I often get asked where I'm from, so I wanted to share with the world about my country Bhutan. A small himalayan kingdom nestled in between two giants, China and India.
In today's video, i am going to teach you how to speak Dzongkha, the national language of Bhutan.
There are two ways of speaking Dzongkha:
1. Formal or honorific
2. Informal or casual
Important TIP:
If you add the word "LA", you can elevate any sentence to a more respected one even when spoken in causal Dzongkha.
