Khmer Language Questions (Learning and Speaking Cambodian)

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.

Samouth & co.

How about the English alphabet in Khmer? The ABCs, but in Khmer script.

Little challenge for Samouth, but it would be cool to see and helpful too.

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

Yeah that's it Samouth! Just like that.
All the way to Z, all 26 English letters.

Some of them will be tricky I imagine. It will be interesting to see how you write them. (Oh, and remember proper English so Z is 'Zed' not 'zee')

Thanks Samouth! I'll do a news story translation for CEO over the weekend in return.

Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Bleed is ចេញឈាម = Jenhcheam

ខ្ញុំចេញឈាមច្រើន​ពេក = Khnyom Jenhcheam Cheran Bpayk = I Bleed Too Much :hattip:
