randall_flagg Posted July 1, 2006 at 09:33 AM Report Posted July 1, 2006 at 09:33 AM Hi! What's the term for novices in a buddhist monastery? I'm looking for a term that could apply both to women and men. Thanks, Randall Quote
roddy Posted July 2, 2006 at 02:09 AM Report Posted July 2, 2006 at 02:09 AM I would use [POP=túdi]徒弟[/POP] - disciple, apprentice. Could well be a more accurate word though. Quote
badatpool Posted July 2, 2006 at 05:27 AM Report Posted July 2, 2006 at 05:27 AM 弟子，一般也称为门徒，或者学生。There are different names according to age and level of study though. Quote
