Exploring a remote Gurung village (after two crazy rides) in Nepal | EP29 

😂😂😂

It's because majority of Gurkha is comprised of the Gurungs so they've come in contact with the Chinese in HK, Malaysia, Singapore etc. Many Gurungs currently reside in HK, UK, Singapore

tbh most ppl know nihao and xie xie

Gurung migrated from mogoliya..it's true.

There is no such thing as "general Nepalese." Every Nepali ethnic group has its own distinct culture from the other. Newars are different from Gurung, Sherpas are different from Chhetri, etc. We are all unique in our own ways. It is not only Gurung that is "different," all Nepali ethnicities are different and that is the beauty of our country🥰

Would be interesting to know if Gurungs eventually do live in sort of a matriarchat? Like Khasi in India and Mosuo in China? They too seemed to have come from Mongolia.

Lama?

Buddhist teaching , training haru greko lama? gumba ma basney? ki chuttai ho

Racism is deadly and sick, as lethal as cancer to world peace. God bless your poisoned heart and mind. God bless you to ensure that nobody will continue to bring evil colonialism like your ancestors did to the world, nobody will spread the Spanish Flu and Black Death to the rest of the world.

sorry to debunk this theory,Gurung people are here in Nepal before there was any tibet back then, as you metioned Songtesn Gampo regain was in 6th century where as gurung people have village older than time perod, there is a village ruins whas was date back to 3000 yesrs and also the tradition and rituals are way older and difrent than tibtians, most of the gurung peole follow animist and spritual religion compared to titians they follow buddism and main important thing although the language falls under tibetian burma family but its completye diffrent than tibetian language. i do not deney genology realtion with tibetian but i suerly deney cultural and linguestic aspect as a part of tibetian i would prefer to call it equall or even older than tebtian culture.

Yes, @@voiceoutpeople7815 ​is correct, Gurung people had arrived in Nepal before there was Tibet. In fact, 'Gurung' people have always identified as 'Tamu' and still do. Only a few hundred years back the Bhramins started calling Tamu people Guru and then it became Gurung, there is a story about this but I won't go in detail here. The word 'Gurung' actually does not exist in Tamu language. Also, it has already been proven Tamu people migrated from Kokonor to Yunnan to Tibet to Nepal thousands of years ago. DNA evidence shows that Tamu people have high degree of Mongolian and Nakhi DNA, and Tibetan (to lesser degree) DNA too. I do admit that the curent Tamu language has been influenced by other languages in the region as well as the Nepali language. Same goes for the Tamu culture and religion. Here is a fun fact: The original Tamu religion (Shamanism) and oral history Tamu Pye is gradually dissappearing, in the future most Tamu will most likely only speak Nepali or English, and they will pick up additional DNA from other groups. Same as how it happened as they migrated from Kokonor to Yunnan to Tibet to Nepal, and even way before that.

Tangting is a very Chinese sounding name. What does tang and ting mean in the local language? I’m curious about linguistic roots of the Tibeto-Burma Chinese language family.

I think sometimes people’s values lag behind the official government policy, especially in more rural places.

the truth in between

Mostly among youngsters, they don’t care about caste a lot. However, still prevalent in the older generations. Also, rural areas are more caste sensitive in comparison to cities. Will still take 1-2 more generations to rid it.

I have been there for a wedding years ago. But definitely will come back to make videos as well :)
