Abstract

The language of Xizang and Chinese Medicinal Names is a bilingual dictionary of drug names in the language of Xizang and Chinese. The book, also known in Mongolian as Medicine Name The language of Xizang and Chinese Annotations, was compiled by Gonbujab in the first half of the 18th century, using both Chinese and the language of Xizang languages. This study primarily focuses on a comparative analysis of soil-based medicines documented in this dictionary. By collecting materials and utilizing classical works of Mongolian medicine such as Meng Yao Zheng Dian and the language of Xizang medical texts like Jing Zhu Ben Cao, the research compares and studies twenty soil-based drugs recorded in the dictionary. The study involves a comprehensive compilation and literature review of the properties, flavors, sources, and efficacies of these medicines.
