Language app

Post by croc01 » August 29, 2019, 7:36 am

Hi all, I am in a situation that probably many of us are in.
My Thai wife and 20yr old stepdaughter speak only Thai even though they both have pretty good English. I sit there like an egg wandering what they are on about.
Is there an app or device available that would allow me to follow the conversation?
Thanks

Don't know the link, but search 'Translaty', which appears to me to be a better device, based on the demonstrations.
Good luck.

Thanks folks, I suppose when one has to go down this road things aren't looking too positive. But I do think I am better off knowing

Kinda inconsiderate of them to keep you out of the loop. Especially since they do know some English. Or are they too lazy to bother and translate, so you can feel involved, shows you where you stand in importance.

About the same standing of importance you have Farlang.

Many years ago my 14 year old step daughter asked me to buy her a "talking dick"....????...she dragged me down to Central to show me the talking Thai - English dictionary she wanted.
