Need help from a Khmer speaker please

Have questions or resources regarding Khmer Culture? This forum is all about the Kingdom of Cambodia's culture. Khmer language, Cambodian weddings, French influence, Cambodian architecture, Cambodian politics, Khmer customs, etc? This is the place. Living in Cambodia can cause you to experience a whole new level of culture shock, so feel free to talk about all things related to the Khmer people, and their traditions. And if you want something in Khmer script translated into English, you will probably find what you need.

Well done, Samouth!!
@ flb, in Khmer we say រីករាយ means happy.
Christmas (គ្រីស្ដម៉ាស) in Engling but in Khmer ណូអែល( i think French word) means Christmas.

You missed the bit at the front, the 'bon'.
'Bon ណូអែល' is Bon Noel.

@Lil Moon, 'Noel' will be understood by most foreigners. :beer3:

បើសិនធ្វើចេះ ចេះឲ្យគេកោត បើសិនធ្វើឆោត ឆោតឲ្យគេអាណិត។

If you know a lot, know enough to make them respect you, if you are stupid, be stupid enough so they can pity you.
