Review Summary

  • Standard Noun/Verb -> Honorific Replacement

Häufige Fehler

Using standard register for royalty is considered very rude. Always switch to Racheasap.

Wrong: ព្រះមហាក្សត្រញ៉ាំអាហារ (The King eats food - using informal 'nham')
Richtig: ព្រះមហាក្សត្រសោយព្រះស្ងោយ (The King eats - using royal 'saoy')

Never use Racheasap for yourself. It is only for others of higher status.

Wrong: ខ្ញុំសោយបាយ (I eat - using royal 'saoy' for self)
Richtig: ខ្ញុំញ៉ាំបាយ (I eat - using standard 'nham')

Different registers exist for royalty vs monks. Do not mix them up.

Wrong: ព្រះមហាក្សត្រនិមន្ត (The King goes - using monk-specific 'nimon')
Richtig: ព្រះមហាក្សត្រយាង (The King goes - using royal 'yeang')
