མགྲོན་ཤོག

Hello Dirk,

Could you help me finding the meaning of this word:
མགྲོན་ཤོག

Here is some context:
རྒན་ལགས་ལ་མགྲོན་ཤོག་བཏང་ཚར་ཡིན། ཁོང་ཕེབས་ཀྱི་རེད།

Yes. Do you recognize the wordbits?

For example, you might know: མགྲོན་ ཁང་།

Or you might have heard: “ཤོག་ད!” or “འདིར་ཤོག!” (hint: it’s related to འགྲོ་ / ཡོང་ / etc)

Do you have a guess what they could mean together, in that context?

I remember watching a video from Trashi where he says ཤོག using as “come”. Like as “come here”. But after class I understood it as “letter”. Is that the meaning?

“come” is correct.

so མགྲོན་ཤོག་ བཏང་ might mean?

btw, i don’t know for sure, either. actually, your comment just now made me think ཤོག་ could come from ཤོག་གུ་, “paper”… but my guess would be the same either way :slight_smile:

Means that the letter was sent, right?

An invitation, yes. :slight_smile: མགྲོན་ is a guest (like མགྲོན་ཁང་, guesthouse), so I am guessing you are inviting them to something.

“I’ve already sent an invitation to our teacher. They’ll be coming.”
