Mongol Scripts


Herein is listed some 11 different scripts that have been used to write the Mongol language during the past 800 years from the days of Chinggis Khaan until the present day. The section for each script contains an example of the word "Mongol" in that script along with a brief history of its usage. Many have scans from Mongolian books that chart how the symbols are used compared against another script such as Latin, Cyrillic or Tibetan and have links to more information where available. The examples are my own attempt at reconstructing the script from the information provided.
