The 'Sampeah' gesture (palms together) is often used when saying 'Sâmnang L'â' to someone older to show respect. During Lunar New Year, 'Heng Heng' is preferred over 'Sâmnang L'â' as it specifically denotes wealth and prosperity. Before the 'Bac II' national exam, students often visit pagodas to pray for 'Sâmnang L'â'. In Telegram chats, Cambodians often use stickers of cats or lucky charms with the text 'សំណាងល្អ'.
