  • Hi guys. Thanks for watching my videos. Don't worrry, I'm still active on Youtube =) I wish I had more free time. I've been away for six months and I am still busy. Anyways,I am in Japan right now and I left all of my Cambodian language learning resources at home in America. I even left my digital camera there too. =(

    I'll ask my brother to send them to me.

    Hopefully I can continue my lessons :D

  • i see ur gettin better..good job bro!

  • Thanks.

  • you have the travel Cambodia book don't you?

    I got one from the library

    and the spelling looks the same lol.

    isn't it mostly formal though?

  • No, I don't have the travel Cambodia book so I can't comment on whether its mostly formal or not. I have Colloquial Cambodian, A Cambodian English Dictionary by Hippocrene books and some Cambodian books my mom bought for me in Cambodia.

  • "Jouy Kyom Ban Té"??? LOL!

  • Haha

see all

  • do not say such a bad word like "fuck" ok !!!!!

  • such a good thing to learn but next time can this learning got lesson 9 , please ????

  • Good job and keep up the work and vids!;)) Yeah Im Khmer!

  • @jennyfurfur You can't confuse because the are two differents sonority for the two differents words.

    help is: joy but the o prononce "ou" like in "you".

    and fuck is:joy with the o that prononce "o" comme dans "toy".

    So it's impossible to twist , don't worry.

    You can actually confuse when you will drink with your khmer friends and say "cheese".

    Ask your friends for that!

    Have good time in Cambodia! :)

  • theres a differents joy means fuck and juy means help so dont get it twisted when you make fun of our language

  • Well, I live in Cambodia right now for a few months, and i'm learning Khmer. I'd like to add something lol please read this:

    In Khmer, to say "Help Me" you say "joy-ee knom".

    Unfortunately, to say "Fuck Me" you say "joy knom" (sounds like "joy" with a bit of an A sound too, "joay"?)

    So please, before you go around asking people to help you, make sure you're pronouncing it right. lol

  • Joo-ah is pronounce like juay? Sound like Thai/Lao word for help choy/soy

  • How do you say?

    "I am looking for a kickboxing gym?"
