Examples

“He came from a town called Jainca, in the eastern part of Qinghai, close⟳ to the borders of Gansu and Sichuan. His father was Tibetan, his mother Han, an unusual combination. The reverse is often true, for Han men stationed in Qinghai take⟳ native women for wives, but it is rare that a Han woman marries a Tibetan: To do so she must break⟳ with her family, a thing almost akin to death for most Han. But then Lobsang’s father must have⟳ been an extraordinary man. He spoke of him seldom but when he did his words were respectful. His mother he spoke of continuously, with great love⟳. He sent her most of his salary, which in Jainca probably enabled her to live⟳ like⟳ a queen.”
