i hope that the grammar can help in anyway those whom are learning the language...... soon , i will publish a comparison between tibetan and so as dzongkha and other related languages


1.1-Let's start with the personal pronouns in Dzongkha


     Personal Pronouns        I-Nga         You-choe        He-Kho       She-Mo        We-Nga ce        you (plural)-Che Cha Chap        They -Khong Cha Chap      

1.2-lets start with the present tense

     iam going-Nga jo do       iam doing-nga gi be do       you are doing-Choe jo de       They are doing-Khong gi be de       She is writting-Mo gi dri do       we are talking-Nga ce lam jo do       She is washing-Mo chu chu de    

Dzongkha language is called SOV or Subject-Object-Verb, not the same as in english, Subject-Verb-Object.

so, instead of saying My name is...... in Dzongkha, you would say My name ...... is, it can be difficult, for those who confuse the word order, or sentence order, but, for those who know similar languages, it will not bring any problem at all
