147. Speaking Khroskyabs Speaking Tongues

    • Language Learning

Hello Language Lovers and welcome back to a new episode of Speaking Tongues. Today we’re talking about Khroskyabs with Yulha. Yulha is native speaker of this endangered language, from the Tibetan Plateau. She has been working on documenting and revitalizing her mother tongue since her high school and she is optimistic of her work moving into a positive direction. 

In this conversation, we discuss: 


Life and tradition in Tibet and the meaning of “Tibetan-ness”


Using language in Tibet and the role Buddhism plays in language standardization


Oral traditions and storytelling within her community, and collecting sayings and proverbs in Khroskyabs


How space and geography are encoded in Khroskyabs language


Technology changing the way that we're able to conduct revitalization and preservation work with endangered languages
