Re: Help refinance debt for local friend

As the fella above said You could possibly get a loan at the bank by convincing the guy to come with you and give the title back for $3k, it's less than he would get with the interest but I'm sure he'll take an extra $1k now to end the whole thing Giving $1k extra to this guy would really hurt.

Re: Best place to discuss language learning?

The Khmer school books show the list, usually in different colours. I'm sure you can find it online. Where do you live? I was able to find a Khmer tutor in my home country years ago. Commute was like an hour but it was good for some writing and vocabulary work. Thanks for the tip on the Khmer schoo...

Re: Best place to discuss language learning?

Hi guys! It's my first post here so please bear with me. I'm currently studying Khmer script on my own while in Europe waiting to get back to Cambodia.

Re: Learning Khmer (Basic)

My advice for Youtube is "Khmer Lesson": https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPC5C-zunVqdGpvWi03Zr1A . It provides lots of nuances on why to choose one word over another etc, and it also works well to just ignore the video and listen to the audio. It focuses on the informal rather than the fo...
