Word genocide qualified right from the beginning. The reason, in fact, is the administration in autonomous area and also outside of the mission of Tibet, Chinese officials put a lot of restrictions - Tibetans study. And last year, or, I think two years ago, I met with some Tibetan student who came from mainland China from Tibet, and study in America. Some of them, see, can not speak Tibetan, only Chinese. So, since they are majority of the population, the minority Tibetan in their daily life, they have to use Chinese language rather than Tibetan. So, these are unintentionally some kind of - all elements of the situation, the Tibetan culture, heritage, including language - degenerate.
