Consonant Trainer
ฝึกพยัญชนะ
Thai tone rules depend heavily on consonant class. If you want tones to stop feeling random, class recall has to be automatic.
Consonant Class Trainer turns that into fast drillable skill: see a consonant, identify mid/high/low, repeat in short rounds.
What You'll Do
- •See a Thai consonant
- •Choose its class (mid/high/low)
- •Get instant feedback and build speed through repetition
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- ✗Trying to memorize all 44 consonants at once—focus on the 24 high-frequency ones first
- ✗Ignoring consonant class and jumping to tone rules—class is the foundation
- ✗Not drilling aspiration contrasts—the aspirated/unaspirated distinction does not exist in English and needs dedicated practice
