Synopsis: |
Original in concept, broad in scope and rich in content, this remarkable volume presents the living language of Mongolia, contained in some 26,500 main entries and many subsidiary ones. Compiled over thirty years, it has drawn upon contemporary material such as Mongolian newspapers, journals, magazines and books in many fields, purposely avoiding published dictionaries in order to avoid lexicographical stereotypes. The result is a unique and vivid work that keeps pace with a changing language that reflects the rapidly evolving social and political arena of Mongolia today.Ten years after the publication of the first edition, this revised volume contains new material that shows the remarkable evolution in the vocabulary of Mongolian in the last few years, especially in relation to business. The language of the dictionary is the modern idiom of the Khalkha language, with keywords in the Cyrillic script and definitions in English. This unique volume is an essential work of reference for students of the Mongolian language, and those whose interest in Mongolia stems from government service, journalism or business. |
