Offline Khmer Japanese dictionary: 11,000 words, phrasebook, romaji, camera
Look up any Khmer or Japanese word in one second - even with no internet.
Khmer Japanese Translator is built for Cambodians living, working and studying
in Japan, and for Japanese speakers learning Khmer. Everything you need most
often works offline, because the moment you need a word is rarely the moment
you have a signal.
WORKS WITHOUT INTERNET
Over 11,000 Khmer-Japanese word pairs are stored inside the app. Search on a
construction site, in a factory dormitory, on the train, or on a plane. The
dictionary, the phrasebook and the kana lessons never need a connection.
READ JAPANESE WITH YOUR CAMERA
Point your phone at a notice, a menu, a pay slip or a train sign. Japanese
text is recognised on your device and looked up straight away.
TRANSLATE FROM ANY APP
Select Japanese text anywhere - a message, a website, a PDF - and tap
Translate. No copying, no switching back and forth.
PHRASEBOOK FOR REAL SITUATIONS
237 ready-made phrases across 14 categories, each with romaji so you can say
it out loud:
Greetings, Restaurant, Shopping, Transportation, Hotel, Emergency, Work,
Bank & Post, City Hall & Visa, Study, Numbers & Time, Daily Life,
Sightseeing, Business.
Work covers instructions, overtime and calling in sick. Bank & Post covers
sending money home. City Hall & Visa covers your residence card, national
health insurance and asking for an interpreter. These are the conversations
that actually happen.
ROMAJI ON EVERY WORD
Japanese written in Latin letters, so you can read it aloud before you can
read kana. Hiragana and katakana work immediately. For kanji readings, a small
optional module can be downloaded once from Settings - it is not part of the
install, so the app stays light for everyone who does not need it.
LEARN A LITTLE EVERY DAY
- Word of the day: 365 words with an example sentence, one per day, with no
repeats in a year
- A daily notification and a home screen widget, so it finds you
- All 92 hiragana and katakana characters with example words
- Kana quiz with a streak counter that rewards coming back

Khmer voice installed

FREE, WITH NO SUBSCRIPTION
The app is free and supported by ads. There is no subscription and no in-app
purchase of any kind. If the ads get in your way, watch one short video and
the app goes completely ad-free for two hours.
An internet connection is only needed for machine translation of full
sentences. Word lookup, phrases and kana always work offline.
