Get around Bangkok by every kind of Thai transport — in Thai. This first transport topic covers the city's tangle of options: the บีทีเอส (BTS Skytrain), รถไฟใต้ดิน (MRT underground), buses from the ป้ายรถเมล์ (bus stop), plus the ตุ๊กตุ๊ก (tuk-tuk), วิน (motorbike-taxi rank), รถตู้ (minivan) and สองแถว (shared pickup). You'll learn to ask a taxi to turn on the มิเตอร์ (meter), top up a BTS card, and cope with รถติด (traffic jams). All 27 sentences are recorded by native speakers and come with English translations and word-by-word notes, so the transport vocabulary sticks by ear.
