If your ancestors are from Tibet, then why follow islam religion as your main one, don't u respect your ancestors of Buddhism Tibet....come on stop lying 😂 here and there
@@ZakirHussain-yu4nlyes u too converted buddhist😂 have shame on you...rejecting your former religion and choosing to embrace a foreign religion which has no trace of any yours motherland region ( including invading ,quelling and mass-exodus of local Buddhists by these so called turkic Arab islams nomads of sunnis hanafis )
In Lhasa I have noticed that many Tibetans speak both mandarin and Tibetian while the Han Chinese who live there speak only mandarin. I think the Han Chinese who live in tibet should also learn Tibetan.
Thank u it's very informative. I'm from LADAKH we also have different dialect in different region such as changthang, Nubra, sham, kargil, Leh, zanskar,Balti etc I speak in Leh dialect which is the capital of Ladakh and all the different dialect are written in tibetan script.❤from Ladakh or Maryul😊
Hey, I'm from LADAKH (ལ་དྭགས།) India, here when we ask a name of person we say: ཁེ་རི་མིང་ལ་ཅི་ཡིན། but this is an informal way to ask ...if you really wanna use Honorific word then you can say: ངེ་རི་མཚན་ལ་ཅི་བཞུ་ཅེན།😊
You're right. Strangers should be greeted with honorific words. At present, in our daily life, we young people seldom use honorific words, which are only limited to our elders and those who respect us.
@@ohp1749 I am a han Chinese ,I can read ladakh tibetan words ! I can understand what you try to explain ,but in Tibet lhasa people seems don't talk as ངེ་རི་ཚན་ལ་ཅི་བཞུ་ཅེན།, I think they like to say : ཁྱེད་རང་གི་མཚན་ལ་ག་རེ་བཞུ་གི་ཡོད་རེད།
good to see you on RU-vid Wangmo la. Show us beautiful places in Tibet. As a Tibetan living outside Tibet, very much looking forward to seeing our motherland.
Politics is actually quite far from ordinary people. We all feel that life is very good at present. Both the central government and the government of the Tibet Autonomous Region are committed to the development of Tibet and the improvement of the lives of the Tibetan people.
Well I am Tibetan living in exile… From Indian. Both my parent belong to U-Tsang. I am first generation born from my dad side and second generation Tibetan born in India from mom side. We speak closely to U-tsang dialects… Tibetan dialect across India is similar…. People in east and north speak more honourifics term.. were as people from south India speak more informal language. Our dialect and Tibetan in Tibet dialect are very different… so it’s easy to spot the differences wn we talking. To our ears, we hear like their dialect is very raw or rusted… and the way they pronounce the word sound like most of time they given mores stress on top tongue and we can produce similar sound without moving ur lips… And certain dialect stress out Zee , Chee… with every time they speak…. I love how vast our country Tibet is…. Dialect and traditional dress differ from region to region… Diversity and unity at the top of earth. My beautiful Mother land Tibet.
Hello Wangmo, thank you for your introduction to Tibetic languages. I have recently encountered gorshey sessions by dancer Yangkyi & Choetso in Chengdu and it sparked my interest in Gorshey songs as we go to douyin to look for it. Now I understand why my Khampa Tibetan friend needs to read the Tibetan text first to know what the music is about instead of listening to it. Tashi Delek and may your channel grow!
tashi delek! i’m atmika, from india. i am very passionate about language learning, and linguistics. i’ve been learning tibetan for a few months, and i can have a simple basic conversation, and be able to read, and write. i can speak the utsang dialect, and my favourite dialect is amdo dialect. thank you for making this amazing video. keep it up!
I'm also from India and I wish I had the determination to learn the language as my boyfriend is Sherpa and he would be amazed but my lazy ass could bever 😢
wel then, you have to learn the sherpa language, which is similar to tibetan. its easy, you have just to find lessons online and learn the basics through bitesized lessons.
As far as Tibet keeps its uniform Written language, the culture will pass from generations to generations. Dialects also need to be kept instead of replaced by one language. Hope 20 years later Tibet still keeps its written language and dialects.
