Description

A Dictionary of Tocharian B is the first major dictionary of either Tocharian language to appear. It attempts to include all known Tocharian B words, including the large number of Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit borrowings, with as complete a record of meaning, morphology, and etymology as is currently possible. Relevant contextual examples are provided where possible. It also contains a reverse, English-Tocharian B, index including a general index, and index of proper names, an index of names of meters, and an index of words of unknown meaning. This volume is of interest to both students of Tocharian B trying to work their way through Tocharian B texts and to Tocharianists and Indo-Europeanists who are interested in the connection of Tocharian to the rest of Indo-European. Bibliographical references provide a reasonably complete history of lexical and etymological research in Tocharian B.
