Contrastive analyses between Japanese and Thai language has contributed much to teaching Japanese to Thai student and teaching Thai to Japanese student.
This investigation first gives an overview of contrastive linguistic studies both in general and in Japanese and Thai language. This investigation has eight chapters including twenty-three articles in total, examine the application of contrastive focus which links real linguistic phenomenon and language expressions to comparison analysis in Japanese and Thai basic vocabulary and semantic structures.

The theoretical aim is to examine the correlation, if there is any, between the strategies for coherence and the realms of cultural context. It is also argued that the differences between Japanese and Thai lead to setting up a criterion for deciding which items should be presented last in Japanese language education. In the last, I presented historical features of Thai language study in Japan in the World War II. The end of this research, I presented the list of references articles on the contrastive study between Japanese and Thai.
