Notes on Modern Chinese Loanwords in Thai:
This is a rough look at two data sets:
Gong: GONG Qunhu,
A List of Swatow Loanwords in Thai (2000),
formerly posted at http://gong.tongtu.net. This is a preview of his dissertation.
Pranee: Pranee Gyarunsutu,
Chinese Loanwords in Modern Thai (1983), MS thesis,
Chulalongkorn University, pp 355-406. Her numbering has been extended
slightly to reflect the actual page contents.
When new items have been added (usually by splitting compounds into
heads, and/or extending existing items) they are numbered by
their sources, or by the Unicode Chinese character number.
Chinese glosses and transcription, if supplied, are from Thomas Chin's
ccdict,
which incorporates the Unihan dictionary, and inludes
character readings of Mandarin, Cantonese, and Hakka (Kejia).
Links (eg. 'see MacFarland'), if supplied, point to specific entries, and
are not available on-line.
