Purpose

Since the Pali-Khmer Dictionary is not yet abundant, We want to contribute to the richness of the Pali-Khmer dictionary full of more and more new words, and because the Pali language is constantly containing in tipitaka, commentary and sub-commentary, we want to use all the strength, wisdom, and knowledge we have to value the new shoots and buds of Pali language as much as we can, but regarding the orthography, we respect the orthography of the dictionary of Preahgrūsirisobhana Kim Tor by carefully considering and resuming the pattern according to this orthography to register the new words as well.

We want Cambodia to have a wide range of small and large Pali-Dictionaries to meet different needs, as is the case in Buddhist Countries like Sri Lanka and Burma, Where there are dictionaries for high school students, university students, the ordinary public, and the highly educated public, all of whom need to verify the meaning of hundreds of thousands of words ( both simple words and a lot of deep words ) for each skill.
