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.
good to see you on TH-cam 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.
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😊

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.

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!
That's an insightful question. Rgyalrong languages sound like the Southern Pastoral Amdo Tibetan, hereafter SPAT, spoken in Ganzi Prefecture of Sichuan, to an average-untrained ear. Reasons being that both groups have retained many initial consonant clusters, and can be none tonal. Also, they share many colloquial terms unique to their region. Interestingly enough, SPAT is also the lingua franca (and used in schools) within part of the Rgyalrong community (others use Southwestern Mandarin). On the other hand, the SPATs used in the periphery of the Rgyalrong people, and in Sertar, Zhaggo and Dawu, are more conversative than the standard Amdo Tibetan of Qinghai province, e.g. the consonant clusters are pronounced closer to the spelling without tendency of reduction, and preservation of final consonant to a greater extent. This could be due to the buffering effect from the mountainous landform and from the archaic Rgyalrong languages. Just a brief explanation. Amdo Tibetan is further categorized into 4 groupings, different mainly in phonology and vocabulary: Northern(Qinghai & Gansu), Southern(Sichuan), Pastoral and Agricultural. Mutual intelligibility is low between Pastoral and Agricultural. The level of conservativeness is Southern > Northern; Pastoral > Agricultural, hence SP>NP≥ SA>NA. The standard Amdo Tibetan used in media is of NP, and some of the Agricultural ones are so not conservative that they are scoffingly deemed Khams Tibetan.
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 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.
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?
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.
Balti is the dialect of tibeto burman language commonly spoken in Baltisatan region of Pakistan and it still has lot of similarities with tibetian language
I am a han Chinese who can understand tibetan .it is interesting that I can understand almost 80% Dzongka website ,but when I listen to the Bhutanese speaking Dzongka,I can only get 30% the meaning 😂.maybe I never been to Bhutan ,if I try to live in Bhutan for a while ,and study hard, perhaps I can understand more about their talking .
@@Hulaloopops3i9s it is interesting .I am a han Chinese ,actually Chinese language has a lot of dialects too ,for example the people in Beijing can't understand what the locals in HongKong speak .when Tibetan in lhasa listen to Bhutanese speak ,perhaps he can guess 20~40% if he has never met with Bhutanese before ,but a people in Beijing listen to HongKong dialect ,10%，Shanghainese ,15%, Taiwanese dialect ,5~0%😂
@@Hulaloopops3i9s maybe ,for example ,Tibetan grammar and Japanese(Korean) grammar is close ,because they are all close with ancient Chinese grammar .many ancient Chinese words can be found both in Tibetan and Japanese (Korean ), and still are used in many Chinese dialects too . but Chinese language has changed too much from old times .the Mandarin and dialect in HongKong Taiwan Shanghai...they are all modern Chinese language group ,their grammar is different from ancient Chinese .you learn some Chinese words will benefit to your life I think,for all Chinese(Tibetan Chinese)&Korean &Japanese can understand Chinese words , it is amazing if you can read some Chinese words .

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…
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))
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.
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 .

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
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.
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 TH-cam and all over the web the most popular dialect to learn is from U-tsang 😢
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.
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

