About the Script
How To Write Tibetan
Tibetan is a syllabic alphabet much like those of India and consists of consonants
with vowel signs. The Tibetan script also contains symbols for 'conjunct consonants' representing a sequence of consonants.
Historically, Tibet was a center for Buddhist religion and scholarship, and the language included Sanskrit loan words. Recent political events have caused closer ties with China, so that some Chinese fonts include Tibetan characters.
For more information on the
script, see the following

Note: Depending on the region, some forms of Tibetan may also be written in Devanagari or the Arabic script (Pakistan)
