Tips for Mongolian to English translation
Mongolian Cyrillic uses standard Russian letters plus ө and ү. These extra letters represent front rounded vowels specific to Mongolian.
Mongolian long vowels and diphthongs are essential for meaning but can be confusing in writing. о and ө represent different sounds.
Spoken Mongolian in Ulaanbaatar is the standard. Dialects in western Mongolia (Oirat) and Buryat (Russia) differ significantly.
Mongolian traditional script (vertical, left-to-right) is used in Inner Mongolia, China. This translator does not handle the traditional script.
About the Mongolian language
Mongolian is spoken by about 5 million people in Mongolia and by several million more in Inner Mongolia (China). It belongs to the Mongolic language family, which some linguists group with Turkic and Tungusic in a proposed Altaic superfamily.
Mongolia is the most sparsely populated country in the world, known for vast steppes, the Gobi Desert, and a nomadic herding tradition that continues to this day. Genghis Khan and the Mongol Empire (13th-14th centuries) created the largest contiguous land empire in history. Modern Mongolia is a parliamentary democracy with growing mining and tourism sectors.
