Building Blocks

ការបង្កើតប្រយោគឲ្យវែងជាងមុន

Short sentences are okay, but adding details makes you sound fluent!

ប្រយោគខ្លីៗគឺល្អ ប៉ុន្តែការបន្ថែមព័ត៌មានលម្អិតធ្វើឲ្យអ្នកនិយាយកាន់តែពិរោះ និងច្បាស់លាស់។

pets

Step 1: The Basic Idea

ប្រយោគមូលដ្ឋាន (S-V-O)

Who? + Action

The cat + sleeps.

The cat sleeps. ឆ្មាគេង។

weekend

Step 2: Add 'Where'

បន្ថែមទីកន្លែង

Basic + Where?

The cat sleeps + on the sofa

The cat sleeps on the sofa. ឆ្មាគេងនៅលើសាឡុង។

schedule

Step 3: Add 'When'

បន្ថែមពេលវេលា

Basic + Where? + When?

The cat sleeps on the sofa + every afternoon

The cat sleeps on the sofa every afternoon. ឆ្មាគេងនៅលើសាឡុងរៀងរាល់រសៀល។

warning Word Order Trap!

Don't mix up the order!

(កុំដាក់ពេលវេលានៅកណ្តាលប្រយោគ! ពេលវេលាគួរនៅខាងចុង ឬ ខាងដើម។)

I play today football. ❌

(ខុសវេយ្យាករណ៍)

I play football today. ✔️

(ត្រឹមត្រូវ)

Yes, Rithy! You can put the Time at the very end OR the very beginning. "Every morning, I drink coffee" is perfect! Just don't put it in the middle. sentiment_satisfied
