Mongolian traditional script / calligraphy

Characters take different shapes depending on their initial, medial, or final position within a word. In some cases, there are additional graphic variations which are selected for better visual harmony with the subsequent character.

The alphabet fails to make several vowel (o/u, ö/ü, final a/e) and consonant (t/d, k/g, sometimes ž/y) distinctions of Mongolian that were not required for Uyghur.[1] The result is somewhat comparable to the situation of English, which must represent ten or more vowels with only five letters and uses the digraph th for two distinct sounds. Sometimes, ambiguity is avoided, because the requirements of vowel harmony and syllable sequence usually determine the right choice. Moreover, as there are few words with an exactly identical spelling, actual ambiguities are rare for a reader who knows the orthography.

@doogiinoohuu Because they use it in Mongolia since 1940s. Just for your info Soviet leader Stalin decided that Mongolia must use Russian Cyrillic instead of traditional Mongolian script which was used since 1206; the time of Genghis Khan. However, since 1991 the Government of Mongolia made several attempts at reintroducing the traditional alphabet but failed due to resistance from some ex-communist rulers of Mongolia. They convinced general public using m.script is harder than using Cyrillic.
