Ong Be is the closest relative of Zhuang-Tai languages according to Norquest’s family tree (2007). Ong Be and Tai are grouped under “Be-Tai” which is part of Southern Kra-Dai consisting of Hlai and Be-Tai groups. Proto-Kra-Dai ├Northern Kra-Dai ├Kra └Northeastern ├Lakkia └Kam-Sui └Southern Kra-Dai ├Hlai └Bê-Tai ├Ong Bê └Tai ├Northern (Zhuang) └Southern (Tai proper) ├Tay Nung └Thai, Lao, Shan, Ahom, etc. Central Thai (Siamese) is one of the most divergent Tai languages. It consists of native Austro-Tai, Old- and Middle Chinese, Austroasiatic, Indo-Iranian and Dravidian substratums.
Some of numbers in Thai language are looks similar with Chinese, like a three, four, five, seven, eight, nine and ten. Could you make a video about comparative analysis of Thai and Chinese, please?
The example language is not that Thai, it the language comprises of sanskit word using in temple or a very official situation not the daily use. That’s why it sound so different and not Tai (or even Thai) coded.
This text and particularly this translation of Thai is not the most representative of Thai as a Kra-Dai language, since there are a lot of religious words borrowed from Pali/Sanskrit here. For example, "father" here is "bìdaa" which is from Pali (pitā), but our everyday word for "father" is "pɔ̂ɔ" which is of Kra-Dai origin. Another example is "name" which is "prá-naam" which is Old Khmer + Sanskrit, whereas in everyday language we'd use "chʉ̂ʉ" which is Kra-Dai. For a better comparison, it'd be a good idea to use a less religious text and/or use everyday words. Good video though!
Sanskrit and Pali are Indo-Aryan languages a branch of Indo-European languages. But They aren't European languages. Indo-Aryan language family is the largest language family in South Asia. They are Asian languages. Also Languages in Southeast Asia has lot of influence from Sanskrit and Pali although they are from different language families. They have lot of loanwords from Sanskrit and Pali.
@@justakathings Maybe Kra-Dai languages got tones from Hmong-Mien languages. Most of non-Tai Kra-Dai speakers are culturally very similar to Hmong-Mien people. Yue state was founded by a Baiyue prince descendant of Yi the Great, with supported from Chu State that was ruling in Hmong-Mien's homeland too. So these two have been very close for around 3000+ years now.

Kra-Dai sounds so expressive and fun to say, it sounds like it rolls right off the tongue.
ตัวอักษรไทยเป็นเรื่องยากมากที่จะเชี่ยวชาญ ในตอนแรก ภาษาไทยเป็นอักษรอาบูจิดาที่แพร่หลาย แต่ก็มีคุณภาพโทนเสียงด้วย ฉันเข้าใจเรื่องนั้น แต่ทำไมพวกเขาถึงแยกแยะระหว่างสระเสียงสั้นและสระเสียงยาวด้วย ใช่ มันค่อนข้างแปลก คุณว่ามั้ย? ว้าว พวกเขาสูญเสียเสียงไปมากเช่นกัน ตอนนี้พวกเขามีตัวอักษรจำนวนมากที่ให้เสียงเหมือนกัน ฉันเชื่อว่านี่เป็นสิ่งที่ท้าทายมากกว่าการได้รับความรู้เกี่ยวกับตัวอักษรจีน

Thai and middle Chinese please 🙏🙏🙏
Fun fact: Sanskrit and Pali are European languages, because they're not related to languages spoken in Asia.
In asia have many Indo-European language which related to Sanskrit and pali .
@@ohkeydan6357 I call that region "Arya". It has about the same area as Europe (Russia excluded).
same with Farsi

@@worlddata8982 They're spoken in the region of Arya so they're Aryan languages
Balinese, Iban, Bidayuh pls
Read pls
The original basic words should be compared. Don't compare long sentences. Long Thai sentences are in Pali Sanskrit, not authentic Thai.
Sounds like a rap battle
BUDDHA BLESS THE KRA-DAI
Kra-Dai: a bunch of heavily sinicized Austronesian languages.
Thai is heavily indianized as well full of Pali and sanskrit loan words.
The what? Did you mean Austroasiatic? In any case makes little sense.
Not really, from my understanding, they had tones before Sinitic languages did
