For anyone serious about learning to speak modern Lhasa Tibetan, verbs are the heartbeat of the language—and this book takes them on as the sole, unwavering focus. Lhasa Verbs: A Practical Introduction, is the fruit of a collaborative effort between Tibetan and Australian scholars. Spanning 780 large‑format pages, the work presents 750 core verbs of the Lhasa dialect, each illustrated with multiple example sentences. Far more than a printed lexicon, the accompanying interactive CD brings the language to life: over 1,100 verb entries and more than 3,500 sentences are recorded by native Lhasa speakers, allowing the learner to hear authentic pronunciation and intonation.
