Khmer
is the national language of Cambodia. Unusually for this region, it is not a tonal language, which theoretically makes it easier to master. However, the difficulty lies with pronunciation, as there are both vowels and consonant clusters that are pronounced unlike any sounds in English. That makes it difficult to represent accurately in romanized form, and what follows here is a phonetic approximation widely used for teaching Khmer. Other useful information
