Day 2

Khmer Phonetic English Keyboard

សក់ sok hair s, k, '


Note that hand and arm, foot and leg are the same word. Khmer uses context and (I think based on a hazy remembrance!) classificationy words to indicate what is being referred to.

I can't find a phonetic translation for elbow, and my kids can only remember the Vietnamese, so that will be added tomorrow.

This is up on iflipr: Khmer Vocabulary Month 1 Deck and displays fine on my desktop. I will update the deck as I add more vocabulary, until it has about 200 words.
