youve mentioned you can read/write khmer, it would be good if you could add this to your examples as well, i personally am no longer a fan of romanized khmer tbh I know what you mean, I guess from now on, I'll write both in Khmer script and Romanised for others like taabarang.

i think sah ey is more like an abrupt version of ey?

kind of like....huh????

from personal experience, i dont think it's used with people who are older than you i.e. elders. i got smacked.
