New: the krap/ka switch. Hear every phrase in a male or female voice with the right polite ending. 18 categories, all offline.
Wai gets you speaking Thai the moment you land. Real phrases for the taxi, the night market, the hotel and the beach, with natural audio and word-by-word breakdowns. Free to start.
Most language apps drill vocabulary you will forget before takeoff. You do not need a textbook. You need to ask how much the mango sticky rice costs, tell the driver to slow down, and say thank you the polite way. Wai gives you exactly that.
THE KRAP/KA SWITCH
Thai is polite in two flavours. Men end phrases with khrap, women with kha. Flip one switch and every phrase in Wai changes its text, its pronunciation guide and its audio to match your voice. No other phrasebook does this properly.
18 REAL-WORLD CATEGORIES
Taxi and Tuk-tuk, Street Food and Market, Restaurant, Hotel, Shopping and Bargaining, Massage and Spa, Temples and Culture, Beach and Islands, Nightlife, Dating, Motorbike, Small Talk and more. Over 500 phrases picked for real situations.
HEAR IT, THEN SAY IT
Tap any phrase for clear native-style audio at full speed or slow speed. See a word-by-word breakdown with tone marks and a short note on the nuance, so you understand what you are saying.
SHOW THE DRIVER
Turn any phrase into a giant full-screen Thai card you can show a taxi driver, pharmacist or street vendor when saying it feels like too much.
MADE FOR THE TRIP
Search everything in English, phonetics or Thai. Heart your favourites into a personal cheat sheet. Learn the five tones with a 60-second guide. Practice mode quizzes you on the phrases you actually saved. Everything works offline, with no account and no login.
Wai is free to download and explore, and the Greetings category is free forever, audio included. A free 3-day trial unlocks every category, all audio, word-by-word mode and Practice.
