Did you know that the French language is still widely spoken in Cambodia? It has been there since the country was a French protectorate from 1863 until 1953. The country had an important Francophone population at that time, and French was the main language of instruction in many schools and universities. However, the French language has slowly been replaced by English. Here is a history of Cambodians’ interaction with the foreign language.

Although French is not widely spoken in Cambodia, it was once the main language. When the French arrived in 1863, they established the first missions in the country. This was when the country became part of French Indochina, and the French language took off. After World War II, it was the official state language and continued to be promoted after independence. During the colonial era, the Cambodian government had little use for the French language and only a small percentage of the population spoke it.

Today, there is only one French-language newspaper in Cambodia. It’s called Cambodge Soir, which is a nightly edition of the Cambodian paper. There was another French-language newspaper, Cambodge Nouveau, but it went out of business. In addition, most media in Cambodia have subtitles in French or English. Despite these limitations, the French has had a long and complicated relationship with the Cambodian people.

Despite the lack of French in the country, French remains the dominant language at the National Assembly. Its use is largely related to tourism. The country is famous for its luxurious beaches and French-speaking natives flock there for the sun and sand. So, the question of whether or not the French language is spoken in Cambodia remains an unanswerable one. The answer is yes, although not as widespread as you might think.

The French language has a long and rocky relationship with Cambodia. The country’s most dominant coffee chain is Brown, while French restaurants have a distinctly different flavor. In contrast to Cambodians, French is also the most common language for businesses and education. In addition, the country’s largest foreign company is the country’s third-largest international trade partner. Moreover, Cambodia is one of the few countries where English is the dominant language.

While French has been the official language of Cambodia for more than a century, it has remained little used in Cambodia. But with tourism, the language is widely used, as tourists come to enjoy the luxury of the country’s beaches. In the meantime, the country has become increasingly bilingual, with many languages spoken at one time. The main languages in the country are Chinese, English, and French-speaking. The latter is used for commerce and education.

It’s not uncommon to hear French in Cambodia. Almost 90 percent of the population prefers English and Chinese. The government has increased the cost of education for the French language and French schools have suffered from this. Consequently, there is no need for foreign language students in the country. And most of the French students in Phnom Penh are not native speakers. This is the reason why the country’s culture is so cosmopolitan.

The French language was widely used during the colonial era. In the late 1800s, French merchants first started exploring the region, and in 1887 Cambodia became part of the French Indochina. During World War II, the French language gained a lot of ground in Cambodia. After the war, French became the official language and was incorporated into the national constitution. After the country gained independence in 1953, the government embraced the use of French.

The majority of the population is Cambodian, but there are exceptions. Only one newspaper in France, the Cambodge Soir, which is published in the evening, has been published in the country since the 1970s. It is the dominant coffee chain in Cambodia, and it is easy to understand why French is so popular in this country. This is largely due to the fact that tourism is the main industry in the country, and French people travel to the luxury beaches of Laos and Thailand to spend their vacations there.
