It seems to me that in Thailand, everybody was taughtt or influence that Khmer and Khom is different kind of people because they cannot accept the fact that their culture and traditions all derived from Khmer. That is why they try to disconnect us from everything that was influence in there cultures. ITS A PROPAGANDA of there government for their people to look down on modern day Khmers that we are not the ancestors of there great masters, of there great influences.
Thank you Preahko for posting this vid. It's interesting that the Khmers in Surin believe in the same line as Thais in regards to the Khom script or Khom people. Thais believe that the Khom people built the city of Angkor and trying to discredit the ancient Khmer. One thing I'd like to see you do research or a video on is on the fighting arts of southeast asia. Such as a comparison of Kun Khmer - Pradal Serey - Bokator and Thailand's Muay Thai...The origin of this art is still a heated debate.
ahhh great. Thanks a lot for the info Frank, and the patience! haha. i've always been interested in Khmer but my learning tools are limited to a conversational book and dictionary i got from Siem Reap last year. Hopefully I'll be in Srok Khmer at the end of the year and I'll be able to get your book then! =)
Knom mean Khmer( not under or below) here i took this sentence from thai website called sak-yant(.) com : The lettering is Pali Sanskrit using ancient Khmer letters, called "agkara Khom" (Khom meaning Khmer).
You got me wrong. What I said means that many of us Khmer are stuck in the past. We like to talk about how great we were. Sure, we were but the problem is not hiding from your great past but to look further, to try to equalize or even top what our ancestors had achieved. Why don't Khmer realize that? It's like everyone is satisfied with what the ancestors had done and it's like they don't feel like making a great Khmer land possible in the present day. You get what I'm saying?
the monk he said that thai called khmer alphabet that "khom" yes , thai called "khom" it's means about "Khmer ancient" and now still called "khom" but some thai people they want to separate "khmer " and "khom" are not same race .
@AK47KHMER not really not all younger generations like wat u just said , my brother born here and he learn and speak khmer very good, he read khmer very well too
It is hard to say anything when you live in your house and have to follow somebody else's rules. this is the case that happening to khmers surin, and khmers krom. also khmers laos. God please help khmersss.
From my understanding, "Khom" or Mon is the first group of people that lived in Indochina. They are the first Khmer or the origin of Khmer. Under the Great Khmer King, he united the majority Mon or Khom and created the Khmer Empire. The remaining Khom became Thai and Burmese. Khmer came from Khom but Thai don't want to credit Khmer so they refer back to the Khom language and not Khmer. I guess they don't want to people to know that they were once under Khmer or barrow it from Khmer.
The leader monk cant face the fact that khorm is khmer. Khmer becomes Khorm in thai language, becase in translation the subsript, an element not in the thai written language gets lost and placed the end. He has been conditioned by thailands nation building scheme for his whole life. Denying the truth is far less painful than acepting it. I don't blame, he is just another victim of thailand's institute of diluson.
If you were born from the blood of Khmer Mon civilizations you have to learn how to speak and reading in Khmer 's language. Thai or Tai or Siam had copied the Khmer culture after Khmer Empire collapsed in 1431AD .Obviously, They(Thai) had nothing about that ok.
this information is wrong. ah saw khom is also from Buddhist scrip like Sanskrit, however ah saw khom is what we see in our stone walls (not many can read). and the ones we use today on sak yon are Sanskrit aka ah saw balei which are powerful. its the way its written/read. however it's not ah saw khom. the akara generated and belongs to Khmer.
"Khom" = Khrom (in Khmer) and = below or underneath (in English). Example- Khang khom = khang khrom( in clear Khmer) = below or under( in English ). Neak Phnom Penh don't like to speak clear Khmer, so they say- khang khom(khang khrom= below or underneath); sey sey= srey srey( female); khang khom Surin = Khang khrom Surin = below or underneath Surin= Srok Khmer...think in your brain.
I see. You mean even the part when the interviewer is walking about looking at the temple, he is speaking Khmer Surin to the camera? Are the two mutually intelligible?
"We Khmer like to fantasize about how great Khmer once was. We like to talk about how Thai stole this and that from us." I agree w. you, and this point of view just generates hatred btw these 2 people. I've been to Thailand and Cambodia 3 times, both countries have stupid and clever people. In my opinion, both countries have many things in commun, we should learn to share it instead of saying who stole this and that.
2)That being said, Cambodia has a long way to go in term of equality and freedom. But at least we got out of a very big mess, don't you agree? Give it time. Don't rush it so irrationally like the SRP people who can't open their mouths without comparing Cambodia to America or some Western nations. Do they even realize how long it took America to be where it is at today? Pretty long if you know America's history, killing Indians, slavery, racism, etc... Give Cambodia time and it will be fine.
1) Not with its current state? You mean the people that run the government? If so, let me say that if it wasn't for this CPP controlled government, we wouldn't have political stability and peace, buddy. Criticize them for whatever you like but realize that CPP ended the Khmer Rouge under the banner of national reconciliation and forgiveness. That's how the last of the Khmer Rouge surrendered and reintegrated back into normal Khmer life.
Khorm mean that Khmer-Morn . The both Khmer-Morn are the same nation and have the same bloods .We the oldest Nation in Southwest Asia,but now Morn live in Myanmar or Phumear they lose their land by Phumear or Burma . and Khmer lose some lands by Siam or Tai , Lao and Youn or Vietnam .Thai always cheat to the world that Khmer languages belong to Khorm . maybe they dont known that Khmer and Morn are Khorm .
"unless we politely ask for our land back like surin and north vietnam." You make me laugh, dude. you need to learn real history and stop dreaming like some Khmer people who still think Khmer Surin or Khmer Krom will be back. Stop trying to do the unattainable and do the attainable one instead, ok? Let's just try to preserve and protect what Khmer have left instead of dreaming about getting back Surin or Khmer Krom huh?
Even the foreigner as the referent to Cambodia as the ancient racing here .

Siam try so hard..Khom is an excuse they used to eliminate crediting the Khmer..Duh 😅😂😅😂they can't fool us..

Muay is a Khmer word not even Thai. Muay is the number one in khmer

Surin was Khmer Leu, Cambodia was middle Khmer, Kapuchea krom was Khmer Krom

just wondering what language it was that the monk at the end of the video was speaking... it doesn't sound like standard khmer or thai!
The leader monk cant face the fact that khorm is khmer. Khmer becomes Khorm in thai language, becase in translation the subsript, an element not in the thai written language gets lost and placed the end.
He has been conditioned by thailands nation building scheme for his whole life. Denying the truth is far less painful than acepting it. I don't blame, he is just another victim of thailand's institute of diluson.

Are the two mutually intelligible?
I think you should call Preah Sorng, Not Lok Sorng ! Preah Sorng shows polite way. ព្រះសង្ឃជាពាក្យពិរោះស្តាប់ជាងលោកសង្ឃ។
Khmer is still alive, not Thai or vietnam or laos can take that away
"We Khmer like to fantasize about how great Khmer once was. We like to talk about how Thai stole this and that from us."

Learn your speaking again by respect.
2)That being said, Cambodia has a long way to go in term of equality and freedom. But at least we got out of a very big mess, don't you agree? Give it time.

@preahko and also i think someone hacked my account. I was watching ufo videos 3 hrs ago. hahaha

Khmer Surin should know about this: the word KOM means Khmer and Mon ok. Thank you.
"unless we politely ask for our land back like surin and north vietnam."
