Market

Take a trip to a Thai market and learn how to shop like a local! Visit a seafood stall, a butcher, a vegetable stall and a fruit stall, and learn the names of dozens of everyday foods along the way. At each stall, you’ll hear how to ask for prices, order the amount you want by the kilo, bunch, plate or piece, and pay the vendor. The lesson finishes with a handy recap of the key phrases you need for your own trip to the market.
