1 Working with verbs through imperatives Imperatives are used to make requests or to direct commands. Within my own studies, initially, I found working with verbs to be the most difficult aspect of language. With tenses and proper verb conjugation being overly, complicate. However, in spoken Tibetan, verbs are a bit easier to work with because in simple spoken Tibetan (unlike written Tibetan) present tense verbs are usually used for all tenses, with tense particles and their accompanying copulas determining the specific tense. So I found a trick, I started working with verbs in their imperative form and found this to be an very easy way to become familiar with verbs. Here is the table on imperatives from my text, Spoken Tibet Basics Imperatives - Request or Command Words. Please (the most polite) Rated by Importance Please do it. ང Often pronounced da ཨ Affectionate Request Do it. Informal request ང Do it. Stronger request (urgency or possible danger) ཨ Do it. Strong request Do it. For a strong command say Just the verb Command Do! So to begin working with verbs in their imperative state, first, 1. Choose a verb: - to do 2. Chose an imperative: ང and you have the imperative Do it! - ང Other Examples: Don t tease - མ + Listen - ཉན + Come here + ང Study your homework - ནང ང + Don t talk - ས ད ཆ མ ཤད + ཨ It s that easy, I practice giving orders (to myself) and soon I got the knack for verbs. Note: Some imperatives work better in the negative, some need help by adding a noun or verbalizer. Also: don t forget that Verbalizers in spoken Tibetan use their past tense pronunciations for all tenses. Work (noun) ཀ + Verbalizer = ཀ to work / ཀ + ང = the imperative. All of this and more is covered in my free text Spoken Tibetan Basics Free Downloads at: Tibet2009.com
