The English Alphabet

អក្ខរក្រមភាសាអង់គ្លេស

The English alphabet has 26 letters. Every letter has a Big shape (Uppercase) and a Small shape (Lowercase).

អក្ខរក្រមភាសាអង់គ្លេសមាន ២៦ តួអក្សរ។ តួអក្សរនីមួយៗមានរាងធំ (Uppercase/អក្សរធំ) និងរាងតូច (Lowercase/អក្សរតូច)។

Vowels & Consonants

Uppercase vs Lowercase

អក្សរធំ និង អក្សរតូច

Art (ធំ) vs art (តូច)

Design (ធំ) vs design (តូច)

When do we use BIG letters (Uppercase)?
1. The first letter of a sentence.
2. Names of people, cities, or brands.
Example: Battambang Studio

(យើងប្រើអក្សរធំនៅដើមប្រយោគ និងសម្រាប់ឈ្មោះមនុស្ស ទីក្រុង ឬឈ្មោះម៉ាកយីហោ។ ឧទាហរណ៍៖ Battambang Studio)

Drawing the Shapes

ការគូសទម្រង់អក្សរ

Think of lowercase letters like cute characters! Some are tall, some are short, and some have tails that hang down.

a c e b d h g j p

Short letters: a, c, e (អក្សរខ្លី)
Tall letters: b, d, h (អក្សរខ្ពស់)
Letters with tails: g, j, p (អក្សរមានកន្ទុយធ្លាក់ចុះក្រោម)

The Mixing Trap! ⚠️

Don't mix big and small!

(កុំសរសេរអក្សរធំលាយអក្សរតូចនៅកណ្តាលពាក្យ!)

Teacher, why does English have big and small letters? Khmer only has one size for letters!

Hello Makara! That's a great question. In English, Capital (Big) letters act like a "stop sign" or a "spotlight". When we see a big letter, it tells our eyes "A new sentence is starting!" or "This is an important name!" It helps make reading faster. 🏃‍♂️💨
