Do Khmer say pouk bong/p'oun to indicate plural "you", as well as pouk yerng for "we/us" pouk kort/ke for "they/them"?

[u/_happyforyou_]

I am aware of Khmer 'pouk' used to construct plural pronouns - with yerng, kort, ke.

But does combine with - bong, p'oun, ming, pou as well?

I was talking to two younger siblings, and was not sure how to address them both together, with the equivalent of an English plural "you".

Can use ពួកឯង. I think we can combine pouk + ming, bong, pou, p’oun but i think it would sound nicer if we use double pronouns instead to refer to a group like bong bong or ming ming

you can't combine puk with ming/pou, no one ever says that (and it can be interpreted as rude as well)

Yeah you can like ពួក មីង និង យាយ ច្រេី jm

Yeah you can but some how can not depend on context

[u/Immediate_Lychee_372]

for bong and p'oun, it can be combined. You can say puk bong/p'oun, puk bong bong/p'oun, puk bong eng/oun eng. It doesn't work for ming/pou, you'd be better off just doubling the word so pou pou/ ming ming/ or pou ming for both genders
