Heart Talk (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Heart Talk explores the emotional range of the Thai language through the word jai-the heart. In Thailand, the heart is more than a metaphor; it is the center of thought, mood, and connection. This updated digital edition presents over 900 jai-based expressions, organized by situation and nuance, revealing how Thai speakers convey compassion, anger, generosity, and joy. Each entry includes pronunciation and phonetic guides, illustrative examples, and a sign-language bonus for selected phrases. Drawing on decades of cross-cultural insight, Christopher G. Moore opens the private realm of Thai feeling-the linguistic heartscape where relationships are formed and emotions negotiated. For language learners, expats, translators, and anyone intrigued by how emotions shape speech, Heart Talk offers both a practical handbook and a window into Thailand's cultural soul.
