On earlier versions of Android I had to install a sketchy language pack, but on the latest version it already showed up. I don't type in Khmer, so haven't tried any keyboard.

Hmmmm.. It's not super common, but you will come across Cambodians that speak it from time to time.

What exactly do you mean?

I can translate from Khmer script to other languages besides English...

The full browser version allows you to select from various translations (in this case, Khmer translations) by clicking on the offered translation and selecting from a popup list of others - doesn't seem to exist in the mobile browser version. I'll get some screenshots if still unclear.

Used it this morning to ask for soy sauce for my Bai Sach Chhrouk. Worked great.

I tried to use it to ask for kecap manis or sweet soy... Didn't go well at all!

Actually Google Translate will work best if you just translate only word by word. It will go crazy when it comes to translate the sentence or whole article. As a Translator, i would not suggest you guys to use Google Translate for any official documents.

This works only if the seller is able to read (and write)

Yeah, I have to use it a lot to decipher Khmer news, and it's really hard sometimes.

Still seems to be getting noticeably better month by month.

Unfortunately it's my only hope of understanding the local news without being able to read Khmer.

Is it me or has Chrome stopped automatically translating Khmer websites? It used to translate them, now it has stopped and I can't turn it back on.
