The framework of auto speech recognition of Lhasa dialect was established in this paper. Phoneme was chosen as the basic unit for modeling. Then, phonemes set of Lhasa dialect and their Latin transliteration were designed. There were 5568 frequently used monosyllables in the vocabulary. Hidden Markov Models of triphones were established and trained by use of HTK. Word error rate (WER) was 21.81% under the optimal situation.
