PREFACE

In the early 1990's, while teaching physics at Sera

Mey Thoesam School, I discovered that there were very few

science books written in Tibetan language, and that in order

for students to learn many subjects like science, that they

needed to know English. Similarly, while teaching English in

Lhasa and at Ganden Norling School in Mundgod, I

observed that there was no practical phrasebook of English

for Tibetan-speakers. Also, I have known many Tibetan-

speakers living in foreign countries, as well as those dealing

with foreign tourists in Tibet and south Asia, who could use

a practical phrasebook of English. Therefore I have under-

taken the task to produce this phrasebook. This book is

intended to serve as a quick reference tool, primarily for

spoken English, rather than a discourse in English grammar

and written English. However, for quick practical English

usage, I hope this book will be useful. Finally, I must mention

that I am American and not a native Tibetan speaker, and

have only limited formal training in Tibetan language. There-

fore, I request patience with any shortcomings in my Tibetan

writing.

Furthermore, I must add that I am neither qualified

nor interested in engaging in or supporting any activities that

intend to aggravate the relationship between Tibetan and

Chinese people and their political representatives. It is my



hope that this book will be used for the purposes of widen-

ing Tibetans' personal perspective of the outside world and

understanding of rich and vast international cultures, and for

promoting peace and friendship in the world. May the world

be free of biased and discriminated thinking, speech and

action on the basis of ethnicity, religion, and gender, not only

as a prayer, but as a real practice in each persons' everyday

life.
