help! I cant see the Khmer numrals! My computer can display the japanese, russian, greek, etc. Wikipedias no problem, but for this article I see a whole bunch of little boxes. Numerao 19:56, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

You need a Khmer Unicode font and a recent version of Uniscribe. Go to http://www.khmeros.info/drupal/ for more info. --Dara 13:31, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Title

Strictly speaking, these are not Khmer numerals: they're Khmer numbers. A numeral is the written symbol used to represent a number. PiCo 15:39, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pronunciation

The pronunciation section doesnt use IPA - some of the numbers have IPA pronunciation on the main khmer language page, but the rest would require a speaker/expert to fill in... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.138.218.196 (talk) 20:48, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

I entirely agree with you. I took the liberty of transfering the IPA from the Khmer language#Numbers section into this article, whereas I had to look up the rest for approximate pronunciation from another website, and edit it according to Khmer language#Phonology. There are inevitably dialectal differences in pronunciation, but at least it's a good start. - Io Katai (talk) 03:51, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
