World's Most Complicated Writing System (corrections in the description)

CORRECTIONS:
1: The Thai writing system has actually changed way more than I thought. I still think this is a good overview of why it's as complicated as it is, but Thai people can't actually still read stuff that's super old. Please disregard that lengthy, passionate speech at the end about how their writing system connects them to their ancient past.
2: Like I said, there are plenty of writing systems I didn't know about, and NativLang makes a very good case that the Tibetan writing system is actually the most complicated: • The Hardest Language T...
3: "Vocalized" is not what I ment. The word I should have used is "voiced." "Vocalized" means something different.

    As a Thai, I can confirm that our writing system is super hard - a single error could change the meaning entirely. We also don't use space that much in our writings so multiple words are squished together and you have to know the context like ตากลม which could mean either a round eye or enjoying the weather. Also, if you missed the correct tone by just a little, the result can be hilarious like สวย (beautiful) and ซวย (bad luck)

    Hi, I notice some mistakes in this video. In 5:10 ,the symbol of “mái dtrii” (ไม้ตรี) isn’t correct, it should be this symbol ๊ . That symbol you showed is called “mái tàikú” (ไม้ไต่คู้) which is used for another form of some short sound vowels. Anyway, I believe some Thai people still confused with using these two symbols. 😂 And the question about the tones at 7:30 ,it would be a whole lecture class to completely understand that but I’ll try my best to make it simple as much as possible. 1. Thai consonants divided into 3 types based on level of the sound. 2. Thai “words” has 5 tones which is based on the 4 tone markers and another one is the original sound of the consonant (no marker). 3. 3 types of Thai consonants have difference rules of using tone markers (the toughest one, same goes to Thai people 🥲). Btw, nice video and good luck on your Thai language learning. ❤

    The alphabet is complicated for writing, but not for speaking. Actually there are only 20 "spoken" consonants. That is one less than in English. There are 14 vowel sounds. That is two more than in English. The trick is that the vowel sounds can be short and long. And then there are the five tones.

    The thing is, Thai writing is almost the hardest language to write but it's also one of the most easy language to pronounce. Once you understand the language, the characters, vowels and tone marks already strongly indicate on how the word is supposed to pronounce.

    Learning Thai language is like playing picture puzzle game. No rules about where to start , but anywhere. This is the true difficulty of Thai language. No strict clear rules , No fixed grammar rule for constructing sentences. This gives two perspectives of Thai language : Very easy and Very difficult at the same time. No fixed usage sentence pattern , so you have to create your own sentence patterns. It takes a lot of imagination to interpret and understand , especially writing.

    In Thai we have "ๆ" which is use to replicate a word in front of it. If English have this feature, it'd be like "haๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆ" which equal to hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha Very useful when we chatting online because we just hold "ๆ" botton. No need to type h and a and so on (or ctrl + C) I surprised that English don't have it. The first time I realized it I was like "Wait, where? no one create this symbol?"

    I'm Thai and the fun fact is even thai people are confuse about their language because of some words have same sounds but different meanings. Example Mai (ไหม้) means burn Mai (ไม่) means no So sometimes when we want to buy some food or when we ask the cook to cook food. We will say mai(ไม่) mai (ไหม้)(Not burn) but the cook might think the costumer want mai (burn) food so they makes it burn lol.😂 It's one of the most famous joke in Thailand. Sorry if I spelled some words wrong because I'm not good at English.

    It turns out, there are just enough keys in QWERTY to write down pretty much all Thai graphemes, if you treat the Shift key as a "temporary layout switch" key. This is nothing weird to typewriters, to whom "K" and "k" are as different as "K" and "Q". So that's what we did, all the way into the computer age. No need for complex IMEs.

    NERDS ONLY I checked the description and comments, and I haven’t seen anyone mention this; thai tone rules are not as simple as adding tone markers. The consonants are separated into 3 different classes, two vowel lengths, and two different endings. Based on the way the consonants, vowel lengths, and endings interact with each other, one can determine the tone of the word...but ONLY if there isn’t a tone marker. If there IS a tone marker, one only needs to know the consonant class and corresponding tone marker rule to know the pronunciation. I’m not an expert, but this is how it’s been presented to me as a learner of the Thai language and American expat long term in Thailand. 🇹🇭

    I'll try my best to explain. First, each consonants have their default tone, there are 3 tones for consonants, and 5 for tone marks, for example ค = flat 'k' ข = high 'k' พ = low 'p' ผ = high 'p' flat tone consonants are simple, you put tone marks on them, and it sounds exactly like their tone marks, but high and low on the other hand, high consonants without tone marks will sound like 5th tone, which is the highest, low consonants without tone marks will sound flat with long vowel, but sound like 3rd tone with short vowel, when you put 2nd tone mark on them it sounds like 3rd tone. Some consonants can be put in front of another consonants to make it change its tone too. There are more details missing but you get the idea. And there are also คำตาย which literally translated as 'dead word' but it means tone fixed word, it's a mix of certain consonants + short vowel (and/or) certain final consonant, the word will be tone fixed and you can't put any tone marks on it. this is just about tone though, there are so many more special rules, like คำควบกล้ำ which is not as hard as tone.

    Thai has 5 tone sounds actually,เสียงสามัญ(normal),เสียงเอก(deep),เสียงโท(falling),เสียงตรี(high), เสียงจัตวา(rising) (I don’t know either whether the English in the parentheses is correct or not I just google how to let others know about Thai tone in English, so I don’t know where how they come because I learned the Thai sound in Thai words), BTW, the first one don’t have tone marks. Apart from that, we have tone marks ไม้เอก (่), ไม้โท(้), ไม้ตรี(๊), ไม้จัตวา (๋) (call the same as tone sounds with ไม้ instead of เสียง. However, sometimes you might realise that the tone marks and sounds didn’t accompany that is because we have ไตรยางศ์, การผันวรรณยุกต์ (tonal infection), คำตาย, and คำเป็น which will affect the forms and the tone. The grammar of verb, adjective, noun, pronoun, adverb similar to English, but the order, particles using, and usually don’t use s, es, ed, ing or v. to be the same as Chinese. Therefore, learning Chinese will be easier than English when using sentence like can just place the words back and forth and that’s it. However, the difficulty is that remembering Chinese characters is very difficult as I don’t see the pictures as Chinese have. Even though I’m Chinese and don’t have any Thai bloodline in my family of the both sides (because they immigrated from China since the democratic and authoritative war), it is difficult for me as I learned Thai in my entire life, so I just have little basic knowledge of Chinese as I learned some in high school. Now, it’s even harder as I study in international program in the university and I learn Chinese as my free elective, but I can understand and remember Chinese characters more than before as the professor knows very well on how to help students remember. For Chinese characters, it’s like Greek root, if you know some of them, you can guess or mix and match them with other word and know the meaning something like that. My suggestion for who would like to learn Thai is that just know how to type, read, and write in Thai for daily life is fine (not include Thai words that is too difficult even for Thais), how to form sentences (sometimes, you can omitted the subject, this would be so natural), you can switch the order of words as well as long as it’s not weird, slangs come every day including cool phrases normally come from LGBT, knowing them would make you slay and fashionable like you are up to date.
