:( Khmer just got harder... Ahh , but thanks! Gotta practice harder now

I learn better by hearing. This is a perfect tutorial from learning the vowels. Check out Lesson 12 if I remember correctly. He shows you how some of the vowels work. It may help for for that are having trouble with it.

Sometimes you'll hear "strong" and "weak" consonants and vowels referred to as "first series" and "second series".

This series ROCKS!

this is very confusing--the strong sound that is. Is there a rationale or a pattern to the strong sounds? Or something will make it easier to memorize. I see no pattern or anything to make an association =(. Help, I am stuck at this point and can't move on without learning it correctly

i thought learning the consonants was hard enough. the vowels even harder. telling myself 'I CAN DO THIS'. lol.

Nice explaining well done! Bro.

Example: Kaw(1 consonant) with Sra Ah(1st vowel)=Kah*

but if... Goe*(3consonant) with Sra Ah(1vowel)= Kear

Another example if. Jaw(6th consonant) with Sra Ah(1 vowel) = Jah

Joe(8th consonant) with Sra Ah(1vowel)= Jear*