I’ve learned Amdo for 3 years in Xining. 10 years have passed and i’ve lost most of active language knowledge, but whenever i hear Amdo Tibetan i feel very warm. Especially the nomad language of Golok because my teacher was from there and it’s my favourite pronunciation. It is also close to nomad Kham prononuciation of Dzachuka and Pema Kalsang Rinpoche from Dzogchen who is the root guru of my lama speaks nomad Kham dialect. I also like the sound of most Amdo and Kham dialects however Central Tibetan dialects sound very funny to me for some reason.
■. Pakistan's Tibet is actually in the Baltistan division in Giligit-Baltitstan province. ■. India's Tibet is:- Ladakh, Lahaul and Spiti district regions of Himachal Pradesh ■. China's Tibet:- The main one which one is Tibet( Xizang ) autonomous region, Qinghai province, Garze Tibetan Autonomous prefecture and Ngawa-Qiang Tibetan Autonomous prefecture of western and Northern regions of Sichuan province, Diqing tibetan autonomous prefecture of Northern region of Yunnan province. ■. Nepal's Tibet:- Humla district, Muga district and Dolpa district of Karnali province of Nepal ■. While Bhutan is itself a buddhism which is actually an another little tibet. Bhutan is the only country in the world where there's majority makes the buddhism religion and minority is hindus, jainism, Christianity protestants, and few signs of Sufism sect of the Islam
Great explanation, this is really interesting to learn more about the differences between the 3 Tibetan dialects. Kind regards from the Basque Country.
Hi, I'm from Ladakh (India) and here also we have many balti people, and we have a blood relation with balti people, King Of Ladakh got married to baltistan princess Gal-ka-tun . And Balti language is oldest language among all the Tibetan languages.
@@ohp1749 Ladakh and Baltistan are related to Tibet. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, both regions were Chinese vassal states, and their languages were more similar to Tibetan.
I speak the BODO language (Belongs to Tibeto-Burman). We BODO people live near to Bhutan. Some of our BODO words and numbers sounds similar to Tibetan language
@@wangmoandherfriends5225 Our language falls in Tibeto-Burman. In our Boro/Bodo language we say the numbers as 👇 1 = Se 2 = Nwi 3 = Tham 4 = Brwi 5 = Ba 6 = Do 7 = Sni 8 = Dine 9 = Gu 10 = Zee
@@wangmoandherfriends5225 Bodo while being a Tibeto-Burman language is not actually a Tibetic language and has it's own group "Bodo-Garo" and has evolved separately on it's own while being in contact with other Sino-tibetan as well as Indo-European languages in the region.
If somebody wanna learn Tibetan the best is U-tsang dialect , seriously because most of the Tibetan people all over the world communicate in U-tsang dialect so n it’s much easier and other two provinces can understand too but as a U-tsang boy I don’t understand nthg about Amdo dialect except if I listen carefully then I got it so. But all dialects are beautiful in their own way. I love all our Tibetan brothers and sisters we r all together in this one land called Great Tibet ❤️ #longlivehisholiness 🙏
@@wangmoandherfriends5225 many books for learning tibetan are written with Ü-Tsang dialect, so.. it's very difficult for me too to understand another dialects...Tibetan is really complicated and if I will preoccupate by another dialects I'll never get it))
Tibet was established by Ancient Han Chinese people (Ancient Han Chinese people is Sinotibetan of Qiang, Zangzhong, Kiryati). It was Chinese from first time established. Ancient Chinese has many cluster of Chinese civilization that spread and scattered through China. Last time Tibet is province of Qing Dynasty, Tibet is always be China. No debate for that 😊
In Sherpa it's, "Khyore Min Khang Hyin" And "Khyore Mingla Khang Shiwi" (honorific) Khyore-Your Ming/Min- Name Khang- What Shiwu/Hyin- is?? Equivalent of "हे" in Hindi and "हो" in Nepali
Very well and i appreciated you very much what you have done that explain for Tibetan language. Well, as you know `´ let`s go with together`` song by Phurbu Ti Namgyal and who is living now USA. He was born in India and he is still well known singer in our society and i think his parent came from Central Tibetan (Uzang) as well.
