New Expanded Glossaries
The Glossary of English Terms has been expanded to include 1850 English entries with full definitions and, where applicable, the Tibetan and Sanskrit equivalents. This glossary, arranged according to the Tibetan entries, constitutes the expanded Glossary of Tibetan Terms. The definitions have been integrated into the articles of the website. In any article, the first occurrence of any term from the glossary is lightly underlined. When the cursor moves over the underlined word, the definition appears in a pop-up window.
