The language used as a standard language in Thailand is Thai language.
There are 42 types for consonants, 9 types for vowels, and 5 tones.
Pronunciation is comfortable to the ear, it makes a soft pronunciation like coming out of the nose.
Especially in Bangkok, I dislike talking loudly, like talking in a gentle tone with a slight voice in a gentle tone, so it may sound like quietly speaking Chinese for people who do not understand Thai Hmm.
