Sorry guys - I am on my laptop - no Thai input!
How do we "order" Thai words (as in a dictionary)?
It appears that "computer encoding" of words is different from "spelling".
I.e. the order of words "sorted" on computer is not the same as the "natural" order.
Is this so?
On "word separation problems"; I think some standard forms of separation are very useful. Perhaps a "middle" way between individual words (as in English) and long strings (of words as in Thai) such as separation of all "keywords", common "phrases" (noun phrases and verb phrases) and "foreign text" (including what it sounds like in Thai text) may help with Thai text search.
Can Thai language experts help with how to write Thai properly and easy to search, too?