On the other hand, the SPATs used in the periphery of the Rgyalrong people, and in Sertar, Zhaggo and Dawu, are more conversative than the standard Amdo Tibetan of Qinghai province, e.g. the consonant clusters are pronounced closer to the spelling without tendency of reduction, and preservation of final consonant to a greater extent. This could be due to the buffering effect from the mountainous landform and from the archaic Rgyalrong languages.
Just a brief explanation. Amdo Tibetan is further categorized into 4 groupings, different mainly in phonology and vocabulary: Northern(Qinghai & Gansu), Southern(Sichuan), Pastoral and Agricultural. Mutual intelligibility is low between Pastoral and Agricultural. The level of conservativeness is Southern > Northern; Pastoral > Agricultural, hence SP>NP≥ SA>NA. The standard Amdo Tibetan used in media is of NP, and some of the Agricultural ones are so not conservative that they are scoffingly deemed Khams Tibetan.
Thank you !
Are there any associations between the Kham dialect and the Dongzu ethnic minority? Some Dongzu called themselves Kham so I’m curious.
No, Dongzu are related to Thai and they are called Gaeml, the correct spelling of Kam, which is very different from Khams.
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!
I'm from northeast meghalaya ...so beautiful language Tibetan I like much 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
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.
Good job thanks for you ❤❤❤
I want to Know about sino Tibetan people from Tibet...can you please make some videos about this
What kind of dialect do we learn in INDIA?
Tcv
Hi good afternoon བཀྲིས་བདེ་ལེགས་
Im interested in Kham and Amdo.
Can u tell me what language use in rikaze ....n lasa ...just tell me the Google translate language name .
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?
This was informative, thank you.
Is there a Tibetan word for 站樁 meditation?
gom
@@WaMo721 is the word “gom” used to distinguish standing meditation practice from seated meditation practices?
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.
yes! he is a very popular singer, and musician.
@@atmikalima-qm2kxI am a bhutia from sikkim he was famous here too during my childhood especially his song tsomo
Balti is the dialect of tibeto burman language commonly spoken in Baltisatan region of Pakistan and it still has lot of similarities with tibetian language
What about Bhutanese language? (Dzongkha)
I am a han Chinese who can understand tibetan .it is interesting that I can understand almost 80% Dzongka website ,but when I listen to the Bhutanese speaking Dzongka,I can only get 30% the meaning 😂.maybe I never been to Bhutan ,if I try to live in Bhutan for a while ,and study hard, perhaps I can understand more about their talking .
@@Hulaloopops3i9s it is interesting .I am a han Chinese ,actually Chinese language has a lot of dialects too ,for example the people in Beijing can't understand what the locals in HongKong speak .when Tibetan in lhasa listen to Bhutanese speak ,perhaps he can guess 20~40% if he has never met with Bhutanese before ,but a people in Beijing listen to HongKong dialect ,10%，Shanghainese ,15%, Taiwanese dialect ,5~0%😂
@@Hulaloopops3i9s maybe ,for example ,Tibetan grammar and Japanese(Korean) grammar is close ,because they are all close with ancient Chinese grammar .many ancient Chinese words can be found both in Tibetan and Japanese (Korean ), and still are used in many Chinese dialects too . but Chinese language has changed too much from old times .the Mandarin and dialect in HongKong Taiwan Shanghai...they are all modern Chinese language group ,their grammar is different from ancient Chinese .you learn some Chinese words will benefit to your life I think,for all Chinese(Tibetan Chinese)&Korean &Japanese can understand Chinese words , it is amazing if you can read some Chinese words .
@@Hulaloopops3i9s thanks ,basically I am busy all the time ,sorry ....
Great fact🌹🙏
What is the main dialect at riwoche?
Khams
In which dialect does sherpa language fall
u tsang
South-western Tibetic, close to, Tö and Tsang dialects.
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 :(
Those incantations may be Sanskrit, perhaps it is difficult for Google to translate them.
You proud of being chinese or tibetian??
Nice keep it up 🔥🙏
Really interesting Wangmo. Thank you for posting. One question - did you find it difficult to learn U-Tsang? Was it a completely new thing?
its not a differnt language....its 65% interchangeable
what I find is there is little difference in accent or else understandable of all three provinces language
first time viewed your channel, really impressed by your English pronunciation, curious to know if you lived abroad when you were young.
Thanks.
So far, I have not been abroad.
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…
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 🙏
Any language is formed by history and has its own reason for existence. Let's let nature take its course.
@@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))
I a Burman . Love tibetan ❤
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"
Thank you for your attention. People living in the the Himalayas have some similarities in language and culture. Tashi delek.
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.
@@Ranjul_kumar Now balti language is considering as , endanger.
@@evergreenpak9882
Indeed.
People are now preffering Hindi/Urdu over Balti. Might have to take from jobs and stuff.
@@Ranjul_kumar Yes, that's the reason
Thank you for the informative video. I didn’t understand the difference till I watched your video.
It should be slightly different.
Let me correct you. It is not China’s Tibet. It is Tibet ( our motherland )
Our motherland is China. I am in Lhasa of China’s Tibet.
Tibet is the only motherland of all Tibetan people. Not China.
@@wangmoandherfriends5225 We Tibetans don’t believe in whatever Communist Chinese and it’s dog says.
@@wangmoandherfriends5225hi I am from Pakistan gilgit baltistan
I’m from Myanmar and I agree with you.
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 .
I thought they would write it down, since they share the same written language?
@@malorybertie8046 Is it a kind of joke or you mean it seriously?
@@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 .
Please correct spelling of dialect in your title.. I think that is autocorrect mistake?
OK. Thank you very very much😄
Which one has the most similarities with ཆོས་སྐད?
U-Tsang.

Hey is Buddhism still prevalent in modern day Tibet???
Yes, of course. Tibetan people have the right to freely believe in religion.
@@wangmoandherfriends5225 good to hear that. Tashi delek have a good day
@@wangmoandherfriends5225I took a time to read all your comments since you were from Tibet and it's hilarious to see you trying to potray good political image of China even though that's was not necessary nor the context of conversation even asked for. Interesting to see 😂
What about gyalrong
qiangic language, not even tibetic
Nepali rai language also Tibetan language right?
I'm not really sure.
rai has many different languages.but they all are under tibeto-burman language family.
No it doesn't.
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
We originally use Tibetan in our lives, but here we only use English.
Cute.
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.
I am burmese (Burman) and our alphabet is very similar to tibet since it's tibetan burman. But the speaking is quite different.
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 TH-cam and all over the web the most popular dialect to learn is from U-tsang 😢
my god ! you are great !
Thanks. Tashi Delek. @Malory Bertie
You are so gorgeous wangmo la ❤️
Very div
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.
Where is ngari dialect
🥰🥰🥰🥰
I am from baltistan and I spoke balti
Thanks, Tashi delek.
Actually four. Gyarong is a unique one
Hi, I'm from Amdo, And we say ཁྱོད་ཀྱི་མིང་ང་ཅེ་ཟེར་ར། "Chod Jie Meng Nga Je Ser ra"
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
Keep it up, well spoken. བླ་མ་རེ་ལ་ཆོས་ལུགས་རེ་ ལུང་པ་རེ་ལ་སྐད་ལུགས་རེ་ བོད་བྱང་ཕྱོགས་མངའ་རི་རུ་ཐོག་ནས་ ནག་ཆུ་ཁ་ ཨམ་མདོ་ནང་མ་ བར་ སྐད་ལུགས(dialect) ཉེ་པོ་འདུག་་ རངརང་ སོ་སོའི་ཁྱད་ཆོས་ཀྱི་ཚི་ག་་གཞས་དང་ཞབས་བྲོའདྲ་མིན་སྣ་ཚོགས་ཡོད་ Tibetan younger generation must try keep their own dialect. Vernacular language or dialect is important characteristic features of the world.
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"
There are indeed many honorific titles in UTsang dialect.
Sikkimese and dzongkha are quite similar in terms of vocab.
I love AMDO
