Learn khmer on video, how to introduce yourself

Pour mon apprentissage de la langue khmère, j’ai décidé d’utiliser tous les moyens possibles. Je suis tombée sur une vidéo que j’ai trouvé extra pour apprendre le khmer en vidéo.

Learn Khmer on video with Learn Cambodia with Khema

I discovered this video while doing some research on the internet and I must say that it caught my attention. As I try to learn Khmer alone (without a teacher) I found this video interesting.

Khema is French of Cambodian origin, a bit like me. She has created videos (a series of ten) to help people like you and me learn Khmer . In my learning, I will watch them all and give you a feedback on APLEKH 🙂 What I appreciate in

What I appreciate in this video is her impeccable French accent and her ability to speak Khmer without the French accent ! As I do not yet know how to pronounce Khmer well , I will be able to watch this video several times to accustom my ear.

What you will learn in this video

Khema explains how to introduce yourself in Cambodian and gives you a vocabulary list

What I learned in this video

I have learned:

• useful vocabulary to introduce oneself in Cambodian vocabulaire utile pour se présenter en cambodgien
• to say hello in Khmer (I already know how to do that 😉 )
• the structure of the sentence “I am.. . » > « khniom chea » which will allow you to make short sentences, a good start! structure de la phrase « je suis... » > « khniom chea » qui va permettre de faire des phrases courtes, un bon début !
• it is a somewhat "barbaric" language if I want to say "I want to work" in Khmer it is said "khniom chang thveu-kar" which I translate as "I want to work" it is easier without conjugation is it not? 😀 langue un peu « barbare » si je veux dire « je veux travailler » en khmer ça se dit « khniom chang thveu-kar » que je traduis par « moi vouloir travailler » c’est plus facile sans conjugaison n’est-ce pas ? 😀
• that learning Khmer on video can go very quickly to know how to speak Khmer
