Publisher's Synopsis
Lao is spoken in Laos and northeastern Thailand, where it is called 'Isan'. Focusing on the main dialect of the Lao PDR, this is the first Lao dictionary to present the correct Ventiane pronunciation. As one of the few Lao/English dictionaries available, the English-Lao section has been expanded for English speakers seeking such a reference. The phrasebook, also including pronunciation, provides cultural and language tips for the traveller.
