You've been drinking the koolaid. Tibetan as only been preserved through a heroic effort to smuggle books over the border to Nepal and India for preservation and duplication.
- FooBarWidget 5y agoSeeing Tibetan and Mongolian scripts in videos of Tibetan and Mongolian locations is "drinking koolaid" now? Are you saying those videos are completely doctored and the signs put up only for the purpose of making those videos? Are you saying they don't actually teach Tibetan and Mongolian language in schools in China? Are you saying that woman in the video is an actor? What exact facts are you disputing? In the mean time, a large part of the Tibetan separatist diaspora in India have lost the ability to read, write and speak Tibetan; and outer Mongolia has only recently begun their efforts to restore traditional Mongolian script, after decades of using Cyrillic.
