意味
Living in poverty.
文化的背景
Poverty is often discussed with a sense of 'Karna' (compassion). Using 'ក្រលំបាក' shows that you recognize the person's suffering, which is seen as more polite than just calling them 'poor'. Many classic novels, like 'Sophat', feature protagonists from 'ក្រលំបាក' backgrounds who eventually succeed through merit and hard work. Donating to those who are 'ក្រលំបាក' is a primary way for laypeople to 'make merit' (ធ្វើបុណ្យ). On Cambodian Facebook, 'ក្រលំបាក' is a keyword used in viral charity posts to attract donors and sympathy.
Use with Empathy

Word Order
Never swap the words. 'Lombak Kro' is not a phrase and will confuse listeners.
