Notice the kind of English Tsetan uses while talking to the author. How do you think he picked it up?
Tsetan spoke short sentences, direct and simple. His English is simple; vocabulary not rhetorical. Besides he called the author “sir” everywhere. He seems to pay much respect to the author. He apparently was a tourist guide, whaich means daily interactions with foreign tourists. That is where he must have picked up the language from. It is quiet possible that he had broken knowledge of other languages as well.
What do the following utterances indicate? (i) “I told her, through Daniel …” (ii) “It’s a cold,” he said finally through Tsetan.
The author of course did not know Tibetan so he required Tsetan and Daniel to help him to communicate with the locals. So it was always someone helping the author out to communicate, translating his words in Tibetan. First Daniel did to make Lhamo understand what the author was saying. Later, even at the doctor's, Tsetan translated for the author to the doctor what he had to say.
