🗣️

Speak Clearly!

ការបញ្ចេញសំឡេងលេខ និងការស្វាគមន៍

Pronunciation is about being understood. Let's practice saying numbers and greetings naturally.

ការបញ្ចេញសំឡេង គឺដើម្បីឲ្យគេស្តាប់យើងយល់។ តោះអនុវត្តនិយាយលេខ និងការស្វាគមន៍ឲ្យបានត្រឹមត្រូវនិងធម្មជាតិ។
1️⃣

Numbers 1-10

ផ្តោតលើសំឡេងកន្ទុយពាក្យ (Ending Sounds)
Three /θriː/ បី
Tip: Put your tongue between your teeth for "Th". (ដាក់អណ្តាតចន្លោះធ្មេញ)
Five /faɪv/ ប្រាំ
Tip: Bite your bottom lip for the "v" sound. (ខាំបបូរមាត់ក្រោមបន្តិច)
Eight /eɪt/ ប្រាំបី
Tip: Don't forget the sharp "t" at the end! (កុំភ្លេចសំឡេង t នៅចុង)
1️⃣3️⃣

The "Teens"

ទាញសំឡេងវែងនៅចុង (Long Stress)

Say: for-TEEN
Fifteen /ˌfɪfˈtiːn/ ដប់ប្រាំ

Say: THIR-ty (or Thir-dee)
Forty /ˈfɔːrti/ សែសិប
Say: FOR-ty (or For-dee)

The Pronunciation Trap! ⚠️

13 vs 30

(កុំនិយាយច្រឡំគ្នា! វាអាស្រ័យលើការសង្កត់សំឡេង (Stress))
13 = thir-TEEN
30 = THIR-ty

Greetings

ការស្វាគមន៍បែបធម្មជាតិ
Hello! សួស្តី!
Make sure to pronounce the "H": Hhh-eh-low (កុំអានថា "អេឡូ")
Good morning! អរុណសួស្តី!
Native speakers often connect it: Goo-dmorning.
How are you? តើអ្នកសុខសប្បាយជាទេ?
Fast speech sounds like: How-r-ya?

Teacher, I hear in movies people say "G'morning" instead of "Good morning". Is that okay?

Yes, Sokha! That is called "connected speech". Native speakers talk fast, so they drop the "d" sound. It sounds like "Guh-morning". It is very natural for speaking! 🗣️

I can't make the "Th" sound for Three and Thirty. Any tips?

Hi Vannak! It takes practice. Lightly bite the tip of your tongue and push air out (like a snake hissing). Do not say "Tree" (ដើមឈើ). Keep practicing in front of a mirror! 🪞
