The Brokpa language (, (ゾンカ語:Bjokha)), also called the "Mera-Sakteng language" after its speakers' home regions, is a Southern Tibetic language spoken by about 5000 people mainly in Mera and Sakteng Gewogs in the Sakteng Valley of Trashigang District in Easte Bhutan. Brokpa is spoken by descendants of pastoral yakherd communities.〔 Roger Blench has also recently named a language complex called Senge spoken in three villages northwest of Dirang in West Kameng district.〔http://www.rogerblench.info/Language/South%20Asia/NEI/Bodish/Senge%20cluster/Sengres.htm〕 Dondrup (1993:3) lists the following Brokpa villages. *West Kameng district * *Lubrung * *Dirme * *Sumrang * *Nyokmadung * *Undra 〔first letter missing in book〕 * *Sengedrong *Tawang district * *Lagam * *Mago * *Thingbu * *Lakuthang *Bhutan * *Saklang * *Marale The 1981 census counted 1855 Brokpa people in Arunachal Pradesh. ==See also== *Languages of Bhutan 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brokpa language」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
