Complete Traditional Grammar Course
Explanations in English of the commentary of the 30 verses on Tibetan grammar by Thönmi Sambhoṭa - ཐོན་མི་སམྦྷོ་ཊ་. Thönmi Sambhota is regarded in history as the inventor of Tibetan script in the 7th century. The root text this course follows is the སུམ་ཅུ་པའི་སྙིང་པོ་ལེགས་བཤད་ལྗོན་པའི་དབང་པོ་ཞེས་བྱ་བ། - an extremely well-known text studied by Tibetans in schools and monasteries. Most Tibetans will have even memorised the text prior to studying its meaning.
Each topic presented include at least one lecture. Most have two lectures and a quiz. All the most important grammar points are included here based on a text written more than a thousand years ago, when the written language was codified by Thönmi.
You can learn the different grammar topics independently or linearly, according to your needs. Coming back to reread some of the topics introduced here might be needed during your studied of the language, and thus buying this course offers you a lifelong access.
All the topics are explained in English, with examples, definitions and exercises in Tibetan. The course has over 30 separate lectures and aims to be as comprehensive and useful as possible - feel free to contact me if you have questions.
All the best in your studies of this amazing language,
Adelaide
