à¸?ัวอัà¸Âษรà¹?à¸?ยà¹Âละ Roman Words

 

Just curious about printed materials that contain roman words mixed in with thai script. For example: �ม�ื�อ Nathaniel (My name is Nathaniel).

 

When adding roman words to thai sentences, what is the normal practice as far as spacing is concerned. I realize there may not be a rule for this, but I am just curious. Which of the following 4 sentences is more likely to appear in print.

 

1) �ม�ื�อ Nathaniel

2) �ม�ื�อNathaniel

3) �ม�ื�อnathaniel

4) �ม�ื�อ nathaniel

 

I realize that a person should try to type the roman words transiliterally using thai script, but for the situations where you don't want to do that and you actually want to include a roman word in your thai sentence. What is the normal practice. Another words, tell me how you have seen it in a book or in the newspaper just so I have an idea of how it is normally done.
