      Unknown Chinese isn't really a language.
      most people in China speak mandarin which was a language from the north. the ancient Chinese language were more like Cantonese nowadays.
      mandarin was a foreign language which was like Mongolian for Chinese people. after mandarin people invaded China , they forced Chinese to speak their language and cut their ugly ass haircut. and Chinese government considered mandarin as an official language was because it was easier to learn.

      I’m Chinese and no it doesn’t sound close to Mandarin Chinese or any other Chinese dialect to me for that matter. In fact, most Chinese people would find some of the words in Mongolian language very hard to pronounce. That said however there has been some borrowing of loanwords between Mandarin Chinese and Mongolian throughout history due to frequent close contact.
      “Cherry” in Mandarin: 櫻桃兒 yingtao’r
      “Cherry” in Mongolian: интор intor
      “Peach” in Mandarin: 桃兒 tao’r
      “Peach” in Mongolian: тоор toor
      “Mushroom” in Mandarin: 蘑菇 mogu
      “Mushroom” in Mongolian: мөөг möög
      “General” in Mandarin: 將軍 jiangjun
      “General” in Mongolian: жанжин janjin
      “Candle/Wax” in Mandarin: 蠟 la
      “Candle” in Mongolian: лаа laa
      “Roadstop” in Mandarin: 站 zhan
      “Road” in Mongolian: зам zam
      “Vinegar” in Mandarin: 醋 tsu
      “Vinegar” in Mongolian: цуу tsuu
      “Cabbage” in Mandarin: 白菜 baitsai
      “Cabbage” in Mongolian: байцаа baitsaa
      “Princess” in Mandarin: 公主 gongzhu
      “Princess” in Mongolian: гүнж günzh
      Traditional Chinese weight measure: 斤 jin
      “Weight” in Mongolian: жин jin
      “Calendar” in Mandarin: 皇曆 huangli
      “Calendar” in Mongolian: хуанли huanli
      Just to name a few, there are in fact many more. It is said that the Chinese name for “Russia” (俄羅斯; Eluosi) is also a loanword from the Mongolian language, because the Mongolians first came into contact with the Russians and they could not pronounce the initial “R” consonant, hence “Russia” which is “Оросын” (Orosyn) in Mongolian has an additional vowel attached to it in the front which was later passed on to Chinese.
      Besides that, there are also some words in Mongolian which are directly translated from Chinese into Mongolian. For instance, “population” in Chinese is “人口 renkou” (literally “people mouth”). This has been directly translated into Mongolian “хүн ам” (hün am; “people mouth”). Other examples include “train” in Chinese which is “火車 huoche” (literally “fire car”) which has been directly translated into Mongolian “галт тэрэг” (galt tereg; “fire car”); and “corn” in Chinese which is “玉米 yumi” (literally “jade rice/grain”) which has been directly translated into Mongolian “эрдэнэ шиш” (erdene shish; “jade grain”).
      Even some of the national dishes of Mongolia and the Buryat region of Russia eg “buuz” (包子) and “khushuur” (火燒兒) are also Chinese loanwords. But Mongolian also contributed vocabulary to Chinese language including the word for “calf” (犢 du) and “mushroom” (蘑菇 mogu). Many Northern Chinese also add consonant particles such as “兒” (er/r) in what is known as “兒化音” or “子” (zi/z) behind words which did not originally exist in ancient Chinese, it is therefore possible that it is a feature borrowed from Mongolian into Chinese.
      There are also plenty of zh/ch/sh sounds, retroflex consonants in Mongolian which is similar to Mandarin Chinese, but ancient Chinese (Old Chinese) did not have these sounds and in many dialects spoken in Southern China today this feature has been preserved where “zh/ch/sh” sounds are omitted and replaced with “t/j” instead.

    Mongolian is a completely different language from Russian - it sounds completely different. The only reason why Mongolian is written in the Cyrillic script (sometimes also known as the "Russian" alphabet) is because of the USSR. In Inner Mongolia (part of China), the Mongolian language is still written in the traditional script instead. Besides I realised there are very few English loanwords in Mongolian, if any at all.
    And if any of you are wondering - no; Mongolian is a completely different language from Mandarin Chinese, Korean or Japanese (not mutually intelligible AT ALL). It is closer to other languages spoken in Siberia & China such as Evenk, Oroqen, Manchu and Buryat (and possibly also Turkic languages like Turkish, Kazakh, Uzbek, Kyrgyz etc.)

    • @YummYakitori
      @YummYakitori 5 років тому +66

      Reasonable
      That’s why I added inverted commas to “Russian” alphabet, because the Cyrillic script was invented in Bulgaria by Saints Cyril and Methodius. The most widely spoken/written language in the Cyrillic script is Russian hence it is almost always referred to as the Russian alphabet in the west

      If the Altaic languages proposal is true, then it would be related to Korean and Japanese. And it probably is slightly related to Chinese, just not much. Mongolia was controlled by China for centuries.

    • @chongtak
      @chongtak 5 років тому +19

      @@williamnorris6184 China was also controlled by diverse Mongolian tribes who got "sinicized" to fit Chinese history of imperial dynasties. As long as I know, Japanese and Korean grammar are mostly the same and my Mongolian and Turkish friends back when I lived in Japan confirmed that their language grammar was very similar. As for Chinese, there is no post position words as in Altaic languages, but the order of words in a long sentence are similar except for the predicate which comes after the verb.

