Here are some statistics about the Lao language and the Thai language. Now I understand why Thai language is similar to Lao language, but with a slight Khmer twist to it.

-------------------------------------------------------------

The Lao language is made up of the following:

67.56% Lao
24.97% Pali
5.90% Sanskrit
0.53% Khmer
0.40% Thai (Siamese)
0.28% Chinese
0.23% French

-------------------------------------------------------------

The Thai language is made up of the following:

55.55% Lao
24.97% Pali
7.41% Thai
5.90% Sanskrit
5.53% Khmer
0.28% Chinese
0.23% English

For Thai

1 Tai
2 Sanskrit
3 Pali
4 Khmer (and Mon)
5 Chinese (southern)
6 Malay, European...

There are Sanskrit words more than Pali, I don't know why Lao have more Pali, maybe they cannot clearly distinguish Pali and Sanskrit due to their writing is very phonetic unlike Thai writing which can trace back the root of all loan words (including Khmer and Chinese).
