Have you ever been called "Ah" in Khmer?
Re: Have you ever been called
Poor you. It is actually very common. I heard many times that khmer calls barang Ah barang, because they thought that those foreigners don't understand it. Good that you have read CEO, so you understood what she meant.Kampong Spooner wrote:Every inlaw younger than my wife is ah-something. Today i got into an altercation with the old rice pikey bitch neighbour who called me 'ah barang'. Spiteful betel stained foul mouthed cow that she is.
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.

If I hear someone using something that sounds bad, I just repeat it back at them. Well, what can they do?
If I get really pissed off, I call them Vietnamese
