=== Thai tokenizer
++++
<titleabbrev>Thai</titleabbrev>
++++

The `thai` tokenizer segments Thai text into words, using the Thai
segmentation algorithm included with Java. Text in other languages in general
will be treated the same as the
<<analysis-standard-tokenizer,`standard` tokenizer>>.

WARNING: This tokenizer may not be supported by all JREs. It is known to work
with Sun/Oracle and OpenJDK. If your application needs to be fully portable,
consider using the {plugins}/analysis-icu-tokenizer.html[ICU Tokenizer] instead.
