In 1985, while in UK, I viewed in BBC TV, the grandson of George Everest presenting King Birendra a topographical map of Everest measuring its height as the peak of the earth. During those days, there were controversies about Everest being the highest peak. As a grandson, he wanted to keep in tact the name of his grandfather. Must be in his eighties, he also spoke of why we need to regularly measure the height of Everest. This is to understand the movement of the plateau. The Nepali name Sagarmatha was coined much later, after controversy of its location with China. Chinese claimed that Nepal dont have a local name. Chomolongmo is a Tibetian name therefore Everest belongs to China. So to prove that Nepal do have a Nepali name, it was named as Sagarmatha. The name must have been coined in late 50s or early 60s.
Sagar ko artha taha nahune le kahani sunau6an aru lai . Afu lai taha nabhako kura ta nabolnu ni ani yesta ram kahani aafnai ghar ma sunauda chai beş hola . Sagarmatha ko Sagar vaneko samundra taal pokhari jasta kehi hoina
समुद्रको सतहदेखि उचाइ नाप्ने कुरा ठिक हो तर नाम सगरमाथा त्यो सागर (समुद्र) लाई आधार बनाएर नभई आकाश अर्थ बोक्ने सगर हो। आकाशको शीर, टाउको, माथा भन्ने अर्थमा सगरमाथा रहेको हो। जीब्रो चिप्लँदै गएर सागरबाट सगर भने भएको हैन।
