Now, beginning with the \u003ci\u003eEnglish-Khmer Dictionary\u003c\/i\u003e in 1978, Huffman has turned his attention to the needs of Khmer refugees in America and Europe and in camps in Southeast Asia. \u003ci\u003eEnglish for Speakers of Khmer\u003c\/i\u003e will be to them an essential resource for acquiring competence in English. \u003cbr\u003e 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. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eFranklin E.
