ABSTRACT:
The present volume, the third of a four-part report on the Tibeto-Burman languages of Nepal, includes text materials on Burung, by Warren Glover;
on Tamang, by Doreen Taylor, and on Thakali, by Annemarie Hari and Anita
Maibaum. For each language, a list of included texts is given, with the
native language divided into sequentially-numbered sentences and followed
by a literal English translation, usually morpheme-by-morpheme. Grammatical
notes are included at the end of each set of texts, which explain
abbreviations and letters in the literal English translation lines and
any intonation symbols in the native language lines. See AL 002 731-2
and AL 002 734 for Parts I, II, and IV of this report. [Not available
