Language

We are moving so quickly that it is entirely unrealistic to learn the local languages.

Mandarin:
Hello -- Nie how
Thanks -- Shay shay

Tibetan dialect of grasslands
Hello -- Too-deh-moe
Thanks -- Ta-du-chay

Tibetan dialect of Lhasa
Hello -- Ta-she-da-leh
Thanks -- Tu-jay-chay

We have Nepalese and Hindi to look forward to.
