Khmer Alphabet - Lesson 2: Khmer Vowel - Part 2

 After the first let's get into the next part!

Again, for pronunciation accuracy you may use the youtube or gogole translate!

Now let's begin the part 2!

6.ើ (ER↘ )

ER↘ | ER↗ (*when combined with "OR" consonant, ើ is basically turned to ឺ)

  • ក +ើ = កើ (KER)
  • ម+ើ=​ មើ (MER/MIR)
7.ឿ (EUR↘)
8.​ៀ (EAR)
9.េ (E/EH)

The pronunciation of the three vowel above from 7-9 will not be changed no matter if it is spelled by "AW" or "OR" consonant.

Example: 
- កឿ / គឿ = KEUR
- ដៀ/ឌៀ = DEAR
- ខេ/ឃេ = KHE

10.ែ  (AE)​ *cambodian mostly romanized it as "er" however it is pronounce as "ae".

AE | AIR
Example: កែ (Kae) | ទែ (TAIR)

11.ៃ (AI)
AI | EI

Example: បៃ (BAI) | ពៃ (PEI)
