- Title
OCCIDENTAL MUSICAL TERMS IN THAI.
- Authors

- Abstract
Occidental music has been present in Thailand since the sixteenth century as a result of diplomatic exchanges and international relationships with missionaries. Today, Thai people use Occidental musical terms that were widely studied and translated during the twentieth century. These equivalents have been incorporated into Thai in three principal ways: transliteration, translation and coinage. Problems arise with terms that refer back to English; with newly coined terms adapted without regard to their historical context and their origins; and with terms based on Pali or Sanskrit lexical elements, rendering them incomprehensible.
