English Tibetan Dictionary of Modern Tibetan

Goldstein Melvyn C. ; Ngawangthondup Narkyid

Publié en 1984

Livre
Documentaire

The liberalization of political and intellectual life in China and the rise of Tibetan exile communities throughout the world have produced a resurgence of spoken and written Tibetan. These developments, together with increasing contacts between Western scholars and Tibetans, have created a widening circle of English-speakers—in government, business, academia, and elsewhere—who need to speak or write Tibetan with precision and clarity. For these people, and for others who want to communicate with Tibetans in their own language, Professor Goldstein's Dictionary will be an indispensable aid. The first scholarly English-Tibetan dictionary, as well as the only one that is semantically sensitive, this work specifies the Tibetan terms that correspond to the submeanings of a single English term. Containing roughly 16,000 main entries, most of which have multiple subentries, the Dictionary treats a total of 45,000 lexical items. Each entry includes both the written Tibetan orthography and a phonemic notation to indicate pronunciation. Grammatical features are also noted, and all examples of usage are presented with the romanticization of the written Tibetan and phonemic notation of the spoken forms. An introductory essay familiarizes users with the main features of Tibetan grammar.

Livre
Documentaire

The New Tibetan-English Dictionary of Modern Tibetan surpasses existing dictionaries in both scope and comprehensiveness. Containing more than 80,000 lexical items used in political, social, economic, literary, and scientific discourse, this invaluable sourcebook includes the tens of thousands of new words that have been coined or that have come into use since Tibet was incorporated into the People's Republic of China in 1951. The dictionary lists lexical items characteristic of the special written genre that was used by Tibetan government officials up to 1959 as well as new terminology used in the Tibetan exile communities in South Asia. It contains both the core lexical terminology used in everyday life and standard modern writing and many proverbs and sayings that appear frequently in contemporary literary materials. The entries provide spoken pronunciation and thousands of illustrative sentences.

A Manual of Key Buddhist Terms

Lotsawa Kaba Paltseg

Publié en 1997

Livre
Documentaire

Categorization of Buddhist Terminology with Commentary. In order to understand Buddhism clearly, we need to have a good knowledge of Buddhist terminology. This text, written by an 8th-century Tibetan translator named Kaba Paltseg, introduces us to a world of definitive Buddhist terminology. In addition to clearly categorizing many key Buddhist terms, the author provides comprehensive lists with commentaries of the terms through which the reader can learn about the world of Buddhism: its psychology, cosmology, philosophical outlook and other aspects Introduction According to Buddhism, the universe is the co-creation of all beings. Furthermore, it is said that every living being inevitably arises out of a multitude of causes and conditions, and it is one's own actions that determine one's future. To have proper control over one's actions so as to make them result in a positive outcome, one needs to know how an action causes results according to karmic laws. In order to help sentient beings attain these positive, or virtuous, outcomes, which are antithetical to negative outcomes, or suffering, the Buddha gave his teachings. The author of the present text apparently had the same goal in mind when writing this enumeration. By clearly categorizing many key Buddhist terms, the author provides the reader with lists that are easy to memorize. With this knowledge one can develop one's practice, which makes the individual focus on the accumulation of virtue instead of negativity. Of course, many present-day practitioners do not feel it necessary to go so far as to memorize all the relevant terminology. However, since the author also supplies a commentary on the terms, the reader learns a lot about the world of Buddhism, its psychology and its philosophical outlook by studying the terms and their definitions.

Publié en 1998

Livre
Documentaire

Introduction au tibétain standard (parlé et écrit), suivie d'un appendice consacré au tibétain littéraire classique. Ce manuel de tibétain a pour objectif essentiel de présenter la langue standard du Pays des Neiges, formée à partir du parler de Lhassa, telle qu'elle est pratiquée de nos jours aussi bien au Tibet que dans la diaspora. Les auteurs se sont attachés à replacer la langue dans son environnement naturel, au Tibet, mais ils ont voulu aussi faire connaître, au fil des leçons ou dans les annexes thématiques, certains éléments fondamentaux de la civilisation tibétaine et du bouddhisme vajrayàna. Cette méthode comporte une introduction consacrée à la langue tibétaine (présentation, prononciation et transcription des sons, écriture), une première partie comprenant quarante et une leçons et une seconde partie composée de neuf annexes traitant du tibétain littéraire classique et dé divers points linguistiques ou grammaticaux. L'une des annexes présente une série de tableaux récapitulatifs. L'ouvrage est illustré par de nombreux dessins, par des photographies en couleur et comporte deux cartes - circonscriptions administratives, aire linguistique tibétaine - réalisées par Christophe Gigaudaut. Il se termine par trois glossaires et une bibliographie.
