Reads out selected thai text
What is Speak Thai?
"Speak Thai" is a simple and handy Chrome extension designed to read out selected Thai text. It uses Google's text-to-speech technology for this purpose. The tool is primarily aimed at users who understand spoken Thai language but face a challenge reading it in script form. To use it, just select the Thai text, right-click and choose 'Speak Thai' from the context menu. It also supports keyboard shortcuts for a more convenient experience. Please note that it currently works best with short bits of text.
