Sorry about the font, it wasn't deliberate. Sorry about the length too, I actually had to shorten it to 10,000 characters to get it accepted, which is why its a bit brief and brusque to read. You should have seen the length of the original article.
Some longtimers might think its all obvious, but as a relative newby I found it helpful. It explained and organised random thoughts I'd had. Its clear the Thai first language does affect the second language, but pinning down how is difficult, so this is a useful summary I thought.
If its helpful, that's good. If it's not, well ignore it...
