Abstract
There were several loanwords from Pali and Sanskrit in Thai vocabulary. There also were some changes of sounds, meaning, and parts of speech. This article aimed to study the parts of speech and word formation in Pali and Sanskrit, and parts of speech of the loanwords used in Thai. The result revealed that the loanwords from Pali and Sanskrit could be divided into groups: nouns, verbs and indeclinable words. But most loanwords used in Thai were from noun inPali and Sanskrit, i.e., they changed the parts of speech from nouns to verbs, adjectives/adverbs, pronouns, or retained as nouns.
