Hi from a fellow bhutanese. I really appreciate your hard work and bringing up informative videos regarding Bhutan. it is really nice when an actual bhutanese makes such video about bhutan, not saying that others aren't nice but its just that bhutanese coming up with such informative videos is rare. wish you the very best and keep going!
@@pankac6438 as it drifts away frm Tibet in time it changes and creates new identity, it’s all part of the greater Tibet. As u can see shadow of greater Tibetan empire in the Himalayan region. We’re all same family.
Your videos are excellent. Sun day is Saturday and Moon day being Sunday .. confusing at first but actually it makes much more sense! Please continue with these excellent videos... perhaps help with shopping ? 'Please show me' 'How much is it?' 'Large' 'Medium' or 'Small' 'I'll take it'. Kadrinche la.
You're too kind, thank you. Yes the sun day and moon day was something i realized while making the video. I'll make a shopping video soon. Thanks for the recommendation 👍🏼
I now have a very good friend named Sangam since visiting Bhutan. Although his English is excellent and we contact one another regularly by email, I should like to wish him the seasons greetings in Dzongha. Please, how would you say Happy New Year?
Very interesting that the days of the week are named after the planets. And sometimes people are named after the day they were born eg. Pasang or Thursday or phurba or Friday. And most twins are named sun and moon or nima and dawa which are also the names for Saturday and Sunday.
Most sources I found state that the months names begin with "chee da" instead of "dawa" in dzongkha. What's exactly the difference between these two? Thanks for you videos, it's hard to find good material for dzongkha :)
Jam Jam, l hope you are staying well and healthy, my question this time is ... 'How do the Bhutanese people feel about non-Bhutanese men visitors wearing the gho?' I hope to travel to Bhutan soon for a conference in Thimphu. I want to wear the gho. I would wear it with respect. How would that be viewed? Would it be welcomed, ridiculed or resented as misappropriation of bhutanese culture? Kadrinche la.
Hi John, it would definitely be appreciated. Many foreigner that visit bhutan try out our national dress. Although i must warn you, the kera or belt can be a bit uncomfortable for first timers. Just don't tie it too tight. Hope you enjoy your trip
Hi Jam Jam. I have been looking for someone who can help me with some words in Dzongkha and how to pronounce them. This is research for a fictional book that I am writing which included Bhutan in the story. Can you help me?
The Dzongkha or Bhutanese language is significantly different from the Ladakhi Bhoti language, making it quite challenging to write due to its abundance of silent pronunciations. The written form of Dzongkha or Bhutanese language poses difficulties due to its numerous silent pronunciations, which contrast with the Ladakhi Bhoti language. This divergence in pronunciation patterns between the two languages adds complexity to the process of writing Dzongkha or Bhutanese.
Actually..... every month has its own name. Just like January and February. 1st months is called Chu Dawa, 2nd month Wo Dawa, Nagpa Dawa 3rd month and Saga Dawa 4th Moth. Please correct your video