Just wondering, do you know if the "Rgyal wrong (རྒྱལ་རོང་ / 嘉戎語)" language or dialect of the Qiangic language subgroup resembles any of the 3 dialects? Thanks!
So sweet & beautiful language ❤ I belong to Garo community we the garo people are a Tibeto-Burmis ethnic group also Garo language belongs to the Tibeto-Buroman family Sino-Tibetan Tibeto-Burman Central Tibeto-Burman Sal Bodo-Garo Garo Garo (A•chikku) & There's a pre historic about our ancestors, long long time ago we migrated to India from Tibet. You can google about Garo people from Northeast India 😊
I just discovered your channel. I just started learning the Lhasa dialect on my own. I feel very much drawn into Tibetan and Tibetan culture, even though I am very far away. Do you recommend a particular dialect as a gateway into Classical Tibetan and to be able to read Tibetan literature? You show some clips of tv from Tibet, are there any online channels I could watch to listen to this language often?
hi! i’m atmika from india. i’ve been learning tibetan, and i have some reccomendations for you. the best channal to imerce yourself is beri prince. another one is learning basic reading tibetan language. there is a channal, which will help you very much is how to learn tibetan. if you want to know about tibetan news, you can check out tibet tv, and voice of tibet. thank you!

Vernacular language or dialect is important characteristic features of the world.
I really enjoy your video and I'm so thankful cause I felt very confused about differences of tibetan dialects. I think even if I am interested in learn tibetan from other regions, at leats on RU-vid and all over the web the most popular dialect to learn is from U-tsang 😢
Hi, Wangmo! Is there a "Standard" Tibetan dialect that unifies the spoken language? From what I've heard before (and I could absolutely be wrong), the U-Tsang dialect is considered the standard, as it's the one spoken in Lhasa, but how much of that is true?
Hi Wangmo, I'm from Nepal, very close to Kamba & Dingye counties. What Tibetan dialect/s do people speak in these regions. I found the U-Tsang dialect (not sure) a kind similar to my language. I also subscribed to your channel.
First of all, thank you for your attention to my channel. I have no research on Tibetan language. Personally, I think your language should be a branch of ancient Tibetan.
@@wangmoandherfriends5225 Thanks for the response. It means a lot to me/us since I/we have been researching with the purpose to write Himalayan Indigenous history.
Still, many tibetans, especially the old generation, don't understand Chinses needless to mention English. So when they don't understand other tibetan dialects, they try their best to communicate with each other, yet always only in Tibetan as at the end of the day, we share the same language. This has been the way in the past for centries as back then nobody knew Chinese in Tibet.
yeah ,the Tibetan Chinese elders still can't understand Chinese language ,actually I am shocked when I meet with some Tibetan Chinese villagers in their 30's who don't understand Chinese at all .but things changed totally in Tibet ,all the young Tibetan people can understand and speak Mandarin fluently& perfectly .now it's more like a joke for a young Tibetan Chinese need a translator to understand Mandarin in Tibet .their country is China ,speak a good Mandarin can help their future in China .
@@etiloyon3681 all I told you is true in Tibet .in Tibet no Tibetan Chinese youth ,under 30s, can't understand Mandarin .if you happen to be a young Tibetan and come to Tibet ,but you can't understand one single word of Mandarin ,you are hero .
You have missed balti language, which is spoken in major part of Gilgit Baltistan, Pakistan, which were used to a part of tibet dynasty once upon a time. For example; What is your name? We say; Yari mintakh po cheen? For Rice, we use " bras" For water, "sho " For Fire 🔥, "me" For mother, "Amo " For father," ataa"
Interestingly, Balti preserves the actual classical Tibetan language. The things are spelled the way they are written. This feature gradually diminishes eastwards. This might explain why I can read whole Tibetan book without spelling it properly.
