@3200Parker Thai and Khmer share about 30% of their lexicon. However, it is important to note that Khmer and Thai come from completely different origins and are unrelated languages. The shared lexicon derives from interactions between the two cultures and borrowing words from the same Pali Sanskrit base.
I would like to see a professional show hosted by discovery channel with Antonio Graceffo going around doing martial arts, kind of similar to what hes doing at the moment but for world wide TV.
Actually i am Assistant producer of this episode, i worked as fixer, translater, writer and scout. then once we started filming i was second producer.
@brooklynmonk1 I wish I had known it when I lived there. Maybe I'll come back this summer, but I really need to practice karate in america all summer (+ make money lawyering...). You should check out their crazy kyokushin school. It just seems like total brawling + kata to me...I don't know if you've been there, they've got three schools out in a huge parking lot as I recall (tkd, thieu lam + karate)...could be fun for you.
@elenchus There is no Kyokushin school in Vietnam yet. In fact, I have been talking to the Southeast Asian head of Kyokushin about starting a club here. where did you see this? Tell me, and I will go visit them.
@brooklynmonk1 it's in your inbox. I was wrong, they're shorin, but they fight like kyokushin. full contact, no pads, no point sparring. I wouldn't say it's kickboxing esque though so it's just f'in crazy. These guys train in kata etc, but in combat they look just like barbarians to me.
Kmher language is sometimes similar to Thai language.
