 'telephone' from Greek roots τῆλε tēle, 'distant' and φωνή phōnē which was introduced in Thai as thorasap (โทรศัพท์, /tʰōː ráʔ sàp/) and spread to Isan as thorasap (ໂທຣະສັບ/ໂທລະສັບ thôrasap, /tʰóː lāʔ sáp/) from Sanskrit dura (दूर, /d̪ura/), 'distant', and śabda (शब्द, /ʃabd̪a/), 'sound'. Indic influences also came via Pali, the liturgical language of Theravada Buddhism.

The ancestors of the Lao people were speakers of Southwestern Tai dialects that migrated from what is now southeastern China, specifically what is now Guangxi and northern Vietnam where the diversity of various Tai languages suggests an Urheimat. The Southwestern Tai languages began to diverge from the Northern and Central branches of the Tai languages, covered mainly by various Zhuang languages, sometime around 112 CE, but likely completed by the sixth century.[8] Due to the influx of Han Chinese soldiers and settlers, the end of the Chinese occupation of Vietnam, the fall of Jiaozhi and turbulence associated with the decline and fall of the Tang dynasty led some of the Tai peoples speaking Southwestern Tai to flee into Southeast Asia, with the small-scale migration mainly taking place between the eighth and twelfth centuries. The Tais split and followed the major river courses, with the ancestral Lao originating in the Tai migrants that followed the Mekong River

The Lao language falls within the Lao-Phuthai group of languages, including its closest relatives, Phuthai (BGN/PCGN Phouthai) and Tai Yo. Together with Northwestern Tai-which includes Shan, Ahom and most Dai languages of China, the Chiang Saen languages-which include Standard Thai, Khorat Thai, and Tai Lanna-and Southern Tai form the Southwestern branch of Tai languages. Lao (including Isan) and Thai, although they occupy separate groups, are mutually intelligible and were pushed closer through contact and Khmer influence, but all Southwestern Tai languages are mutually intelligible to some degree. The Tai languages also include the languages of the Zhuang, which are split into the Northern and Central branches of the Tai languages. The Tai languages form a major division within the Kra-Dai language family, distantly related to other languages of southern China, such as the Hlai and Be languages of Hainan and the Kra and Kam-Sui languages on the Chinese Mainland and in neighbouring regions of northern Vietnam
