Best Answer

Fully ordained Buddhist nuns are called bhikkhunisand the monks bhikkhus. Chinese nuns possess the fullbhikkuni ordination, while Tibetan nuns do not. In Thailand, a country which never had a tradition of fully ordained nuns (bhikkhuni), there developed a separate order of non-ordained female renunciates called Mae Ji.
