Review Summary

  • Subject + នឹង (neung) + Verb

Errores comunes

You placed 'neung' after the verb. In Khmer, the future marker must come before the action.

Wrong: ខ្ញុំទៅនឹងផ្សារ
Correcto: ខ្ញុំនឹងទៅផ្សារ

You forgot the verb! 'Neung' needs an action verb to follow it.

Wrong: ខ្ញុំនឹងអាហារ
Correcto: ខ្ញុំនឹងញ៉ាំអាហារ

While understandable, it lacks the specific future intent marker 'neung' which makes your plan clear.

Wrong: ថ្ងៃស្អែក ខ្ញុំទៅ
Correcto: ថ្ងៃស្អែក ខ្ញុំនឹងទៅ
