Syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic-epistemic functions of auxiliaries in Western Tibetan
There are two basic auxiliary verbs for `to be' which seem to be used in all Tibetan varieties including, of course, Written Tibetan (WT). In terms of WT, one yin and the other is yod. In a sentence they occur either as finite verb forms (usually in final position), or enter as auxiliary morphe...

| description | There are two basic auxiliary verbs for `to be' which seem to be used in all Tibetan varieties including, of course, Written Tibetan (WT).

In this paper, only the first usage will be exemplified. |
