The Great Tibetan-Chinese Dictionary ( Tib. Bod rgya tshig mdzod chen mo ; Chinese  藏汉 大 辞典 , Pinyin Zàng-Hàn dà cídiǎn , W.-G. Tsang-Han ta tz'u-tien ) is one of the most important reference works for Tibetan language and culture.

Basically, the work is a Tibetan - Chinese dictionary extended in the direction of a lexicon or an encyclopedia-like dictionary on everyday language, written language and the language of Tibetan Buddhism from almost all areas of Tibetan culture. His Tibetan-language articles were also fully translated into Chinese . The entries are arranged in the order usual in Tibetan reference works.

The main editor was the historian Zhang Yisun (1893-1983). The vice-editors were Zhu Weihan, Nyenshül Khyenrab Ösel, Thubten Nyima, Dorje Gyelpo, Lobsang Thubwang, Lobsang Dorje, a total of over 30 Tibetan and Chinese scholars worked on it. After more than five decades of preparatory work, the work was published in July 1985 by the Nationalities Publishing House in Beijing . It has a total of over 53,000 lexical entries. In the appendix there are tables on the ancestral forms of Tibetan verbs , the sixty-year cycle and a timeline of important events in Tibetan history, as well as photos and illustrations of important Tibetan monuments and a selection of cultural objects, etc.

In its entries, it distinguishes eleven word classes: a distinction is made between transitive verbs, intransitive verbs, nouns, adjectives, pronouns, numerals, prepositions, adverbs, particles, conjunctions and modal particles.
