Describing low temperature or weather.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The 'Cold Season' is a time for weddings and festivals because the weather is 'trachak sruol' (pleasantly cool), making outdoor celebrations possible. Coolness is a metaphor for Nirvana. The heat of 'Kilesa' (passions) is cooled by the 'water' of wisdom. Offering a 'trachak' drink to a guest is the first rule of hospitality in a Khmer home to help them 'cool down' from the journey. Cambodians categorize foods into 'hot' and 'cold'. 'Trachak' foods are thought to balance the body's internal heat.
The AC Rule
In Cambodia, if you are in a public place and it's too cold, saying 'trachak nah' to a staff member is a polite hint to turn it down.
Body Temperature
Avoid saying 'Khnhom trachak' unless you want people to check if you still have a pulse!

Add 'Menn-taen'

Blessings
When an elder says 'trachak trojum' to you, just smile and say 'Orkun' (Thank you). It's a beautiful blessing.
