معنی
Experiencing high levels of anger.
زمینه فرهنگی
Public anger is seen as a loss of 'face'. Even if someone says they are 'khəng khlang', they may still try to smile to mask the intensity. On social media, 'khəng khlang' is often paired with the 'pouting face' emoji 😡 or 'face with steam from nose' 😤 to show trendy frustration. Anger is often described as 'fire' (Phleung). 'Khəng khlang' is the modern equivalent of having a fire in one's heart. If a boss says they are 'khəng khlang', it is a very serious warning. Employees will usually become very quiet and apologetic immediately.
Add 'Nah'
Add 'ណាស់' (nah) at the end to sound more natural when speaking: 'Khəng khlang nah!'
Watch your tone
Even though Khmer isn't tonal, saying this with a loud voice is considered very rude. Keep your volume moderate.
