About this tool
Vocabulary Flashcards help you learn common Khmer words and phrases through flip cards. You can study in either direction: see Khmer first and guess in English, or see English first and guess in Khmer. Cards are free to use, work on mobile and desktop, and do not require an account. Keyboard shortcuts (arrow keys and space to flip) make review sessions fast and convenient. This tool is useful for learners of Khmer, visitors preparing for a trip to Cambodia, and anyone who wants to build or refresh vocabulary. Audio playback for Khmer and English is available when supported by your device, so you can practice pronunciation as you review.
How it works
Choose the card direction: Khmer first (you guess the English meaning) or English first (you guess the Khmer). Use the flip button or press Space to reveal the other side of the card. Move through the deck with Next and Previous (or arrow keys). Use Shuffle to randomize the order. The tool shows the current card number and total. If your device supports it, use the play buttons to hear Khmer or English pronunciation.
