Abstract

This paper presents the current status of the first standardized multimodal language resource for Thai cuisine. Scrupulously translated from Thai to other seven foreign languages: English and Italian; Spanish and Chinese; German and Japanese, with French, this contains 1,654 parallel lexical entries together with the illustrations and recorded voices. All nodes were attached and retained in the designed tree structure with fourteen categories and nineteen subcategories. To utilize a benefit of the project is to develop an application manifesting texts, images, speeches, and suggesting the dietary pattern of Thai food tailored to the personal health conditions and preferences.
