This document collects observations, questions, and small write-ups (sometimes in Tibetan) about the journey of learning Tibetan. It’s quite personal, so the diary will be about my daily life and don’t expect it to be exciting considering the beginner stage I am still at 😆. It’s more for people that have similar level to see my struggles or realizations.
Language Questions
As Tibetan language questions arise arise I write them on this shared (with other class mates and course staff) Google Doc and you are welcome do contribute by adding more or answering them. If you see a 🤔 in this document it also expresses doubt and needs to be checked with tutor.
Tasks
Some tasks or ideas to go to if I don’t have anything specific:
- Vocabulary: Anki flashcard decks.
- Listening: Dialogs from the book, or Esukhia audio children stories, or A1-level tracks like this ones.
- Reading: Anything, even if I don’t understand. དཔེ་ཆ་, children book, or སྦྱོར་ཀློག (spelling).
- Speaking + Writing: Self Record Explaining Day + Transcript Analysis
- Questions: Transfer to-questions-doc marked questions to Tibetan Language Questions Google Shared Doc so everyone benefits.
Color Coding
I color code things usually as: correct, incorrect, verify, attention
