1. Introduction
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> As electronic communications are now increasing, the term Natural Language Processing should be considered in the broader aspect of Multi- Language Processing system. An important phase in the system development process is requirement engineering, which can define as the process of analyzing the problems in a certain language. An essential part of the requirementengineering phase is computational language modeling which is an abstract representation of the behavior of the language. In order to have a good language model for creating cost-effective solutions to the practical problems, the language resources are necessary for the language behavior analysis.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> This paper intended to express what we have and what we have done by the desire to make a bridge between the languages and to share and make maximal use of the existing lexica, corpus and the tools. Three main topics are, then, focussed: * A State of the Art of Thai language Resources that will give an overview of what we have in Corpus, Lexicon and tools for corpus processing and analysis.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="2"> * Thai language behaviors (only in word and phrase level) analyzed from the varieties of corpus which consist of Lexicon growth, New word formation and Phrase/Sentence construction, and * The computational models providing for those behaviors, which consist of Unknown Word Extraction and Name Entities identification, New word generation and Noun phrase recognition.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="3"> The remainder of the paper is organized as follows. In section 2, we give the gateway of Thai language resources. Thai Language behaviors are discussed in section 3. In section 4, then, provides Thai Language Computational Modeling as a basis for creating cost-effective solutions to those practical problems.</Paragraph>
