Description

This text assumes no prior knowledge of Tibetan, begins by introducing the Tibetan alphabet and its phonetic system, and follows by presenting dialogues and texts of increasing sophistication that reflect Amdo Tibetan lives in the late-20th century. There are 40 lessons in three units, with drills, notes, exercises, and extensive appendices.
