Etimoloji
From Old Khmer mukkhamantri or mukamantriya (“chief minister; prime minister”); ultimately from Sanskrit मुख्यमन्त्रिन् (mukhyamantrin, “chief minister; prime minister”), from मुख्य (mukhya, “chief; first; leading; principal; etc.”) + मन्त्रिन् (mantrin, “conjurer; enchanter; minister; sorcerer; etc.”). Compare Modern Khmer មុខមន្ត្រី (mŭkhmôntrei, “senior government official”).