    The whole comment section is so kind, complimenting the language and it actually makes me really happy to know that mongolian isnt that unknown, that there are people who actually learn and study it!
    This video made me homesick for a country that has never been and probably will never be my home, but i still give my thanks out to you!

    If you know Japanese or Korean grammar and structure, the language is quite easy to learn, but the main challenge is hearing and pronouncing.
    For example, танилцах = to know, to be acquainted with
    танилц (verb stem) - ах (infinitive suffix)
    we add -уул- infix to make a causative verb
    танилц (verb stem) - уул - ах (infinitive suffix) => танилцуулах = to make sth known; to introduce

Were they Asian people's? and what other ethnic groups were similar to the Turkic people's?

      Korean is not an Altaic language, it never was and never will be. According to the United Nations Organisation for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, the Korean language is the world's most widely spoken isolate language, followed by Basque.
      Languages belonging to the same language family and sharing the same roots / origins tend to have similar basic vocabulary. However, by comparing Native Korean & Mongolian numbers alone, we can see that there are absolutely no similarities.
      1-10 in Korean:
      Hana (하나), Dul (둘), Set (셋), Net (넷), Daseot (다섯), Yeoseot (여섯), Ilgop (일곱), Yeodeol (여덟), Ahop (아홉), Yeol (열)
      1-10 in Mongolian:
      Neg (нэг), khoyor (хоёр), gurav (гурав), döröv (дөрөв), tav (тав), zurgaa (зургаа), doloo (долоо), naim (найм), yes (ес), arav (арав)
      In contrast, Hindi which is an Indo-European language shares similarities in its basic vocabulary with other Indo-European languages like Greek.
      1-10 in Hindi:
      एक दो तीन चार पांच छ सात आठ नौ दस

Since you're so infatuated with wanting to look like a Eurasian. I think you should look at these two videos on youtube : " Turkmen,Uzbeks,Uyghurs turks are eurasians " ....... "Uzbek and turkmen VS Eurasian people " They apparently uploaded by MongolandTamerlane who is apparently Mongolian. Not even Kazakh, Kyrgyz are considered Eurasian by his standard.

    • @PhanteusZ
      @PhanteusZ 9 років тому +2

      Ivelin T.The grammar is not bad at all. Also the words follow the cyrrlic letters. For example, in English, words like Island and Asthma don't sound like what they are written. In Mongolian language, such words don't almost exist. You can predict how the word will sound from the looks of it.
      I do think the sentence structure might be the hardest part.

    • @Kitulous
      @Kitulous 5 років тому +9

      @@PhanteusZ ​ mongolian cyrillic is a WAY less predictable than that of Russian or, in comparison, English.
      In English you can at least predict a little bit close to the reality, at least the consonant part, in Mongolian it looks like a mess (no offence)
      I'm a Russian native speaker so I know Cyrillic very good, and I have been tracking on the subtitles along the whole video. The sound and the text dissynchronized so often that I assure no one except Mongolians themselves cannot read nearly as fluent.
      Take a random passage I stopped the video at:
      Original:
      Та ямар мэргэжилтэй вэ, оороо? (I do not have the barred O so I apologize)
      What a Russian native speaker has heard:
      Ха ямар мырыхчильтэ вэ оро?
      Another random example (randomly skipped through the video):
      Бага хэмжээгээр, Англиар бол бага зэрэг ярьдаг
      What have I heard:
      Багым дцээрэньк шлар ат пахты цэрэге артык (артык, well, is similar to ярьдаг, so I got where the end of the passage was)
      Another one random example to be assured:
      Хуухэд залуусын амрах цэцэрлэгт хурээлэн бас (straight у was not on my keyboard either)
      What have I heard:
      Хухтэ задэсэян армхаян цц (WTF IS THIS CONSONANT BURST OMG I'M OUTTA HERE)
      So now you believe me that it's absolutely unpredictable? Yes, there is a LITTLE correspondence to Cyrillic consonants and vowels, but it's absolutely not anywhere near letter-in-letter.

    I find the faces and culture of Mongols so beautiful and fascinating. They look oriental Asian with an European build with some European features. (may vary). Despite their Asian appearance they speak what looks and sounds like Russian! For someone who doesn't know much about people from Mongolia, they seem to me like genetical beauties with a culture so influenced.

      Apparently the first women in this video is a Kazakh Mongol. She is the only one I though who is Mongolian that look mixed until I read she was a Kazakh (who I think represent like 3-5% of Mongolia population).

      It’s worth noting that the usage of Cyrillic to write Mongolian is a relatively recent development originating from when Mongolia was a Soviet satellite during the Cold War; the Chinese-ruled parts of greater Mongolia still make some use of the original Uyghur-derived alphabet.

    Something about the tone or the language itself that I find very relaxing

    Just being able to make that sound they make would make it one of the hardest if not the hardest language to learn.

    As a turkish person living in France, I find this project very interesting. It is true that the best way of learning a language is to speak with natives. It especially helps for learning the idioms and expression of a language.
    Is there any way I could contact you guys to be part of this project? I'd like to learn more about it!

    I'm really not sure if I want to learn this because I feel I'm going to be in over my head... and yet the more I hear it, the more tempted I am to add this to my growing list of languages I want to learn. 😅😅
