Excerpt from Bibliotheca Indica: A Collection of Oriental Works, Published by the Asiatic Society of Bengal, New Series, No; 1426, Minor Tibetan Texts; The Song of the Eastern Snow-Mountain
Since J aschke's third edition, two new Tibetan dictionaries have appeared. Walsh in an article in the j.a.s.e Vol 72, Pt. 1, n. 2, 1903, reviewing the last one of these, the one by Sarat Chandra Das, says, p. 78: Although the present Dic tionary has fulfilled what it purposed to be, namely, a complete Dictionary of literary Tibetan, so far as our present sources of knowledge go, it does not fulfil the requirements of a standard dictionary of the entire language, and the standard dictionary of the modern and current Tibetan language has yet to be written.'
