A Comparative Vocabulary of Some of the Languages Spoken in the Burma Empire
"Francis Buchanan published his âA Comparative Vocabulary of Some of the Languages Spoken in the Burma Empireâ in 1799, in the fifth volume of Asiatic Researches. This piece provides one of the first major Western surveys of the languages of Burma. But the article goes beyond this and provides important data on the ethno-cultural identities and identifications of the various population groups in the first half of Bò-daw-hpayà âs reign (1782-1819)."
