The difference between copying numbers and participation

"Copy the number to Cambodia" and "engagement" are under the same level of "marriage process", but there are some differences between them.

"Copy the number to Cambodia" means that the woman chooses an auspicious day, the central matchmaker goes to the man's house with an invitation, and the man accepts the invitation and gift, gives a banquet to entertain the matchmaker and returns with shoes, socks, hats and towels.

"Engagement" is a necessary procedure before marriage, which is close to marriage.

Generally speaking, "copying the number to Cambodia" and "engagement" are both premarital ceremonies, but "engagement" is more advanced and closer to marriage.
