Synopsis:
The new, revised edition of this renowned work on modern colloquial Tibetan with 16,000 main entries and 29,000 sub-entries. Essential for everyone who needs to write or speak Tibetan: scholars, students, travelers, government officials and business people, this is the first scholarly dictionary of its kind by one of the world's leading lexicographers of modern Tibetan.

"This dictionary is wonderful, the best available from English into any language of the Tibeto-Burman family...the phonetic and grammatical introduction is excellent."James A.Matisoff.

"Goldstein's dictionary is superb in that it provides idiomatic usage in Tibetan, proper orthography in Tibetan script and transcription, and phonemic equivalences. Goldstein has already become the leading authority on modern Tibetan lexicography. His dictionary will be an invaluable reference tool in this field. I would expect everyone who is seriously into Tibetan studies to want a copy."Turrell V.Wylie.
