The leading American specialist in Khmer language studies, Franklin
Huffman, in collaboration with Im Proum, has since 1970 produced a
distinguished series of aids to the teaching of Khmer. Now,
beginning with the English-Khmer Dictionary in 1978, Huffman has
turned his attention to the needs of Khmer refugees in America and
Europe and in camps in Southeast Asia. English for Speakers of
Khmer will be to them an essential resource for acquiring
competence in English. In his introduction, Huffman includes a
section addressed to the English teacher, providing background on
the Khmer and describing the aims of the book and the principles of
contrastive analysis; a section in English and Khmer on the format
of the book and how to use it; an explanation of the Khmer and
romanized phonetic transcription systems developed by Huffman; and
a section on English spelling for the student. The fifteen lessons
that follow are based on practical, everyday situations: a typical
lesson provides model sentences in dialog form, Khmer pronunciation
for the teacher, pronunciation drills, grammar notes and drills,
and model conversations in both English and Khmer. An English-Khmer
glossary, an index of pronunciation drills, and an index of grammar
notes complete the book. Franklin E. Huffman is professor of
linguistics and Asian studies at Cornell University. Im Proum is
currently doing research in Southeast Asia.
