Kamlang Phiasaa: Khmer Heritage Textbook


UPDATE: January 17, 2012. Please read before ordering!
Both Textbooks are currently in stock and ready to ship. The price of each textbook is $70 USD, including DVD. The price of (UPS Ground) shipping in the continental US is included in the price of each Textbook.

My next trip to Bangkok during which I can hand-deliver Textbooks there is early May, 2012. My next trip to Phnom Penh will also be in May, 2012. If you're in Bangkok or Phnom Penh and wish to avoid the international shipping charge, go ahead and order with the understanding that you won't receive your book until the dates listed above.

Folks who live anywhere in the world (Canada, Europe, Australia, etc.) besides the continental US (Hawaii and Alaska are not included in the continental US!) should contact me by e-mail before you order a book, so I can tell you how much you need to pay for shipping. International shipping will be done by US Postal Service, and I will split the cost of shipping 50/50 with you. E-mail me for details).

This is the textbook we use for the Intermediate and Advanced classes at SEASSI and the University of California-Berkeley. It's especially geared toward Heritage students (people of Khmer descent who grew up in the West speaking Khmer but never learned to read or write it) but also appropriate for non-natives and Heritage speakers alike who have attained a "survival" level of Khmer speaking proficiency and have already mastered the basics of reading and writing.
