Summary
This book is made up of 15 lessons in which the author covers the grammar of the Lhasa colloquial. A number of examples are given in sentences, and the difference between the literary and the colloquial is explained. There is no book out there that so well explains the usage of the Tibetan verb-endings. This is due to the fact that the author does not use English grammar as a model for teaching Tibetan grammar.
