The language of the Thai people belongs to the Tai group. As such, it shares no connection with Chinese and Vietnamese, but it does have a few similarities with them. For instance, like Chinese, Thai is also a tonal language. It has five different tones. It also shares a lot of similarities with other Tai vernaculars. Two other tongues of the group, Lao and Isan, are mutually intelligible with Thai. The tongue has adopted plenty of English words. Some of them underwent a few spelling changes, and others were adopted as it is. Thai has not undergone a lot of changes in modern times, which is why it is quick to adopt foreign words. The written history of the vernacular is quite old. The earliest written record can be traced back to the 13th century AD. Over forty-million people speak it as their second language. They can be found in different regions, including Isan, Lanna, and Northern Khmer. It is also spoken in the Koh Kong District of Cambodia. www.universal-translation-services.com translation-services.com

How to Get Translation Services? There are twenty million native speakers of the Thai language, but there are over seven billion people in the world. If you wish to communicate with someone who doesn’t speak or understand your language, you will need to get translation services. Even in Thailand, it isn’t the only spoken vernacular, which is why it is impossible to survive in such an environment without the help of translation experts. Especially when a business is operating in a region where multiple vernaculars are spoken, they will need to get help from linguistic experts, or they will fail to connect with their target audience.

But most people are not aware of translation services and how to get them. Many of us have turned to the internet to look up meanings of foreign words and phrases; this is where our knowledge about linguistic solutions end. But when it comes to official documents and business problems, the internet cannot help you. It will fail to provide you with accurate translations.

Where to Get Certified Translation? People who are applying for immigration or university admission will need to get certified translation of their birth certificate. It is the type of translation individuals require most often. It is the one you can only get from a highly qualified expert. It will come with a signed statement of the translator to increase the credibility of their work. You can get certified translations from agencies too.
