Translation tips
Politeness particles ครับ/ค่ะ are essential
Thai sentences typically end with ครับ (kráp, male speaker) or ค่ะ/คะ (kâ/ká, female speaker). Omitting them sounds abrupt or rude. DeepL adds ครับ by default — appropriate for formal and general contexts.
No spaces between words
Thai script does not use spaces between words — only between clauses or sentences. Word boundaries are determined by context and dictionary knowledge. This makes Thai one of the hardest languages for machines to segment correctly.
Classifiers for counting
Thai uses classifiers when counting: 'แมว 3 ตัว' (cat 3 [animal-classifier]) not just 'แมว 3'. There are dozens of classifiers for different categories — animals, flat objects, vehicles, people. Using the wrong one sounds unnatural.
Five tones change meaning
Thai has five tones: mid, low, falling, high, and rising. 'Mai' with different tones means: new, burn, silk, not, or is a question particle. Written Thai marks tones with diacritics — translation must produce the correct characters.
Did you know? Thai is the only Southeast Asian language with its own unique alphabet — created in 1283 by King Ramkhamhaeng. The script has 44 consonants, 15 vowel symbols that combine into 28 vowel forms, and 4 tone marks.

Frequently asked questions
Does it add the right politeness particles?
Yes. DeepL adds ครับ (male politeness particle) by default. For contexts requiring ค่ะ (female), you can adjust the output. The particles are grammatically correct in placement.
How does it handle Thai classifiers?
DeepL uses the correct classifier for counted nouns: ตัว for animals, คน for people, เล่ม for books, ใบ for flat objects. This is one of the hardest parts of Thai grammar for non-native speakers.
Is Thai script produced correctly?
Yes. All Thai consonants, vowel combinations, tone marks, and special characters are produced correctly. The output renders properly in all modern browsers and devices.
Can it translate between Thai and other Asian languages?
Yes. Thai ↔ Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese all work well. DeepL handles the structural differences between isolating languages (Thai, Chinese) and agglutinative ones (Japanese, Korean).
