Wednesday, August 27th, 2003 You are cordially invited to attend the following informal presentation: “Mon-Khmer”, What does it mean? Gérard DIFFLOTH Member of the EFEO Mon-Khmer is the name of a family of about 120 related languages, scattered throughout Mainland SEAsia; Khmer is one of them. The Munda family of East-India is a sister-family to Mon-Khmer, forming with it the Austroasiatic phylum. In this short lecture, a few glimpses will be give of Mon-Khmer languages such as Khasi spoken in India, Mon spoken in Burma, Vietnamese, and a few others showing that they are similar and yet quite different from each other and from Khmer, due to thousands of years of independent history.
