ABSTRACT

The decade expletives are distinctive enough to suggest what number in the tens digit is. The currency used in all Tibetan regions is Chinese Renminbi (RMB) called yuan. The monetary units come before the numeral, opposite of the English word order. The subject, the person who needs/wants something, is marked oblique case with Ladon, while the object is left unmarked. One would expect the verb to want to do something to pattern with a Subject-Ladon verb that people just covered. The statement is not treated as an objective fact but a subjective claim with the speaker’s subjective conviction. The verbs to need, to want to, to like , and to be all right to are so frequently used that the student cannot afford not to master this bit of grammar. The stuffing is mainly minced beef or mutton mixed with fresh sheep oil and seasonings; vegetables are seldom used.
