First published in 1834, this was the first known dictionary of Tibetan, by the founder of the field of Tibetology. Containing over 20,000 entries with English translations, it begins with a useful guide to understanding Tibetan words, and the entries themselves are arranged primarily under the language's thirty consonants.
