1. Basic cases




Note
In the above case, we do not make explicit that the intermediate root ស្កាកត់​ is formed by prefixation of s- onto គាត់. We just mention the ultimate root term.

As a rule, the affixed term should be linked to its closest parent. But very often, CVN- aren't separable into a C- prefix and a -VN- infix, either because the C-prefixed term doesn't exist, or has a different meaning.

Note
In some other cases, the intermediary affixed form doesn't exist or doesn't carry a related meaning. In that case both affixes can be provided at once. Note that CVN- affixes could be construed as compounded C- and -VN- affixes, but one should preferably use the single form CVN- affix instead.

5. Multiword terms




Note
In case where an affix is applied to a double-word term, the affix will be applied to each term.

In the case of reduplication for instance, the entry word could be construed in two ways: either first from affixation then reduplication (អង់​ -​-> បង្អង់​ --> បង្អែរ-បង្អង់), or first from reduplication then affixation (អង់​ -​-> អែរ​-អង់ --> បង្អែរ-បង្អង់). The module opts for the later.

Also, the module doesn't currently support additional comments regarding the non-reduplicated form of the entry word (here បង្អង់). It's up to the editor to add the extra refetence if needed.
