CULINARYGLOSSARY

Most of Phnom Penh’s bars, restaurants and cafés have English menus and the majority of staff speak at least some English. However if you want to use a few words of Khmer to endear yourself to the locals and impress your friends, what better place to begin? Here are a few words and phrases to get you started:

ENGLISH hello (formal) hello (informal) how are you? excuse me I would like chicken pork beef fish rice fried grilled roasted water ice beer red wine white wine cola coffee (hot) coffee (iced) tea milk butter lemon sugar sugar cane juice please thank you the bill please

KHMER chum ree-up soo-a soo-a s’day sok sa bai? som dtoh k’nyom som... sait mowan sait jerook sait gow trei bai cha ang dot tuk sot tuk kork beer srah krohom srah sor coca ka-fei (gdouw) ka-fei (tuk kork) dtai tuk duh goh buuh kroit chhmar skor tuk umpow som or-kuhn som ket loi

(phonetic spellings assembled from various sources - sorry but we can accept no liability for any embarrassment)
