It is good if we have digital dictionary in your web. Can you put it?
Where is the new book avaible to buy?
It is avaible at in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Or contact institute of National Language in Royal Academy of Cambodia.
The Institute of Natioanal Language, Royal Academy of Cambodia urgently needs the fund from any donation because we already have done on Khmer Language Programme and we have not enough to work on it; we should move forward to working on the other languages: the ethnic minority languages of Cambodia. However, we need immediately to unite the Khmer language first before we try to work on the other programme. In addition, without the Dictionary of Khmre publised by the Institute of Buddhist we could not expand our programme on the Dictionary of Orthographic Khmer language.
This is my view on Khmer language.
