The Ongoing Suppression of the Tibetan Language The Tibetan language has been laboring under much more significant threats than most others over the past few decades, as China continues to consolidate their control over the occupied country. It comes as a shock to many in the outside world to learn that even the act of learning Tibetan within Tibet itself can lead to persecution from the Chinese government. A recent report out of Tibet claimed two brothers were arrested for the crime of trying to promote the Tibetan language [...] Tenzin Dhondub has helped the dreams of many young Tibetans come true since 1994. He started a language school in his home courtyard, where he taught English, Tibetan, Chinese and computer skills. With time, this school grew into the the Dung-Dkar School of Languages.

Tibetan is a language spoken by approximately 6 million people across the Tibetan Plateau. It belongs to the Tibeto-Burman group, which itself belongs to the Sino-Tibetan (or Sino-Thai) family. Spoken Tibetan includes dozens of regional dialects and sub-dialects which, in many cases, are not mutually intelligible. The classical written form is a major regional literary language, particularly in use in Buddhist literature. Tibetan is written with an Indic script, but this Freelang dictionary uses a romanized transcription.
