Pasah Thai is spoken in Bangkok. It is taught in schools and universities and heard on radio and TV as well. It is standardThai. However, working class people such as taxi drivers, waiters and sales people in the markets use pasah talad, which is widely used, but not a “literary” language for daily use. One of the most used dialects is pasah isan, which is similar to Laotian and used in the Northeast of Thailand and pasah dai, the language of the non-Muslim Thai people in the South. The ethnic minorities living in the mountains in the North have their own language.
