Today, I would like to explain you a new vocabulary in Khmer language. You will often hear people say this word in talking about some different situation. The word អូសក្រឡា in international reading sign Ous Kror La.
The word Ous Kror La general means persuading someone or try to make someone know and believe in you. But it also means more than this due to the situation. It can mean that some one tries to talk round to find a chance for showing him or her about that own person's feeling, or thinking. Sometime, person who is talked to may know the purpose of the first person (he/she) wants to talk and show about, but he or she just pretends not to know at all. Now look the situation a man try អូសក្រលា （persuade or woo) a girl.
A couple just know each other only a few days ago. Today they to visit the riverbank to see fireworks. Then the firework explosive very beautiful bright. Then boy and girl look into the sky.
Boy : Hey, look! That's awesome light.
Girl : Wow, what beautiful firework
Boy : Yes, it is. Do you like firework? (He tries to test girl's feeling)
Girl : Yes, I really do.
Boy : Oh, My God! How we have same favorite!
Girl : When I see this beautiful firework, I feel like to live at paradise.
Boy : Anyway, light of firework is as beautiful as your beauty.
Girl : Oh, really? Thanks.
Boy : Yours is more beautiful than that, cutie.
The way that boy tries to use in talking to the girl means He tries to Ous Kror La that girls. It means she is persuaded or wooed by that guy.
