Classical Language
Classical Tibetan
Companion: Tenzin
"Classical Tibetan translator at the Library of Tibetan Works and Archives in Dharamsala. He has never been to Tibet. He knows it entirely through language — through the texts that describe it, through his parents' Lhasa dialect, through the 108 volumes of the Kangyur he has spent ten years translating."
The Chain
Classical Tibetan sits in a language chain — learners arrive from Tibetan and can continue into Sanskrit.
