Your first week with Khmer

Days 1 and 2: make the first phrase familiar. Start with “Hello”. Hear it, try it, and revisit it tomorrow.
Days 3 and 4: add another exchange. Practice “Yes (said by men)”. Try recalling it before looking at the written example.
Days 5 through 7: put your voice first. Revisit your Khmer starter phrases. Choose the one you would most like to use in a real conversation.
