Book Description
Tashi Daknewa was one of LTWA’s resident Tibetan language teachers and with twelve years classroom experience, as well as a one-year sabbatical teaching and studying in the USA, he has developed a keen awareness of students’ needs. Through diligently noting the many and various questions he has been asked over the years, as well as the answers he gave, he has been able to compile this book, which illustrates Tibetan grammar from a quite fresh perspective. What he has tried to do is to address the problems that occur in students’ minds when initially presented with Tibetan grammar in the traditional way.

Book Description
Classical Tibetan, with origins dating to the seventh century, is the language found in a huge corpus of surviving Tibetan, mostly Buddhist, texts; native Tibetans still employ this language, today, when writing on religious, medical or historical subjects. This book aims to provide a rapid introduction to the main elements of Classical Tibetan, so that students may begin to access for themselves the vast amount of available material. While designed for guided study, the book will also be of use to those who tackle the language on their own. Steady study over approximately six months should result in an understanding of most grammatical features and allow the student to read the simpler prose texts.

Book Description
Welcome to the Heart of Tibetan Language! With this innovative course book, there is no need to re-learn English grammar in order to study a foreign language. Instead, you will learn to speak the language by discovering the way Tibetans think, through the heart of the Tibetan language.Can you imagine a language in which letters have their own genders? In Tibetan, speaking to certain people, and even about sacred places and buildings, requires special honorific terminology. Not only that, but an auxiliary form is used to indicate whether the speaker has direct experience of what is being said! Do you wonder how you will learn to use the all-pervasive notions of "Self and Other" (¿¿¿ & ¿¿¿¿ bdag & gzhan/), volitional and non-volitional verbs (¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ & ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ byed 'brel las tshig & byed med las tshig/), and so much more? Franziska Oertle's novel approach, introduces you to the indigenous notions, logic and categorizations used by Tibetans themselves,combining them with a student-centered, contemporary learning methodology.Exploring these concepts may seem a bit challenging at first. But rest assured, the presentation is fascinating and engaging. This is a most effective way for learners to gain a deep understanding of the Tibetan mindset. The Heart of Tibetan Language may just change how you view yourself and the world, as you learn the basics of how to communicate in colloquial Tibetan.
