The Mongolian Alphabet

Modern Mongolian uses Cyrillic script (35 letters). Learn these first — tap a card to see an example.

⚠️ Good news: Mongolian Cyrillic is largely phonetic — once you learn the letters, you can read words. Most letters match Russian Cyrillic. The two unique ones are Ө and Ү.

Key Sounds & Rules

Master these before vocab — they are fundamental to Mongolian.

⚠️ Unlike Chinese: Mongolian has NO tones. But it has vowel harmony and guttural sounds that English doesn't have. Focus on Х (kh) and Ө/Ү first.

Grammar Basics

The five rules you must know before speaking Mongolian.

⚠️ Hardest part: Mongolian grammar is very different from English — verbs go last, suffixes change based on vowel harmony, and there are no articles or gender. But the rules are consistent — far fewer exceptions than English.
