Going on a journey.
خلفية ثقافية
During the Pchum Ben festival, 'ធ្វើដំណើរ' becomes a national theme as people return to their pagodas and families. The 'journey' (ដំណើរ) is often used as a metaphor for the path to enlightenment (Dharma). Khmer youth use 'ធ្វើដំណើរ' in TikTok captions to show off their 'wanderlust' or road trips to places like Mondulkiri. State visits are always described using this phrase to denote the dignity of the movement.
Use it for safety
Always use 'ធ្វើដំណើរដោយសុវត្ថិភាព' when saying goodbye to someone going on a trip. It's very polite.
Don't use for walking
If you are walking to the store, just say 'ដើរ' (der). 'ធ្វើដំណើរ' is too big for that.
