Where's the best place to discuss Khmer language and such? I don't see a specific area for it. I'm actively learning the language, so it's it's nice bounce stuff off others every now and then.

Topic please mods... Happy to discuss with Jacob, but probably not interesting to GenPop.

Agreed! Is there a place to suggest topics? Maybe I missed it.

Would you like this moved to the "Cambodian Culture" section? That should cover a nation's language.

That seems like a good home for it. Like a subsection or what?

Nope. I considered it awhile ago, but really enjoy one on one tutors combined with LINK. What about you?

I thought I recognized your avatar as someone I had taken a class at RUPP with. I am just starting up again with private lessons. I've fallen seriously far behind.

Good luck! What level are you in? If I went, I don't know which class I'd take.

Ok you language wizards. Bestow your wisdom upon me.
Two words:
ប្រលáŸáž€ - Google translate says, briefly. My Trusted khmer dictionary says nothing, meaning there is no listing. I trust Google translate as much as a Khmer water faucet.
កម្លាំងážáŸ’សោយ I know កម្លាំង means energy. I know ážáŸ’សោយ means weak. I can come up with a fairly educated conclusion but wanted to check and see first. Google translate says, faint which I guess is a possible answer.