Nice information 👍 I have a question what do you guys keep in the bowls which are placed behind you? I have seen such bowls in some Buddhist shrines, but was unable to make out what they contain ?😊
Amazing, so experts are right tht balti spoken in north Pakistan resembles v much with amdo. We say ཁྱོད་ཀྱེ་མིང.ལ་ཅེ.ཟེར་རད་། khyod Kyi ming la chi zer red...we pronounce exactly as what is written
Grammar is same. Amdo and Kham are incorporated into Chinese province of Qinghai, Sichuan, Yunan and Gansu. Only a portion of Kham is in Tibet Autonomous Region. In addition to Amdo, Kham and Utsang there is also Thoe Ngari which lies along the border of Himalaya. There language is more archaic than Utsang which has undergone changes. The language used in Ngari is similar to spoken language from 11AD to 15AD. These can be ascertained from the Tibetan literatures written from the days of Milarepa and Tsang Ngon Heruka of 15AD.
Thank you for sharing! It's very helpful😊👍☕❤️It's true bcz many my other foreigner friends who are learning Tibetan asking abt it and some of them struggle with which dialect they should choose and learn...
I think tibetan should try to speak in tibetan in lhasa instead of mandarin and English. It can help us invent tibetan that can be understood across all Tibet
བཀྲ་ཤིས་བདེ་ལེགས Wow, 才女也. I thought you were from Canada or some other English speaking countries. I am amazed to know that you have not been out of country yet can speak perfect English, just as when i first time back to my home town after living overseas for a couple years, i thought i went to a wrong place or in a dream, everything was transformed and far exceeded my imagination. When i was at junior high, my English teacher pronounced the same word differently each time (it was not hard to figure out she did not know English beyond ABC but my school could not find any one better). I was among the wave of students in late 90 early 2000s went US to pursue Doctoral education, i have not encountered any one in this group (be my classmate, friend or colleague) who speaks English without obvious accent, i suspect that their earlier English teachers might not be much better than mine then. The first time i saw a foreigner and listened to a native person speaking English was in my sophomore and we had to fight for it - there was a young college student from American to teach a summer course in English department in our university to earn some money for traveling in China. We were so excited, i am not sure the excitement was from the zealous about learning English or just wanted to see a foreign young lady (洋妞)， when she entered the filled auditorium, a fight broken out, students fighting for the first row seats…
I m from India northeast,we northeastern people were migrated from China and we mising tribe migrated from Tibet ..we speak sino Tibetan language...can you please show us our ancestors from Tibet ..I want to visit Tibet .. because I don't want to consider myself as indian
I speak Mandarin Chinese, the first recording sounded like a Central Asian Language, the other two sounded the same to me, and they sounded like Mandarin but I couldn't understand it.
Whenever I see Tibetan, it reminds me of a Tibetan girls name Dolma. Though I cannot see her, I know that from her letter that she's a beautiful girl. Though I cannot see her face to face, I'll always remember her even after many years have passed.😃😃👍👍
I visited the golden temple in india today and there were many mantras written on the walls of the paintings but I coudnt get to work it on the Google translate :(
All three dialects sounds beautiful. But I largely heard UTsang dialect. In sikkim we say " choe ke ming ghan bo?" If ask in honorific way than " tshen ghan shudo la"
We all accept that Tibet is a part of China. The fact is that The United Nations, the United States, Russia, India, England, Germany, France and other countries in the world all agree it, and so does the Dalai Lama.
@@wangmoandherfriends5225 you don’t know Tibet story so think like That བོད་ནི་རང་དབང་གཙང་མི་རྒྱལ་ཁབ་ཅིག་རེད། ད་ལྟར་རྒྱ་ནག་གི་བཙན་འཛུལ་འོག་ཏུ་གནད་ཡོད་རེད།
@@kunsang5 I don't want to talk about politics. You are willing to trust the United States as their tool; We recognize China and accept the help from the government and sister provinces and cities.
@@kunsang5 I am a han Chinese who can understand tibetan language .Tibet is the 6 million tibetan Chinese's home .tibetan Chinese are smart ,work hard ,everywhere in Tibet is so developed organized beautiful ,the per capita GDP of Tibet is over 10000 dollars ,tibetan Chinese brothers and sisters really have done a great job !
