Hello, It's Anchisa from the Ling app here to share another story with you!


In this special Pride Month episode of Learn Thai with Ling, We celebrate Thailand’s historic step toward equality as the first Southeast Asian country to legalize same-sex marriage! 🇹🇭🏳️‍🌈

Explore the rich and colorful language of Thailand’s LGBTQ+ community—from everyday words to playful slang. You’ll learn not only the Thai vocabulary, but also the cultural nuances that make Thailand one of the most queer-friendly countries in the world. 🌈

Plus, don’t miss the chance to book a free live lesson with a Thai tutor to dive deeper into language and identity.


💡 Highlights:

  • เกย์ (gay), เลสเบี้ยน (lesbian), ทอมบอย (thom-boy) – Learn how Thai borrows and adapts

  • สาวประเภทสอง (sǎao prà-pêet sǎawng) – What it really means

  • กะเทย (gà-thoei) – More than just a label

  • Thai gay slang you might hear in daily life 💬

  • The cultural role of kathoey and how Thailand honors gender diversity

  • Pride-themed culture notes now live in the Ling app

  • How to say “Let’s eat together” like a Thai queer icon 😉
