En linguistique historique, Môn-Khmer désigne une famille de langues apparentées qui comprend, en plus du Khmer et du Môn, environ 120 langues réparties de l’Assam au Yunnan et vers le Sud jusqu’en Malaisie. Elles constituent 12 branches historiques, dont 4 sont représentées au Cambodge. De nombreux exemples seront donnés, en soulignant ce qu’ils impliquent pour la protohistoire de la région. The term Mon-Khmer is widely used, but often without a clear notion of what it precisely refers to. From the point of view of historical linguistics, Mon-Khmer is a family of related languages which includes, besides Khmer and Mon, about 120 languages ranging from Assam to Yunnan, and all the way South to Malaysia. They form 12 historical branches, 4 of which are represented in Cambodia. Many examples will be provided, and implications for the proto-history of the region will be suggested. Le professeur G.
