Whether or not this is accurate, the Thai script is most likely based on Khmer writing, to which it remains similar.
He may have been the writer of an inscription claimed to be the earliest example of the Thai script. The invention of the Thai script is traditionally attributed to Ram Khamhaeng, a 13 th-century Thai king who is also credited with establishing Theravada Buddhism as the state religion. Like other Brahmic scripts, Thai is written from left to right, without distinguishing between upper and lower case, but unlike most others, spaces are not normally included between words, appearing instead at the end of phrases or sentences.ĭuring the first millennium CE, China had significant influence in Southeast Asia, and Chinese writing was used to write Thai, but this was eventually abandoned in favor of scripts derived from Brahmi. The 44 consonants of Thai are written in full, while vowels and tones are represented with the use of diacritics which modify the consonant letter. It is an abugida, meaning that unlike alphabets such as Greek or Latin, is not written with complete vowels. The Monotype Korean fonts support both Hangul, as well as Hanja characters.
The primary character set found in free Korean fonts, as well as pro ones, is the KSC 5601 standard, with 17,100 characters. The writing system of Thai is the Thai script, which is one of many scripts derived from the ancient Brahmi system of India. Hanja actually refers to the Chinese ideograph characters which are used in a typical Korean font, and it’s much less often used than Hangul.
Thai (ภาษาไทย) is the official language of Thailand. It is spoken by about 65 million people mainly in Thailand, and also in the Midway Islands, Singapore, the UAE and the USA.
