Need some help on getting a delicate message to a TG, and I do not want the meaning to get “diluted” with a poor translation?
The girl in question speaks a little English but not able to read and write much in English. (just the normal “miss you”, “love you”, “buffalo is dead” etc)
So the question is if I send the message in Thai, but with English letters is she likely to get the meaning? Or must I resort to Thai characters, which I guess would rule out sending a text message from a UK phone.

If you need to communicate with your TG using SMS, Thai text (with Thai alphabets) is the best way to go.
If her English is limited, it is possible that she will not be able to read out the English or Thai-like sounds the way you do. I tried the transliterated Thai, like "Sabai dee mai", etc., simple sentences were okay, but beyond that, it was hopeless, especially when the word can be read many ways without tonal information.

Thanks for the reply BK, and as I suspected.
SMS is not possible (I think) as my messages will appear in English.
Found this site which has a nice feature of translating English Text to Thia Characters, so I guess I will have to use this to resorted to the old fashioned method.

has anyone tried using the english to thai translation to cut and paste back into SMS software on their PC. I tend to SMS my TGF using my PC linked to my phone, because its easier to type. I just wondered if I cut and paste a thai alphabet translation into the software, then send, will this come out properly at the other end?
