Gnári Khórsum, a province in the central part of Tibet.

མངའ་རིས་སྐོར་གསུམ mnga'-ris-skor-gsum Tib.

"The three dependent provinces." Mgna'-ris, dependent, skor, circle, province,
gsum, three.
This interpretation alone agrees with the native spelling, as we invariably got it written.
The name dependency was referred to its political relation to China. The pronunciation
we generally found to be Gnári in accordance with our usual mode of writing it.

Goal might be thought too to be a provincial modification of gáyal, the Hindostáni name
for Bos gavaeus, an animal peculiar to lower Assám; but in Assám itself this animal is only
known under the name of Mithan.
