THAILEX Travel Dictionary is an illustrated reference guide on Thailand and is written, designed and composed by Yves Masure. It deals primarily with Thai art, culture and history, as well as with the many cities and places of interest. Because of the direct and inextricable relationship of religion, architecture, ethnology, tradition and nature, it also gives extensive attention to these subjects. Over eighty maps are included to help the reader locate the many places whilst countless unique photos illustrate the explanations.

The original text of this work was written in Dutch with most of the research done from Thai and English sources. Afterward, the text was translated -sometimes back- into English and Thai, adding electronic links to enable the reader to switch languages easily. An attempt has been made to translate each section as precise as possible to the original wording, though due to the individual character of each language minor deviations in syntax and vocabulary may occur. All translations into English and Thai are done by the author himself. Mike Turner proof read the script in English for the first edition; Yodkamon Ponyota, Supharoek Nuammee and Kittisak Buaban assisted with their comments on the Thai script for the third edition; and Kittisak Buaban did the proof reading on the part of the lexicon for this fourth edition.

THAILEX Travel Dictionary is designed to operate like a website with all the ease of use and tools that you would expect. The lay-out is best viewed on your computer with the font set-up in Tahoma and the HTML encoding either in Auto-Select or in Western European (Windows). The set-up in any other script or encoding will most likely result in the lay-out and fonts being displayed out of proportion. This work is designed to be viewed with a screen resolution set at 800 x 600 (256 colours or higher) and text size setting at medium. For a wide screen view use the F11 button.
