The Khmer script has 33 consonants and 23 vowels, and is written from left to right with no spaces between words. Khmer is written with an abugida script, which means that each consonant has an inherent vowel that can be modified by diacritics.
It is also spoken in Vietnam, Thailand, and Laos by minority groups. Khmer is the official language of Cambodia, spoken by about 16 million people.
